In the clip, shot from the pair's rooftop balcony, a small, orange light can be seen bouncing around the frame as the sun sets in the background.
Some believe that unexplained lights in photos or videos can be orbs from the spirit world.
Molly's next post was a screenshot of a direct message from a fan in response to the clip.
The follower had written: "There is an orb on your screen… That's your dog" alongside a heart emoji.

Molly captioned the post: "My followers" - adding a crying face and white heart.
She added: "I was literally speaking about him when I was taking this video."
Molly and Tommy were left devastated earlier this month when their new puppy died just days after arriving from Russia.
Mr Chai was the influencer's birthday gift from the boxer, and they had already faced backlash for importing the pet.
Just two days after his arrival, they realised that something "wasn't right" and took the pup to the vet - and were heartbroken when told he'd had a seizure and passed away.

The pair opened up about the tragic moment in an emotional YouTube video, with Molly breaking down in tears as she admitted Tommy "vomited everywhere" upon hearing the news - and that they initially thought it was a cruel prank.
Explaining they paid for a fast-track autopsy, the star added: "Chai's skull wasn't fully developed. Part of his brain was exposed. In a tiny dog, any knock probably wasn't very helpful."
However, Molly and Tommy were targeted by animal lovers, who attacked the couple on social media for using a Cheshire-based breeder who openly imports their pets from abroad.
They were branded "ignorant", "selfish" and "image obsessed" by enraged Twitter users, who flocked to social media to share their views.
However, Molly remained adamant in the YouTube video that it was not the plane journey that killed poor Mr. Chai - also insisting that he was almost five-months-old and had all of his vaccinations before they took him out and about in Manchester.

She said: "Whilst we completely understand everyone's opinions about being shipped over from Russia, what you need to understand is that is not what made him die."
On the jabs, she added: "Chai had every single one - we have the paperwork. He was four and a half months old."
