And the award for most dramatic response to a pregnancy announcement goes to … second-grader Milan Fairweather! In a TikTok video with more than 15 million views, Milan, 8, beams after she is presented with a gift bag. Unbeknownst to the little girl, it’s filled with big sister merch. “Here we are thinking it’s going to be this sweet moment and that she's going to be excited,' Milan’s mom Jessica Brantley tells TODAY.com. “We were wrong!” Brantley adds with a laugh. They were very wrong.
“Is this a dream? Are you actually having a baby?” Yes, Brantley is actually having a baby. It’s a boy and he’s due in November. Brantley, an interior designer, tells TODAY.com that she and Milan are extremely close. “We do every single thing together — we get our nails done, we explore the farmers market — She’s a true only child,” Brantley says. “So I definitely understand why her response was overly-dramatic. She’s afraid of losing what we have.
