A MUM has come under fire after she ruined her daughter’s adorable pregnancy announcement.
Letting your closest ones know that the family is about to grow more is always an exciting moment that’s about to be cherished forever.
But while some parents-to-be opt for more intimate reveals, others come up with cute ideas, like one mum Olena Perez recently did.
The mum, from the US, decided to share the wonderful news during a family outing in Florida – however, it didn’t quite go to plan.
In her head, Olena would get a stranger taking a photo of her and her brood with scenic greenery in the background.
As everyone would be striking their best poses, she’d then whip out the positive pregnancy test from her purse and surprise the lot – and the happy reactions would be forever saved in a wholesome clip.
Sadly for the young mum, the video didn’t turn out that way – with the footage going viral on TikTok for all the wrong reasons.
In the video, Olena could be seen standing next to her family as she approached the person behind the camera and instructed him to keep filming.
As everyone is standing next to each other ready for what they think is a photo, Olena proceeds to stop for a moment and look for a lipstick in her bag.
But instead of pulling make-up out of her bag, she whipped out a pregnancy test – which she immediately showed to her mother.
Olena’s mum appeared to be confused looking at the positive test and even tapped on her arm a few times, as if to tell her daughter to cut it out.
”I’m pregnant,” Olena explained to her mum and the rest of the family – who seemed just as uninterested as Olena’s mother.
While there were a few cheers, it was certainly not the reaction the mum-to-be was expecting, as she quickly went to grab her phone from the camera guy.
”Oh my God… Thank you.”
She wrote alongside the viral footage: ”Lmaooo, my mum was not letting my pregnancy announcement ruin her photo.
”My mum loves a good pic!”
‘No offence but what kind of family is this?’
Since being posted online, where Olena regularly shares content under the username @olena.perez, the clip has gone viral, winning her close to 25million views.
As 2million people gave it a like, over a whopping 21k flooded to comments where Olena’s mum came under fire.
One gobsmacked person said: ”I’m glad you’re starting your own family….cause I don’t know what this is….”
Another wondered: ”No offence but what kind of family is this?”
A third joked: ”they’re like this could’ve been an email.”
”Everyone seems miserable, girl I’m sorry,” a TikToker said.
”she’s begging someone to show a little bit of excitement 🙁 come on family do better!” someone else typed.
