‘Dumbest gender reveal ever,’ trolls rage over couple’s VERY ‘unique’ celebration to find out what they’re having
A COUPLE have been slammed by trolls after a video of their very ‘unique’ gender reveal went viral.
The parents, who already have two daughters, were looking forward to finding out the sex of their third child who was on the way.
They filmed themselves standing together, with a scenic background and shared the video to their TikTok page @themajorkeyes.
And since posting it, the couple, who have 299,000 TikTok followers, have gained over 3.1 million views.
The video shows the couple, and their two daughters standing on a white mat, whilst also wearing white outfits.
Their children were wearing white Tutus, whilst the mum was in a long gown and the dad was wearing a shirt, and trousers.
The children, who are holding a see-through umbrella, can be heard saying: “I’m so excited.”
The couple then get two pots of paint, and pour it onto the girl’s umbrella to reveal the sex of the gender.
The colour of the paint will resemble what the couple will be having, with pink for a girl and blue for a boy.
To the family’s surprise, pink came out of the paint pots which meant they were having another girl.
But despite the happy reaction from the family, the video hasn’t appeared to gain a good reaction from viewers.
It appears that due to lighting, it seemed that the paint was red – even though it wasn’t.
Many people rushed to the comments section to raise their concerns.
One asked: “I really don’t understand this. Why the red paint?”
However, the Major Keyes account set the record straight and replied: “It’s actually Magenta Pink Paint.”
But despite the couple saying this, trolls continued to target them.
Another added: “Red paint to symbolise the dads broken heart, it’s not a boy.”
Someone else said: “It looks like blood.”
A fourth wrote: “Dumbest gender reveal ever.”
However, not all of the comments were negative and many stuck up for the couple against the trolls.
One wrote: “That’s the most unique gender reveal. I love it.”
Another added: “I don’t understand all the negative comments ??? This was a beautiful gender reveal.
“And it was completely clear what was going on. Congratulations.”
A third said: “This is actually really unique and I love how the kids have a part in it too.”
