“I’m completely shocked, especially since we were cooperating with the investigation and offered to voluntarily surrender her if she were charged. We look forward to clearing her name in court,” Prieto added.

Prieto also told that his client was in Hawaii for substance abuse rehabilitation and treatment for post-traumatic stress disorder.

Officials in Miami say they will explain the arrest at a press conference on Thursday.

Clenney, who enjoys over two million followers on Instagram, allegedly stabbed Obumseil in the chest on April 3 following a fight at their luxury apartment building in Miami’s ritzy Edgewater neighbourhood.  An investigation was launched soon after.

Her lawyers have claimed that the killing was justified as she acted in self-defence.

Authorities say that the couple had been dating for less than two years and that she had been arrested for domestic battery in Las Vegas. Police in Austin, Texas, and also reportedly been called to their home on multiple occasions.

They had only been living in the One Paraiso building in Edgewater, Florida, for several months, where managers had dealt with several domestic disturbance complaints and were moving to evict them, according to The Herald.

Police in Miami had been called to their apartment to deal with a domestic disturbance call on 1 April, then two days later the suspect called 911 to report that the victim had been stabbed.

TMZ showed video footage of the influencer being covered in blood and she was handcuffed.

Christian's brother Jeffrey Obumseli said he was a star athlete and captain of his high school football team and had a bright future.

"My brother was so caring, my inspiration, an inspiration to others," he said. "He was a friend to everyone, very caring, funny, very bright, he had big dreams."
