THE RUNDOWN:
- YouTuber Trisha Paytas has welcomed their third child
- Trisha Paytas has three children, whose names are Malibu Barbie Paytas-Hacmon, Elvis Paytas-Hacmon, and Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon.
- After Malibu Barbie was born hours after Queen Elizabeth II’s death, each child’s birth has been linked to the potential death of a world leader, with TikTok users believing the children have been “reincarnated.” Paytas’s second baby, Elvis Paytas‑Hacmon’s birth, was linked to the death of Pope Francis, despite occurring almost a year before the leader of the Catholic church’s passing.
- Some TikTokers speculated the birth of Aquaman Moses Paytas‑Hacmon with the death of US President Donald Trump. Instead, the child was born around the same time Black Sabbath frontman Ozzy Osbourne died.
YouTuber Trisha Paytas has officially welcomed their third child with Moses Hacmon, and—for reasons only the internet can explain—everyone is talking about the so‑called “Trisha Paytas Baby Theory.”
Paytas registered her YouTube channel in 2007, after stints as a TV extra and aspiring actor, quickly amassing a following with hyper-confessional vlogs, mukbangs, and self-released pop tracks. Their flair for headline‑grabbing stunts made them a fixture on reality TV (Celebrity Big Brother) and viral podcasts—most notably the combustible Frenemies with Ethan Klein—while repeated accusations of cultural appropriation and online feuds have kept their controversies front‑page. Yet, nearly two decades on, the self‑styled “internet icon” continues to command millions of views and searches.
So… why are we suddenly linking Trisha Paytas’s baby to US President Donald Trump?
What Is The ‘Trisha Paytas Baby Theory’?

Paytas, who shot to fame in the early 2010s, has weathered plenty of bizarre feuds and rumours, but none as convoluted as this reincarnation conspiracy. The chatter began in September 2022, when Queen Elizabeth II died aged 96.
Moments before the Palace announcement, Paytas told followers they had gone into labour with their first child, Malibu Barbie. Twitter connected the dots and declared the baby a royal reboot. Child two, Elvis Paytas‑Hacmon, arrived with far less celestial fanfare, but speculation reignited the minute Paytas revealed pregnancy number three.
The theory stuck. When Pope Francis died in April 2025, corners of the internet insisted that Paytas must be carrying his soul. Timing disagreed, but that didn’t stop the countdown.
In the lead‑up to birth number three, TikTok decided Donald Trump was next in line for Paytas’ cosmic conveyor belt. News of the President’s chronic venous insufficiency (a fairly common ailment for septuagenarians—Trump is 79 and the oldest person ever re‑elected) only fuelled the frenzy.
One TikTok with 11 million views joked, “Trisha hasn’t posted in days, Trump’s health is getting worse if my girl pulls this one off i may just become religious.” Another, viewed 950 000 times, begged: “@trishapaytas please do this ONE thing for me.”
Another user, @matheeusias68 said in a TikTok post viewed 3.7 million times: “Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency and Trisha Paytas is expecting her third child this months LORD WE ARE READY.”
Even Paytas is bewildered. On their podcast Just Trish they said, “I don’t know how my womb is carrying all these souls.”
Alas, wires were crossed. Paytas welcomed baby number three just as Black Sabbath frontman John “Ozzy” Osbourne left this mortal coil. Better luck next time, internet.
What Are Trisha Paytas’ Kids’ Names?
The YouTuber and husband Moses Hacmon have leaned into pop‑culture whimsy when naming their three children: Malibu Barbie Paytas‑Hacmon (born 14 September 2022), Elvis Paytas‑Hacmon (born 24 May 2024) and their newest arrival, Aquaman Moses Paytas‑Hacmon, welcomed on 12 July 2025.
Sure, the birth of Paytas’s first child and the death of Queen Elizabeth II were uncannily close, and while their third child failed to fill a US President, it did arrive hot on the heels of music luminary Ozzy Osbourne’s passing. However, fans of the Trisha Paytas baby theory have been attempting to link the birth of Paytas’s second child, Elvis Paytas-Hacmon, with the death of Pope Francis II. Even if you believe the Paytas baby reincarnation rumours, the dates don’t quite line up. Trisha Paytas’s daughter, Elvis Paytas-Hacmon, was born on May 24, 2024, while Pope Francis II died close to a year later on April 21, 2025.
Sadly for fans of this conspiracy theory, it seems that Elvis Paytas-Hacmon’s birth is yet to have a solid link to the death of any notable person.
