JustaMinx shares "pregnancy" update on Twitter, leaves streaming community divided

Irish-born Twitch streamer Becca "JustaMinx" came under flak after posting a picture on Twitter claiming to be pregnant. Beccah jocularly posted a picture of the pregnancy kit on her socials, pretending to be the one who ran the test. Moments later, however, users discovered that the picture was taken from Google, indicating that she was only playing a Christmas prank.

Although the majority of her fans either played along or moved on from the post, others shared their reactions, calling out the streamer for making a supposedly insensitive joke by feigning a maternity test.

The streamer herself made a response by stating that it was all for a few laughs. By her own admission, she claimed to be "infertile."

JustaMinx scrutinized for her maternity post by online community

A fellow Twitch streamer, Kitsu Queen, responded by stating that the post was a "shi**y" one. They wrote:

Her post was also shared by popular social media creator Daniel "Keemstar" who sarcastically reported by tweeting:

This is not the first time JustaMinx has been under the cosh. Back in September 2022, Twitch streamer Toxxxicsupport shared a Twitlonger accusing Becca of being toxic towards her. To read about the entire story, click here.

Shreyan would love to drop into the virtual world of FIFA/EA FC and explore it further but, he would recommend playing Red Dead Redemption 2 to gaming skeptics for its top-tier gameplay, story and characters. During his downtime, he enjoys balancing his interests in reading, watching films and sports, and of course, playing video games.
