‘When an innocent Tiktok divides the internet, goes viral makes news headlines,’ she wrote in her caption.

‘Firstly, sorry to my step Dad Phil for all the unwanted attention LOL! Secondly, let me educate the masses who saw this as “disturbing” and “inappropriate.”‘

The influencer went on give an explanation for the ‘innocent’ clip.

‘Guys, it’s a hot, Australian Christmas. Our family spent it by the pool, hence the swimwear,’ she added.

‘We both have a good sense of humour and always like to do stupid things to make others laugh and get a reaction. This is purely all this video is. A reaction.

‘People SERIOUSLY need to lighten up, stop projecting their issues, educate themselves on what a typical Australian Christmas involves and stop creating a fake reality in their minds.

Karina raised eyebrows recently by posting a video of herself performing a risqué dance with her stepfather on TikTok.

Baffled, Karina’s stepfather asked her, ‘What the f**k are you doing?’.

‘Introducing my step Dad to my Tiktok… Do you think he approves?’ Karina wrote in the caption. 

Critics have since labeled the video ‘disturbing’ and ‘inappropriate’.

‘I find what you are doing in front of him and the way he looks at you mildly disturbing,’ one TikToker commented, while another added: ‘So many things go wrong here’.

‘A bit weird, is that her dad? So strange,’ another user agreed, while someone else wrote: ‘If it’s a joke..it’s a gross joke.’ 

Others found Karina’s antics amusing, however, with one commenting: ‘Love your dad’s reaction!’ 

‘Hahaha love your videos Karina. Also lovely to meet your step dad! Sorry Tiktok is weirdos and think y’all are dating,’ another commented.

It comes days after Karina sparked backlash by revealing that she refuses to discuss remuneration with potential employees of her bikini brand. 

During a Q&A with her Instagram fans, the designer was asked about the most common mistakes prospective employees make during her company’s job interviews. 

‘At the end I ask if you have any questions. People blow it by not asking any questions at all or asking about salary/sick and holiday pay,’ she wrote.

She added: ‘If you’re successful, you’ll get to come in for a few hours for a trial and at the end we can talk details. This shows me you’re not just thinking about yourself but also your future in my company.’

Her bold approach ruffled the feathers of many of her fans who clapped back at her ‘exploitative’ hiring practices.

One angry fan responded with, ‘My biggest red flag would be if my prospective employer refused to discuss remuneration in the interview.’

Another upset follower said Karina was engaging in ‘exploitative’ behaviour which reflected poorly on her.
