Model Criticized for Dancing Next to Elderly Boyfriend’s Hospital Bed After Being Added to His Will
A young model named Bronwin Aurora, 22, has been heavily criticized for sharing a video on TikTok where she danced next to her elderly boyfriend’s hospital bed.
The boyfriend, who is 85 years old, reportedly included her in his will, which Aurora referenced in her video. Over the clip, the text read: “Guys, I got on the will, should I pull the plug?” Her boyfriend could be seen lying in his hospital bed in the background.
The video quickly gained attention, with 122,000 views on TikTok, but its reach exploded to over a million views after it was shared on X (formerly Twitter).
While the video may have been intended as a joke, it sparked widespread backlash, with many accusing Aurora of being insensitive and disrespectful.
Aurora has frequently posted about the significant 63-year age gap in her relationship, often poking fun at it. In past videos, her boyfriend appeared healthy, and Aurora has responded to critics who commented on their relationship. In one clip, she acknowledged the age difference, saying, “Age is literally just a number. I love him for who he is as a person, and he loves me for who I am as a person… obviously.”
However, the hospital video crossed a line for many viewers. One user on X wrote, “This is what social media does to people. The internet is forever, and she showed her true colors. Everyone can now see her for the heartless person she is. I hope he removed her from the will after that.” Another person commented, “Hopefully, the guy had enough energy left to reach the phone and call his estate attorney after seeing this trash.”
Other comments included harsh criticism like, “One of the most disgraceful things I’ve seen on this app,” and, “Hope his family sees this and adjusts the will. One cent sounds appropriate.”
Aurora’s posts have often been controversial, with previous videos showing her dancing in front of her boyfriend while addressing criticisms like, “He’s old enough to be your grandpa.” Despite this, she has defended her relationship, claiming it’s based on love and mutual understanding.
It remains unclear how long the couple has been together, the identity of Aurora’s boyfriend, or what she stands to gain from being in his will. Regardless, the viral video has raised questions about the boundaries of social media and how far some people are willing to go for attention. Many viewers were left shocked and disgusted, using the incident as an example of how social media can encourage poor judgment and a lack of empathy.
