A white mother goes viral after giving birth to a black child, despite her white husband.

A baby’s arrival is always reason for joy, particularly when it’s time to finally see them in person after months of waiting. While ultrasounds provide us with images of our unborn children, nothing beats the feeling of holding them in our arms for the first time.

Babies frequently astound us with their distinctive characteristics, such as their cute dimples or hairy heads. The most unexpected turn of events, though, would be when a newborn doesn’t resemble its parents at all.

For one family, this was the case, and their story went viral, arousing interest and conjecture online. Read on to learn how it all transpired.

On February 17, Cash Jamal Buckman, the son of Tennessee’s Rachel, a cashier at Celina 52 Truck Stop, was born. The fact that Rachel and her fiancé, Paul Buckman, are both white, despite Cash’s apparent black identity, is what attracted notice.

The truck stop congratulated Rachel on her new arrival on Facebook by posting a picture of the content family.

The tweet said, “We are happy for our cashier Rachel and her fiancé Paul Buckman on the birth of their baby, Cash Jamal Buckman, on Saturday at 6:18 p.m.”

Nevertheless, the post drew criticism regarding Cash’s paternity, with some speculating that Paul might not be the biological father, rather than congratulations.

Celina 52 Truck Stop updated their post to address the rumors, saying, “Yes, Paul is the father.” Due to her African American ancestry, Rachel may jump generations and give birth to a child who has darker complexion.

They also speculated that Cash might be suffering from jaundice, which is a common ailment in infants, and ended the post with the words, “Please be kind.”

Even after the truck stop clarified the situation, rumors and jokes persisted online.


Someone commented, saying, “Well done! He certainly looks like his father. What is his location?

“Definitely needs a DNA test; what if they mixed up the kids in the nursery by accident?” another person said.

Paul received some pity at the same time, with one user saying, “I feel sorry for Paul, being duped like this is a whole new level of creep.” Maybe he’ll come to his senses.

After that, Rachel made the decision to act independently and posted her purported DNA findings on Facebook to demonstrate her lineage.

Perhaps the results of my heritage DNA would dispel the naysayers’ claims that I [don’t] have black DNA. NOW QUIT discrediting my reputation and the name of my fiancé, Paul Buckman. She wrote, “He IS Lil Cash’s father.”

Still, jokes continued, many of them ridiculing the circumstances and casting doubt on the accuracy of the test findings.

It’s the strongest one percent I’ve ever seen. Someone said, “This looks like a job for Maury.”

With comparable DNA, a second member commented, saying, “I have that too… and both my babies still look Irish as a boiled potato.”

Thousands of people shared their thoughts and emotions to the tale on social media as it swiftly gained popularity. TikTokers also chimed in with their own hilarious observations of the state of affairs.

Celina 52 Truck Stop revealed that they will be testing their employees’ DNA and polygraphs as rumors persisted. The announcement did little but fan the flames, and people started anticipating the investigation’s conclusion.

Although the real story is still unknown, one thing is certain: this surprising change of events has drawn a lot of attention and transformed an ordinary birth announcement into a viral hit!
