Busted! Actor Columbus Short is 'caught cheating' by video vixen wife Karrine Steffans who airs their dirty laundry on social media 

Their social media accounts showed only signs of newlywed bliss since it emerged actor turned singer Columbus Short had married Karrine Steffans earlier this year.

But just a few weeks after the 33-year-old declared his love for his new wife in the music video for his debut single, it appears the relationship has already turned sour.

Steffans, who rose to fame as a video vixen turned author, revealed her wrath on Instagram after claiming to have caught Short cheating on Monday night before proceeding to air the couple's dirty laundry online.

Karrine Steffans posted this picture of Columbus Short on Instagram and claimed he had cheated on her, writing: 'Somebody come get @officialcshort cheating a** and all his s***'

Steffans also called out her husband's alleged infidelity on Twitter, writing: '@ColumbusShort1 Out here f****** everything moving, ain't got a penny to his name and no place to live. N****, bye'

One picture shows Short sitting solemnly in a chair while his clothes have been strewn all over the floor of what appears to be the lobby of an undisclosed building. An open suitcase lies empty nearby.

With a black hooded top hiding much of his face, Short appears to be concentrating on charging his phone.

It is captioned: 'Somebody come get @officialcshort cheating a** and all his s***.' Steffans, 37, also tagged multiple women she alleges Short had cheated with in the post.

She then posted a video which shows her approaching Short, who remains in the chair. 

'Nobody has anything to say. Nobody has anything to f****** say,' she says, before adding: 'Oh hey, Columbus. You OK? You feeling OK?'

Short is heard mumbling quietly in reply, but remains calm and apparently collected as he continues charging his phone.

Steffans also took to Twitter to to call Short out over his alleged infidelity, suggesting that he is struggling financially and that she has thrown him out of their home.

'@ColumbusShort1 Out here f****** everything moving, ain't got a penny to his name and no place to live. N****, bye,' she wrote.

Hours later, Short took to Twitter, acknowledging that he is now homeless - although made no mention of the cheating allegations.

'Just want to say.... that it's unfortunate that way things end up. I felt truly that a woman gave me a home and a place to get my mind right,' he wrote.

Implying that their relationship is now over, he wrote: 'I love Karin [sic] and her brilliantly talented son. But toxicity of any kind isn't healthy for anyone.' 

But just a month ago, Short declared his love with Steffans and shared moments from their private wedding ceremony in his debut music video for '50 Shades'.

'This is the side certain people didn't want the world to see but I wanted everyone to know how amazing he is and how happy we are, finally,' Steffans told The Jasmine Brand in February.

'I think our stories, separately and together, are proof of what God can do and of what happens when you are equally yolked and aligned with someone who really just wants the best for you.

She added: 'We have both been in some pretty terrible relationships and marriages and are so blessed to have found each other.

'We took the time to grow our friendship into a partnership and we celebrate that in everything we do, now.'

HIS REPLY: COLUMBUS SHORT'S RESPONSE TO CHEATING ALLEGATIONS 

Just want to say.... that it's unfortunate that way things end up. I felt truly that a woman gave me a home and a place to get my mind right and a place to maturate gifts that I wasn't able to foster, without stability.

I love Karin [sic] and her brilliantly talented son. But toxicity of any kind isn't healthy for anyone. I've been working hard to bring you guys quality moves, music and art. And that's exactly what will continue to happen.

How could you not love a woman who took you in a broken place and allow you to heal. I'm thankful for the journey and it ain't the first time I've been homeless. But it will definitely be the last!

When it'as all said and done stand strong and most of all UNBROKEN......If I'm still standing you have no excuse! #MoreThanConquerers 

Steffans claimed she had legally married Short on social media in January, which sparked controversy as his divorce from Tanee McCall had allegedly not been finalized at the time the nuptials took place, according to Hollywood Life.

McCall filed for divorce in 2014 after eight years of marriage after Short was arrested for domestic violence.

With her filing, she also obtained a temporary restraining order accusing her husband of choking her and threatening to kill her and himself during a fight in April that year.

Short, best known for his role as Harrison Wright on ABC’s Scandal, avoided jail after pleading guilty to misdemeanor domestic violence.

But he was axed from the Shonda Rhimes series after he was charged in two criminal cases, one for spousal battery and another of felony assault after he seriously injured a man during an altercation at a West Hollywood restaurant.

He avoided jail a second time after pleading no contest to a felony count of assault likely to cause great bodily injury after he knocked out the man and broke his nose.

The former dancer has also claimed he had a brief fling with Britney Spears (pictured performing with Short at a concert in September 2003) when he worked as her back-up dancer

Short was sentenced to three years' probation and two months of community labor, and he must take 26 anger-management classes. 

He later revealed in an interview with Hollywood Access Live that he was asked to depart the hit drama due to his abuse of cocaine and alcohol.

'I was struggling with drugs,' he admitted. 'I had a lot on my plate, and you know, I was using unhealthy ways to kind of self-medicate and deal with a lot of heavy duty stuff in my life.'

His latest scandal led to 'Columbus Short' trending on Twitter with many users lampooning the actor's resolve to remain calm as well as commenting on the former actor’s legal troubles which led to his firing from the hit show.

'Columbus Short keeps finding ways for Shonda to not write Harrison back into the script,' wrote one.

'Jeez, Columbus Short could really use Olivia Pope right now,' added another, referring to Kerry Washington's character on the show.

He has been married twice before – to McCall and previously, Brandi Short. He has two children, one from each marriage.

The former dancer has also claimed he had a brief fling with Britney Spears in 2003 when he worked as her back-up dancer.

This led to the demise of his first marriage to Brandi Short, who was eight months pregnant at the time.

Speaking about their relationship in 2004, he told Star magazine: 'It's true I slept with Britney, [but] we never had sex because another person was in the room at the time.

‘We shared a bed and were really close, kissing and hugging. The chemistry was magical... our feelings were so strong.

‘Britney's mom, Lynne, stepped in to prevent that as soon as our feelings started to develop.' 

Meanwhile, Steffans was previously married to actor Darius McCrary and has a son with ex-boyfriend Kool G Rap.

She became a New York Times bestselling author after publishing her controversial memoir, 'Confessions of a Video Vixen'.

In the book, she detailed her life as a dancer in hip-hop music videos and claimed she had sexual relationships with big names in the music industry, including Jay-Z, P Diddy and Usher.

Daily Mail Online has contacted representatives of Short and Steffans for comment.
