Some of Heidi Klum’s 10.7 million Instagram followers criticize her for deftly staging a pregnancy on April Fool’s Day.
The 49-year-old Making the Cut anchor received sharp criticism for her prank after she posed for multiple images with her colleagues on America’s Got Talent judges while sporting a prosthetic baby belly. The joke was labeled as “tasteless” and “insensitive.”
On Saturday, the mother-of-four reshared a photo that Sofia Vergara had uploaded initially, in which she was seen kissing a fictitious tummy and writing the comment, “I’m going to be an aunt!”
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel was pictured cradling her stomach in a dressing room while donning a long skirt, a cropped black sweater, and a pair of tan UGG slippers.
Congrats. @heidiklum Coworkers @sofiavergara and I are the first to know, Howie Mandel captioned the photo to dupe his followers. A few hours later, Klum posted a picture of Mandel, 67, with a prosthetic baby bump on his tummy, proving that she was not genuinely expecting.
She jokingly said, “From me to you, congratulations.”
Many of their followers disapproved of the joke, with many saying that since “so many women experience infertility,” “being pregnant isn’t a funny April Fools’ joke.”
‘I find this extremely distasteful and hurtful to those women still going through their infertility journey,’ another wrote. Some people believed the cast should feel “ashamed” of themselves for the ruse.
Other people believed that Klum would need to “apologize to everyone that’s offended tomorrow.”
Yet, many people who saw pictures of Klum wearing a midriff-baring gown to the iHeartRadio Music Awards last week thought her phony pregnancy announcement was evident.

Yet, considering that she recently discussed maybe wanting to have a child with her husband, Tom Kaulitz, the possibility of her becoming pregnant is not so improbable.
