Babies frequently astound us with their distinctive characteristics, such as their cute dimples or hairy heads. The most unexpected turn of events, though, would be when a newborn doesn’t resemble its parents at all.
For one family, this was the case, and their story went viral, arousing interest and conjecture online. Read on to learn how it all transpired.
On February 17, Cash Jamal Buckman, the son of Tennessee’s Rachel, a cashier at Celina 52 Truck Stop, was born. The fact that Rachel and her fiancé, Paul Buckman, are both white, despite Cash’s apparent black identity, is what attracted notice.
The truck stop congratulated Rachel on her new arrival on Facebook by posting a picture of the content family.
The tweet said, “We are happy for our cashier Rachel and her fiancé Paul Buckman on the birth of their baby, Cash Jamal Buckman, on Saturday at 6:18 p.m.”
Nevertheless, the post drew criticism regarding Cash’s paternity, with some speculating that Paul might not be the biological father, rather than congratulations.
Celina 52 Truck Stop updated their post to address the rumors, saying, “Yes, Paul is the father.” Due to her African American ancestry, Rachel may jump generations and give birth to a child who has darker complexion.
They also speculated that Cash might be suffering from jaundice, which is a common ailment in infants, and ended the post with the words, “Please be kind.”
