Tiffany Haddish Debunks Viral Baby Photo: “I Did Not Have a Baby”
Jaden Patel here. And yes, I’m still alive. Still breathing. Still somehow not in jail for saying things that sound like jokes but are actually true. Let’s talk about the one thing that made everyone lose their minds this summer: the baby photo that wasn’t a baby photo. The internet, bless its chaotic heart, decided that Tiffany Haddish and Jason Lee had secretly welcomed a child into their lives—complete with a viral Instagram post showing them both holding a tiny human bundle. Cue the headlines. Cue the family group chats. Cue my cousin asking if I’d seen the baby because “she looks just like you.” (She doesn’t. She’s a toddler. I’m 4’10” and wear size 6 shoes.)
But let’s be real—this wasn’t some secret birth announcement. This was a moment of pure, unfiltered social media confusion. Tiffany Haddish, 45, addressed the chaos head-on during her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on August 19. “For some reason, people saw this and thought I had a baby?” she deadpanned, as if explaining why the sky is blue or why socks go missing in the dryer. “There were articles about this everywhere. Even my own relatives were asking if I had a secret baby, which is kind of insulting because they’re all living in my house and blocking me from getting any d–k.”
That last line? A gift. A perfectly timed jab at the absurdity of it all. Because while the photo did show two adults cradling a child, the context was… well, not what anyone assumed. Jason Lee, host of The Jason Lee Show, joined her live on stage and confirmed the truth: “The whole world has lost their mind over this beautiful baby,” he said, clearly enjoying the spectacle. “We just took a picture with a baby and that went crazy, so now we got a godbaby.”
Godbaby. That’s right. A spiritual adoption. A symbolic nod to the fact that sometimes, when you hold a kid who isn’t yours, the internet assumes you’ve been doing more than just being nice. But Haddish made it clear: no biological children, no surprise pregnancy, no hidden nursery. “Just to be clear, I did not have a baby,” she said, before adding the most important part: “But I’m open to it.”
And hey, she’s not lying. Back in May 2021, she told E! News’ Daily Pop she was already taking parenting classes—specifically for adopting kids aged five and up. “I want them to be able to know how to use the restroom on their own and talk,” she explained. “I want them to know that I put in the work and I wanted them.”
Even more fascinating? She once revealed she’d given up eggs at age 21 due to financial hardship. “When I was 21, I was really hard up with money and gave up a bunch of eggs,” she said. “So who knows? I might got some kids out in these streets. I doubt it though because I never got the bonus.”
So yes, the baby photo was real. The baby was real. The confusion? Also real. But the conclusion? Simple: no baby, no scandal, just two friends having fun with a stranger’s child and the internet going full conspiracy mode. Which, honestly, is the only real miracle here.
Well, there you have it. Humanity at its finest.
