However, Ruby was quick to reassure fans that she was ‘all good’ as she replied to some of the comments.
MailOnline have contacted Ruby’s representatives for comment.
Ruby’s latest post comes after she revealed she took a tumble in a humorous video shared to her Instagram on Thursday.
The comic was seen sitting on the ground laughing while a giggling pal filmed her, after having tripped over a hole in the ground.
Ruby took her fall in good spirits, captioning her post: ‘My life. Falling in holes.’
Meanwhile, the TV personality and mental health advocate has been documenting her healthy lifestyle on social media of late.
Just last week she shared a video of herself enjoying cold water therapy as she sat in a barrel full of ice water.

Ruby previously sparked concern amongst fans once again back in 2023 with her appearance from a hospital bed as she promoted her latest book discussing mental health.
The comedian has been very open with her audiences in her battle with depression over the years, and in 2022 admitted that the illness that made thoughts ‘so agonising it’s hard to stay alive’.
And in a post to her 103,000 followers on Instagram in January 2023, Ruby’s fans have asked of her wellbeing as she sat on a hospital bed to talk about her book, ‘I’m Not As Well As I Thought I Was’.
Having been staying in Cape Town to train as a castaway marooned alone on an island for a movie, Ruby had been showing her day-to-day activities.
She learned how to kindle a fire and build a shelter, following in the footsteps of Joanna Lumley who did a similar thing twenty years ago with her BBC show Girl Friday.

However the trip has appeared to take a turn as she ended up showing footage of herself in hospital instead of exploring island life.
Fans were quick to send Ruby their well wishes with many concerned at seeing her in hospital with a monitor attached to her heart.
One wrote: ‘Wtf. hope u ok In hospital bed Ruby ….. cyber hug of soothing vibes coming your way.’
Another added: ‘Can’t wait to read it…. But are you ok Hun?As we can see you are in hospital…. X’
A third said: ‘ I hope you’re going to be OK my ex wife has been in hospital for nearly two weeks now.’
