The post, which has a whopping 16 million views, was titled: ‘Be mad about this one, Karen.’

Her “bonus son” comment is referencing the fact the boy is her stepson, but the video has still confused many viewers.

“What is a bonus son?” asked one person.

Another added: “I thought that was your actual son and was like you had him at 11?

“That math doesn’t add up, someone help me to understand,” commented a third.

In a follow-up post, Courtney Lee answered people’s questions about her stepson.

One viewer asked: “I don’t get what you mean by bonus son. Could you explain it? I am new to your videos and love them by the way. Sorry if this upsets you.”

“I am not offended,” she replied.

“Being a bonus mother is earned, the stepmother is just someone who marries the dad.”

The post has been viewed over 232,000 times.

“Oh, I like that – bonus mum has a good ring to it,” commented one person.

“I was so curious. Glad to get this answered,” said another.

“Bonus son/mum is a nicer term than saying stepson or stepmum,” commented a third.
