YouTuber NikkieTutorials – real name Nikkie de Jager – was robbed at gunpoint at her Netherlands home.

The star, who vlogs about beauty tips, took to Twitter to confirm reports she had been burgled while at home with her boyfriend Dylan Drossaers.

“Earlier today one of my biggest nightmares became reality when we got robbed under gunpoint at our own home,” she said. “Dylan and myself got attacked but physically we are okay. Mentally it’s a whole other story.”

Dutch police tweeted: “Just reported a robbery on a house in #Uden. The perpetrators threatened the residents with possibly a firearm and took an unknown loot from them.

“There are at least 3 perpetrators who fled in a beige passenger car towards the A50. One of the residents suffered superficial injuries.”

Fellow beauty influencers and YouTubers left messages of support on de Jager’s Instagram post.

De Jager, 26, has over 13 million followers. She recently came out as transgender after claiming someone was trying to publicly out her.
