A TikToker has been left furious after his mom interfered with a gender reveal party costing $9,000, claiming she ruined it.

I feel like gender reveal parties seem to have calmed down a bit lately - probably because so many got really out of hand and were becoming a skidmark on social media.

That doesn't mean they've stopped happening though, and it would appear that some still go disastrously wrong... especially when family members start meddling in them.

Candace and Wesley are influencers known for their candid vlogs about family life, including their adventures with twins and the anticipation of their new arrival.

They recently planned a gender reveal party that cost a hefty $9000, and Wesley was excited to finally afford a lavish event like this, Kidspot reported.

The drama started about a week prior to the event, Wesley explained in the TikTok video, when a text conversation between Candace and her mother-in-law about the party turned sour.

Wesley’s mother offered to help with the event, but Candace politely declined, as she was organizing it with her sisters and mom, who live out of state but wanted to be involved.

As a consolation for Wesley’s mother, Candace said: "But we might need help setting up on the day of if you can get there at 2:30!"

But the older woman bluntly responded: "Am I getting paid?"

Confused, Candace asked her mother-in-law why she thought she’d be getting paid for helping out, especially since she’d offered to help.

"Because I’m not your f**king maid," the older woman apparently replied.

Candace then burst into tears and ran into the room where Wesley was to show him the texts.

"There is a grand total of zero people that is ever going to cuss out my wife," Wesley declared.

He then made a 10-second phone call to his mom, telling her to never speak to his wife like that again and uninviting her from the gender reveal. He then hung up and blocked her number.

But the story didn’t end there.

As the party approached, Wesley’s mom’s attempts to make amends and secure an invitation to the day were denied by the couple, who remained firm in their decision.

"We appreciate your apologies, but you crossed the line, and you’re not coming," Wesley told his mom.

Cut to the big day, and the mother-in-law made a last-ditch attempt to get back into their good books. But Wesley told her: "I’m not going to feel bad because you talked to my wife in a way you shouldn’t have."

"Okay," the woman replied. "I have no choice then."

Everything was going well during the party, and the couple enjoyed themselves with family and friends. Around 30 minutes before the actual reveal part of the day, Candace had a change of heart and asked Wesley to invite his mom.

She replied: "Okay, I’ll be there," but as they approached the countdown, she still hadn’t arrived.

Not wanting to wait any longer, the couple started their 60-second countdown before they would unload the confetti canon, but at second 13, the fire alarm went off.

The venue was plunged into darkness, and the sprinkler system wet everyone standing underneath it. Guests scrambled outside and waited for the fire department to arrive.

Meanwhile, Wesley’s mother was found sitting outside, nonchalantly smoking a cigarette amid the chaos.

Immediately, the couple approached her for answers, but she denied any involvement.

So, Wesley’s now asking his followers: Do they think it was his mom? Or an unfortunate coincidence?

Responses were mixed, with some claiming that Wesley should cut his mom off for good, while others were a bit more sympathetic.

What do you think Wesley should do?
