According to Jarvis, the phrase that sent the internet into a spin was never "womb shifter." She says she used the term "tomb shifter", a culturally specific expression her community uses to describe husbands.

Peller's reaction after Jarvis called him an unusual name at their wedding gets people talking

"For those of you that came to my wedding and changed my words, I never said 'womb shifter.' I said 'tomb shifter.' In the Bible, didn't you read where the tomb was shifted? I called my husband a 'tomb shifter.' That's what we call our husbands in my village," she said.

Jarvis addresses controversial comment

Jarvis maintained that as the video travelled across platforms, her original words were altered, leading audiences to arrive at a very different conclusion from what was actually said during the ceremony.

The wedding had already attracted significant public attention given the popularity of both Jarvis and Peller as content creators, making any unusual moment from the event ripe for viral amplification.
