When a fan asked her if it was in fact her bridal gown on Instagram's 'Ask Me Anything' feature, Scarlett misread the comment. 

A fan said: 'Did you get married in that dress?' and she replied: 'I did.' 

However, after realising the confusion she had caused, the bubbly personality has now shared that she made a mistake in answering the question.

Mocking her mishap, she cleared up the situation by once again taking to her social media stories.

Alongside a selfie of herself grinning and putting a thumbs up she typed: 'Who's the dumb person who said I did instead of I did get it made ...MEEE.' alongside a string of crying with laughter emojis. 

The bright gown that sparked the marriage rumours was designed by Agata Nicole and they shared more pictures of Scarlett wearing their stunning design.
