"I'm a mommy." Pet moms, nannies and parents of actual human children are all taking to social media to declare that statement, thanks to a now-viral clip from the latest season of"Love Island USA." On theshow'sJune 12 episode,Season 7cast member Huda Mustafa tells fellow islander Nic Vansteenberghe that she has a 4-year-old daughter. Rather than simply saying that she has a daughter, Mustafa described herself as "a mommy," which seemingly confused Vansteenberghe. The chat, which was subsequently posted to the official "Love Island USA" TikTok, has since gone viral, garnering more than 22 million views and two million likes as of June 23. Mustafa, who is a single mother of a 4-year-old, told the other girl islanders but not the guys about her daughter. After telling Jeremiah Brown, who she was coupled up with at the time, that she has a daughter, Mustafa chose to confide in Vansteenberghe. During the conversation, Vansteenberghe appeared to slowly process the information, leading to the now-viral exchange. "I'm a mommy," Mustafa told Vansteenberghe. "Mommy," he replied. "I'm a mom," she reiterated. "Mamacita," he said. "No, I'm a mommy," she said for a third time. "A mom of what? A dog?" he asked. "I have a daughter," she finally said. "Like in real life?" he asked. "Yeah," she said. "Like a daughter, like a real baby?" he asked. "Yeah, like a human child," she said. People were quick to react to the conversation on social media. "Bye why is he so lost," one person said. Another said, "'mom of what' is fryingggg me." The audio of the conversation has been used on more than 3,000 TikTok videos since. While some — likeDemi LovatoandMegan Thee Stallion— have lip-synced over the clip to make new versions, others have taken their own spin on the audio. Pet owners,pregnant womenandnannieshave declared themselves mommies. The conversation has also been recreated forcakes,songsandartwork.
