South African Grammy-winning singer Tyla made headlines with a playful pregnancy prank on her mother, Sharleen Seethal. Tyla shared a video on Instagram where she called her mom to break the news of her supposed pregnancy.
In the clip, Tyla asked her mom to find a private space before revealing the surprising “news.” Unexpectedly, Sharleen reacted with happiness, admitting that she had suspected her daughter might be pregnant. However, Tyla then added a twist, claiming she didn’t know who the father of the baby was. This shifted her mom’s excitement to concern as Sharleen urged her to explain.
The prank reached its climax when Tyla confessed it was all a joke, leaving her mother both relieved and amused. Sharleen humorously ended the exchange by questioning what would happen to her promotion, adding a lighthearted finish to the prank.
