Bizarre Trisha Paytas baby theory resurfaces following Ozzy Osbourne’s death
According to the internet, there's a very strict one in, one out system at play every time Trisha Paytas is pregnant.
The social media star, 37, recently welcomed her third child into the world, and the birth of her little boy has coincided with the death of rock legend Ozzy Osbourne.
So, it didn't take long for that bizarre conspiracy theory which has followed the YouTuber for the last three-years to resurface online - given that she's now gone three for three, according to some people.
For those who don't know, the births of Paytas' three children have all seemingly aligned with the deaths of a beloved famous face. Well, sort of anyway.

As a result, chronically online folk seem to think that her womb is a vessel of reincarnation, as each time her due date looms, a public figure seems to pass away.
Which is why we're here to give you the lowdown on the entrances of Paytas' offspring into the world... and the huge losses which have accompanied them.
Queen Elizabeth II
The outlandish idea that there is a subsequent exit for every entry first spread like wildfire on social media back in September 2022, following the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
The monarch passed away at the age of 96 at Balmoral Castle after a more than 70 year reign - and hours after the sad news broke, Paytas revealed she'd gone into early labour.
She was expecting her first child with her husband Moses Hacmon, and subsequently welcomed their daughter, Malibu Barbie Paytas-Hacmon, on 14 September of that year.
Due to the close timing of these two events, a host of people online began pedalling a bizarre theory which suggested that the tot might actually be Queen Elizabeth... re-birthed.
The idea literally came from nowhere except the strange imaginations of online users, but before we knew it, people across the planet were buying into it.
After the initial craze had died down a bit, Paytas took to Instagram to address it.
"The internet is a weird place," the YouTuber - who rose to fame sharing chaotic lifestyle vlogs and mukbangs - wrote. "I don’t know how any of those rumours started or why?
"Sorry to the Royal Family and my baby. Felt weird to say anything at all."
But if you thought that would have been enough to put the outlandish theory to bed, you'd have thought wrong.
Pope Francis/King Charles III
Next on the internet's chopping block was the late Pope Francis, but King Charles III was also alleged to have a Paytas-related target on his back too.
In May 2024, several news outlets incorrectly reported that the Head of the Catholic Church had passed away, sparking pandemonium on social media.
During this time, King Charles was also receiving treatment for cancer after revealing his diagnosis to the world three months prior.
While the headlines were being dictated by these two topics, Paytas then announced that she and Hacmon had welcomed their second daughter on 24 May last year. Can you see where this is going?
Even though Pope Francis was still in fact alive at the time and the King's condition was not grave, internet users didn't seem to care.
They reckoned that Paytas' second child, Elvis, could have easily been a reincarnation of either of the two men who were struggling with their health at the time.
Even though they were both alive and kicking, the strange baby theory reared its head again - and even Paytas admitted the timing of her births was getting a bit ridiculous.
"I get the timing is crazy, I get it," she told her fans at the time. "I get the meme of it all. I was able to lean into the Queen Elizabeth one a little bit, but it also terrifies me that people believe in it enough."
Pope Francis ultimately passed away on 21 April this year.
Ozzy Osbourne
After Paytas announced the birth of third child, Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon, yesterday (22 July), people were obviously anticipating the death of another household name.
Sadly, the news then broke that Ozzy Osbourne had died 'surrounded by love' on Tuesday morning at the age of 76.
As you can imagine, the internet once again went into overdrive with this news - even though Paytas did specify that her baby boy was born on 12 July, ten days before the Prince of Darkness passed away.
Despite this, the baby theory has been circulating once again, and the name of Paytas' newest child really hasn't helped matters.
During an episode of her podcast Just Trish, she explained that she and Hacmon settled on the unique moniker as they love the Aquaman film franchise and comic book character.
Most people will probably be aware that Jason Momoa played the half-human, half-Atlantean in the superhero films - and the actor had quite an interesting gig earlier this month, too.
Momoa had the honour of playing host at Osbourne's final ever show at Birmingham's Villa Park on 5 July... so you can see why peoples' imaginations are running wild once again.
Paytas has yet to comment on the recent claims - however, the good news is, this will likely be the last time the theory ever goes viral.
After the 'surprising and traumatic' birth of Aquaman, the content creator said she 'got her [fallopian] tubes out' during the C-section and does not intend to have any more children.
