Ina Colada Faces Backlash Over Fake Pregnancy April Fools' Post

Her defense underscores how pregnancy gags can hurt people dealing with infertility.

Overview

  • Ina Colada, who posted a “we’re expecting” photo Wednesday, revealed Thursday it was an April Fools’ bit that joked she was “impregnated by AI.”
  • Many followers called the stunt insensitive, noting that infertility is common and painful, with commenters citing that about one in eight couples struggle to have children.
  • The singer said she respects that the topic is sensitive but framed it as a classic April 1 prank and stressed she did not fake an illness or a miscarriage.
  • She has now disabled comments under both Instagram posts after the critical responses piled up.
  • The Ballermann performer, 40, is known in the Mallorca party scene, and the episode shows how attention-grabbing social media pranks can backfire when they hinge on pregnancy.
