Mom Holds ‘Paternity Reveal Party’ To Get Back At Ex Who Accused Her Of Cheating

There’s nothing worse than being accused of cheating on your partner when you’ve been nothing but faithful to them. It’s even worse when it happens while you’re pregnant with their child. That’s what happened to one woman, who decided to hold a “paternity reveal party” to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the baby she was six months pregnant with when they broke up was indeed his. The story has since gone viral around the world!

  1. Millena Brandao is the proud mom of two young sons. However, when she was about 2/3 of the way into her second pregnancy, her now-ex-partner started voicing suspicions that she’d been cheating on him and that the baby wasn’t his. He even asked for a paternity test to prove it, otherwise, he wouldn’t allow his name to be put on the baby’s birth certificate.
  2. She had no doubts the baby was his. “I told him that I was absolutely sure that the child was his,” Millena said in an interview. “His response to this was that he had doubts and that no one could make him register the boy without the DNA test result.” So, she obliged and then did something amazing: she held a massive party to reveal the results. Thus, the paternity reveal party was born (so to speak).
  3. It was all about embarrassing her ridiculous ex. While gathered with her closest family and friends, Millena told guests that her ex had requested a test to prove the new baby was his. “Otto’s father asked for the DNA test and I decided to throw a party,” she said in a video posted to Instagram. “If the result is positive, it’s silver. If it’s negative, it’s blue.” Needless to say, once popped, the confetti inside the balloon was silver.
  4. It’s unclear if her ex is involved in the child’s life. In fact, Millena thinks he only found out he was actually Otto’s father after the video went viral on Instagram! He now lives 1,600 km away after Millena left following their breakup to return to her hometown. According to reports, he contacted her after the video went live to say that his lawyer would be in touch.
