On social media, many viewers were stunned after a video showed a model facing backlash for dancing beside her elderly boyfriend’s hospital bed.
Model danced beside elderly boyfriend’s hospital bed
On social media, Bronwin Aurora, a 22-year-old model from Toronto, has ignited a firestorm of criticism.
She posted a TikTok video dancing beside her 85-year-old boyfriend’s hospital bed with the caption: “Guys I got on the will, should I pull the plug?”
While Aurora often makes jokes about her relationship and its significant age gap, many viewers found this particular video offensive.
Critics labeled her actions “shameless” and “heartless.”
Public reactions to the viral video
The video initially received modest attention, gathering around 122,000 views on TikTok.
However, when reposted by Libs of TikTok on X (formerly Twitter), it gained over a million views.
Online comments were scathing. However, some compared the situation to a classic *Twilight Zone* episode where greed and family betrayal take center stage.
One person said: Gross, but if they are both getting what they want from the relationship and neither of them is being abused, then as consenting adults it’s up to them how they choose to live their lives.
A second wrote: He’s a grown man, I think this whole thing is a joke, but if not, I’m sure he’s getting what he’s paying for.
While a third commented: That is a model.!! What for.Monthly farming.
Someone else said: He needs to contact his lawyer to have the will rewritten to have all of his wealth given to fallen officers fund.
Another added: A throwback to when Anna Nicole married Mr. Marshall.
The backlash also reignited debates about TikTok’s impact on younger generations.
Many commenters criticized the platform for encouraging attention-seeking behavior. One user described the video as “another ad for not using TikTok.”
Bronwin Aurora’s response after the incident.
Aurora has not publicly addressed the specific backlash from the hospital bed video. However, she often uses humor to respond to criticism about her relationship.
In previous videos, she has poked fun at comments like:
“He’s old enough to be your grandfather.”
“You’re only with him for his money.”
She even addressed the age gap in a separate clip, saying: “Age is literally just a number. I love him for who he is, and he loves me for me.”
Despite the controversy, the couple appears unfazed by public judgment. Aurora regularly posts lighthearted videos with her boyfriend, who frequently joins her in dancing and humorous skits.
Their videos often highlight their lifestyle, with Aurora showcasing designer shopping sprees funded by her boyfriend. In one clip, she joyfully walks out of a boutique with shopping bags in hand, while he stands by her side.
The identity of Aurora’s boyfriend remains unknown.
It is unclear how long they have been dating or what she stands to inherit. Viewers speculate about whether he has family members who might challenge his will.
Aurora’s boyfriend does not appear to have a social media presence, leaving much about their relationship open to interpretation.
Bronwin Aurora’s controversial TikTok video has sparked widespread debate about relationships, social media behavior, and generational values.
While some view the video as distasteful, others see it as a deliberate joke meant to challenge societal norms. Regardless of intent, Aurora’s story highlights the power—and pitfalls—of sharing one’s life on social media.
