A mum from Norwich was "gobsmacked" after her ultrasound scan was caught up in a celebrity scandal.
Micaela Robinson, 29, was 20 weeks pregnant with her third child, Oakley, when she shared a photo of her scan laid over a giraffe babygrow on Instagram.
She thought nothing of it until last week when it reappeared and was being linked to Love Island star Tommy Fury.
Fury met his now-ex fiancée, Molly-Mae Hague, on the ITV show in 2019 and they welcomed the birth of their daughter Bambi in 2023.
They announced their split last month and fans quickly started speculating that Fury had cheated with a Danish woman, Milla Corfixen, on holiday last year.
Last week, a fake social media account pretending to be Corfixen posted a photo of the pregnancy scan, making people believe she was expecting Fury's baby.
The claim was debunked and Fury described the “false allegations” over his break-up as “horrendous” and “heartbreaking”.
The scammer had used a purple emoji to cover Ms Robinson's information in the corner of the scan.
Ms Robinson, who is a midwife, has since decided to come forward to "claim back" her photo and clear Fury's name.
"The photo came up on my For You page on TikTok and I thought 'hang on a minute',” she said. “I did a double take and it took a few minutes to sink in - my scan photo had millions of views.
"I was gobsmacked - it has been plastered over different news outlets claiming all these things about Tommy Fury.
"I'm just your bog-standard, average mum living in Norfolk with a family of five - I have no connection to any celebrities.
"I don't even know how they found it - through a hashtag or something maybe? I don't know!"
She added she has come to see the funny side of the "mad" experience and would tell her son all about his brush with fame when he was older.
