White Mom Gives Birth to Black Baby—Fiancé Responds to Viral Speculation
A Tennessee couple’s baby announcement has gone viral—not for the usual reasons, but because the white parents welcomed a Black baby.
Rachel, a cashier at Celina 52 Truck Stop, and her fiancé, Paul Buckman, introduced their son, Cash Jamal Buckman, to the world. But instead of warm congratulations, social media erupted with paternity questions and
jokes.
In response, the truck stop edited their post, claiming Rachel has African American DNA that “skipped generations.” Rachel later shared her ancestry DNA results to defend her fiancé’s paternity, but the controversy only grew.
The debate intensified when the truck stop announced polygraph and DNA tests for employees, fueling even more speculation.
