I was left mortified after another holidaymaker at my resort kept asking if I was pregnant – I had just been enjoying the all-inclusive buffet
A holidaymaker was mortified after a fellow hotel guest insisted she must be pregnant after her stomach was bloated from the all-inclusive buffet.
Lauren Saddington, a TikToker and podcaster from Burnley, Lancashire, has been on holiday in Izdeniz, Turkey.
In a video the 26-year-old shared with her followers, she revealed that while she didn’t enjoy the breakfast options, the lunch and dinner options were delicious.
As a result, Lauren said she feasted on the tasty food during these two meals and enjoyed three plates.
This, she says in her video, has left her feeling bloated, as is often the case when eating buffets.

While this is to be expected on a vacation, one interaction Lauren had with a fellow vacationer was less mundane.
According to podcast host Lauren, she was approached one morning during breakfast by another woman who was staying at the resort.
Initially, the influencer thought the guest would say she recognized her from her TikTok channel.
But instead, Lauren was shocked by what the guest had to say.
Describing the interaction in her video, Lauren says, “She’s like “hasn’t your belly grown, it’s really big”.
“I stood there and said ‘Oh, I don’t know how to handle this.’
“And she’s like, ‘Well, I just thought you were really pretty the first week I saw you, and now your belly is huge.'”
And that did not end the conversation, the woman continued to speak.

According to de Lauren, the woman then said, “You must be pregnant?”
Lauren wasn’t sure what to make of the situation.
She says she told the woman she was just enjoying her food at the all-inclusive resort.
And then, after telling the fellow vacationer she wasn’t pregnant, Lauren claimed she gasped in shock.
The 26-year-old continues in her video: “There was sheer horror on my face because I didn’t know what she was doing here.”
Lauren said she hoped the woman felt hurt about the conversation, as she herself would feel hurt if she made such assumptions about a stranger

After sharing this experience on social media, Lauren’s fans were shocked to hear about the conversation, with some expressing anger.
