Shortly after announcing the successful delivery, the skitmaker shared a YouTube link on Instagram containing a longer video of the procedure, a move that divided opinions among social media users.

While some fans congratulated the couple, others expressed discomfort with the decision to record and share such a private moment publicly.

Critics argued that childbirth, especially a surgical delivery, should remain private.

Some users also questioned whether the video turned a sensitive family moment into online content.

Despite the criticism, supporters defended the skitmaker, noting that the video highlighted the sacrifices women make during childbirth.

Reacting to the backlash, the comic actor appeared calm and reflective.

Instead of addressing critics directly, he shared a message praising women and acknowledging the strength he witnessed during the delivery.

He stated:

“And one more thing… After everything I witnessed, after the strength, patience, and courage I saw… Never ask any woman what she brings to the table. Some women don’t just bring something to the table…They ARE the TABLE Thank you for the love. Link on my bio,” he wrote.
