Mother's photo focus overshadowed daughter's pregnancy reveal

A woman's pregnancy announcement went viral after her mother prioritized a family photo over her daughter's news, as captured in a video. The daughter, Olena Perez, shared the video, which has garnered millions of views. Perez, after struggling to conceive, revealed her pregnancy with a positive test at a family dinner, hoping for a heartfelt reaction. Instead, her mother focused on taking a group photo, leading to confusion and an underwhelming response. The video, filmed in 2023, shows Perez's mother's reaction, which Perez says is typical. Perez, who gave birth in February 2024, now advises others to announce pregnancies privately with their mothers first.
