Influencer Tears Up in Video as She Admits ‘Something Is Very Wrong’ Week After Announcing Pregnancy

Two weeks after announcing her pregnancy, TikTok star Teale Kelley shared a series of emotional videos alluding that something devastating had occurred in her personal world.

On Feb. 20, the popular influencer — who has over 297,000 followers on the app — posted two diary-style videos about her routine at 14 weeks pregnant. Just two days later, she shared a brief, eight-second clip with overlaying text reading, “When your whole life shatters in less than 12 hours.”

In her caption, Kelley, 28, assured her fans and viewers that her baby-on-the-way was alright, but the mom noted she herself might be less present online for a few days. “Baby is ok, I just need some time,” she added.

However, the creator continued to share content indicating that she learned something distressing about the father of her child. In one video from Feb. 23, Kelley simply looked at the camera as Cardi B’s “Thru Your Phone” played, a song about discovering a partner’s infidelity. “Don’t even have to say a thing,” wrote Kelley.

Such TikTok uploads have prompted her fans to speculate the baby’s father may have cheated on Kelley, who is already mom to an 11-year-old daughter. Though Kelley has kept the identity of her partner anonymous, longtime followers believe this to be a man Kelley got back together with after they previously parted ways.

In a video shared last year, the TikToker admitted that she knew “it might not be the best choice,” but as of the November 2024 post, their relationship was in a positive place. She even posted a “part two” video in response to some commenters who doubted her decision.

“Obviously not stupid. I’m not naive. I know exactly what could happen,” she said of her decision to rekindle the romance in the Nov. 25 follow-up. “I believe in forgiving. I believe that people do deserve second chances.”

In a more recent update shared on Feb. 27, Kelley added more color to the story while still avoiding any specific details.

“I’m being so vague, and I’m so sorry that that’s annoying, but just imagine the worst thing you could find when you’re pregnant and multiply it by five,” she said. “I can’t unsee the things that I saw.”

Neither Kelley nor her previous partner immediately responded to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

The online personality originally rose to notoriety last year when she shared her journey to finance a home in Colorado with the $70,000 she earned as a surrogate. She continues to reflect on the experience today, as she posts videos in her house and notes how she was able to make her dreams a reality.

“Surrogacy was the coolest journey I have ever been on, I helped bring someone’s baby into the world for them & ended up with life long friends in the end. I’m so grateful for this journey and what it brought me,” she captioned a video in January, which showed her and her daughter in their abode.
