Kenya Booker, 40 years old, a mother of two daughters, decided to post a collage of several images on her Instagram. The next morning, she woke up to fame. The image instantly spread across the internet, but now a small comment appeared under it: “Guess who’s the mom.” On the first picture, there is a noticeable difference between the mother and the daughters, but on the second, where the girls are already adults, it’s quite difficult to determine who is who. As a result, social media users are still puzzled by this.
“Mother, sister, daughter?” That’s the question all users asked, their brains literally racing to find the right answer. Some curious people turned to Kenya’s Instagram, where there were even more shared photos, making it even harder to detect differences. Someone asked about the source of youth that Kenya hides in her garden. Others bombarded the mother with angry remarks and comments, triggering a flood of angry criticism on social media.
After the angry comments from outraged haters, Kenya, tired of proving something to people, decided not to post new provocative images. The woman decided to focus on work and family. Besides her two adult daughters, she also had a little son. It’s hard to say with certainty what makes a woman so unique. Some believe it’s because of her genes. Others think Kenya spends a lot of time on her appearance. But the fact remains: Kenya has shown by her example what one can look like at 40.
