Key Takeaways
- TikToker Ash Trevino, known for dating incarcerated men, announced a pregnancy that many followers suspect is fake due to her use of stock images.
- Trevino has faced harsh criticism for her parenting, with accusations that she exploits her teenage daughters for social media fame and profit.

Ash Trevino, a 36-year-old TikToker, has recently gone viral not for her achievements but for her increasingly problematic behavior, which has sparked widespread backlash online.
Trevino first launched her TikTok account in 2019, while she was married to a prison inmate.
Over the years, she gained a notorious reputation, earning the nickname “inmate hopper” due to her history of dating multiple incarcerated men.
She frequently introduced these inmates to her two teenage daughters, sometimes during in-person visits and through jailhouse calls.
Until late last year, Trevino balanced her social media activities with a job at a dental office in Texas.

However, she was fired on December 23, 2024, mainly due to the growing controversy surrounding her online presence.
Since then, she has focused on content creation full time.
According to Trevino, she once made $12,000 in a single TikTok Live, nearly surpassing her previous monthly earnings at the dental office.
Pregnancy Announcement Sparks Skepticism
Trevino recently stunned followers by announcing her pregnancy via TikTok.
In an emotional video, she said:

“Thank you Jesus. Thank you. I’ve always wanted 3 kids. There are no words to describe how happy I am. I love you all! If you ever think you’ve hit rock bottom, just remember. GOD HAS YOUR BACK!❤️❤️❤️”

However, the excitement was short-lived.
Viewers quickly noticed that the pregnancy test photo Trevino shared was identical to stock images found by googling “positive pregnancy test.”

Doubling down, Trevino later posted another TikTok video confirming her pregnancy, cryptically captioned:
“When 2 Worlds Collide… Baby Trevino Coming Soon.”

She even shared a photo of a TikTok user, Richboycardy, who has 260.6K followers, implying he is the father.
Given the duo’s thirst for social media clout, many remain skeptical, suspecting the pregnancy announcement may be part of a larger publicity stunt. Only time will reveal the truth.

Nonetheless, she has even shared a picture of her sonogram, saying,
“I love you so much already baby… Mommy is so ready to meet you!!”
Parenting Criticism And Exploitation Accusations
Trevino’s behavior regarding her daughters, Hailey and Evie, has drawn the harshest criticism.
Though Trevino claims full custody, both girls were reportedly primarily raised by their grandmother and don’t even have beds at their mother’s home.

Both teens have found fame through TikTok — Hailey, who started during the Musical.ly era, while Evie joined the platform in 2021.
Despite their online popularity, Trevino’s notoriety has negatively impacted their lives, causing them to lose friends and face online scrutiny.
When asked about the effect on her daughters, Trevino brushed it off by saying:
“There’s nothing I can do about it. It may suck, but that is just life.”
Via TikTok
Even more concerning, Trevino has been accused of exploiting her daughters for financial gain.
In one alarming incident, while Evie was hospitalized, Trevino went live on TikTok asking viewers:
“Send a galaxy to know about my baby girl’s health.”
Via TikTok
Critics have slammed her for attempting to profit from her child’s medical situation.
Now, the pregnancy has been added to her next social life saga, but only time will tell whether she is pregnant.
Stay tuned for an update on her pregnancy!
