Fake Baby Scandal: Woman's Deception Becomes TV Show

A Glasgow-based production company has secured the rights to tell the extraordinary story of Kira Cousins, a woman who faked an entire pregnancy, including a prosthetic baby bump and a 'Reborn' doll named Bonnie-Leigh. The deception captivated and later outraged social media users, fooling her partner, family, and colleagues alike.

Cousins confessed on social media to fabricating scans, messages, and a birth story, admitting she didn't know how to stop the elaborate lie. This isn't her first instance of deception; she previously used images of another woman's child, passed off as her own. Despite the controversy and the victim's apprehension, a documentary is now in production.

Two Rivers Media and Soho Studios Entertainment confirmed the documentary, aiming to present the story with sensitivity. However, one individual whose child's images were used has refused to participate, expressing concerns about the narrative and the potential for profit from the deceit. The victim also fears for her child's safety and has not received an apology.
