Homeless Couple “Flexes” Living In A Tent, Have Previously Said They’re “Too Smart” For A Job

A homeless couple who have been documenting their journey living in a tent has recently gained more attention after declaring that their lives on the streets were a “flex,” relying on donations and free amenities found at hotels. Their controversial lifestyle and opinions have already cost them being expelled from establishments and amassed backlash on the internet.

Leland Brown Jr. and Breanna, a couple from Hatfield, Pennsylvania, USA, went viral on Sunday (March 3) after declaring that they would now be using the term “houselessness” instead of “homelessness” as a result of the “negative connotation attached to being homeless.”

Taking to their TikTok page, followed by 165.700 people, Leland and Breanna shared a video where they explained, from the tent they have been living in, that “houselessness is a flex” while arguing that they were not dehumanizing homeless people.
