A creative mum-to-be has surprised her husband with a hilarious pregnancy reveal that left him in utter shock. Revealing the cunning plan in a TikTok video, the married couple, who go by the names Ebs and Rhys on the platform, have racked up millions of views thanks to their unusual announcement that left viewers in stiches.
The Australian woman shared footage of her placing two personalised beer bottles in their fridge, with one humorously labelled 'baby daddy' and the other 'baby cannon'. The branding isn't obvious on first glance, which made the big reveal even funnier as the woman's husband took a long while to clock the message.
Alongside the bottles, the clip then shows the woman placing a positive pregnancy test alongside them, truly sealing the deal for the expectant parents.

The sneaky video begins with the text "how I announced I was pregnant to my husband", before moving onto the words "now to wait for him to get home".
The original clip has amassed 1.8 million views on TikTok so far, with many commenters applauding the wife for her innovative reveal.
One person joked "Make sure there's milk in the fridge" while another said "Everyone is so creative I just called my spouse when I was at work lol".
Other TiKTok users were slightly grossed out by the used pregnancy test sitting in the fridge, with one saying "now tell me why you didn’t put it on a napkin" and a second concerned commenter adding "please tell me u [sic] sanitized that before putting it in the fridge".
A whole cohort of commenters begged the woman to post her husband's reaction to the big announcement, and she happily honoured their wishes with a part two clip concluding the saga.
In the second video, the Aussie husband opens up the fridge and scans its contents for a good few seconds, before the news dawned on him.
The footage shows him groaning "no" before turning round and shouting "oh f**k" when his wife confirms the pregnancy to be true.
Sarcastically captioned "stoked was an understatement", the video has left people in stitches as the husband's reaction is far less enthusiastic than expected.
One person said: "at least he already has the beer" while another shocked commenter wrote "If my partner ever reacts like this I’d cry so fast".
Another TikTok user defended the man's reaction, saying: "This reaction is normal I can imagine all the expenses running through his head".
While another person strongly disagreed, criticising the husband's response. They said "I'm always so disappointed on how men respond to the news. its [sic] very discouraging. I feel bad for the wifes/girlfriends [sic]".
The couple in question don't seem phased by the criticisms, as they have since posted a TikTok video showing a box of Father's Day gift full of treats.
