People spot one obvious clue everyone missed that the Scottish girl’s baby was fake

This week, the internet has been obsessed with the wild story of Kira Cousins, the 23-year-old girl from Scotland who faked not only a pregnancy but also an entire birth — complete with a fake bump and a realistic reborn baby doll.

The story exploded after Kira’s cousin Naeve exposed the entire saga online, complete with screenshots, photos, and receipts. For months, Kira had been posting regular pregnancy updates. Friends and family fully bought into it, even throwing her a baby shower. One family member apparently forked out £1,000 for a pushchair.

But things started to unravel after “baby” Bonnie-Leigh was “born”. Kira’s mum reportedly grew suspicious when she wasn’t allowed to hold or feed the baby — and when she finally got close enough, she realised the newborn wasn’t breathing, moving, or making a sound.

Once the story went viral, Kira deleted her accounts for a bit, but she’s since reappeared online, offering an emotional explanation. On Instagram, she said her lies came after a miscarriage, writing: “Yes I lied, but when I lost baby with miscarriage, I didn’t know what to do… I was hurting and wanted to be a mum so badly.”

People have now spotted one very obvious clue that her family somehow missed. During her fake pregnancy, Kira posted what looked like an ultrasound photo on Facebook with the caption “Our wee baby girl”.

Zoom in on the image, though, and you can clearly see the word “canine” at the top — meaning it was actually a dog’s ultrasound scan. Yes. A dog.

Despite that, Kira’s family and friends continued commenting and congratulating her as if nothing was off. One woman who’d met Kira on holiday said she realised instantly the “baby” was a reborn doll, while everyone else just went along with it.

To make things even stranger, Kira announced the “birth” of Bonnie-Leigh on Facebook five weeks before her supposed due date, claiming she was already home from hospital — something that raised eyebrows even among her relatives. But how did nobody clock the dog scan?
