Monterrey, Nuevo León - The case of Lupita TikTok, a young influencer from the municipality of Guadalupe who recently gave birth, has taken a troubling turn. On Monday, April 28, 2025, Mariana Rodríguez Cantú, head of AMAR a Nuevo León, reported that the baby could be placed under the care of Capullos, a center for vulnerable children. This news follows concerns expressed by followers regarding the mother’s apparent health problems.
Rodríguez Cantú explained on her Instagram stories that she had previously received messages urging her to intervene in the situation. The baby, who was born on April 16, 2025, was admitted to the emergency room on Sunday night, April 27, under unspecified circumstances. "There is a case of an influencer and her baby. The DIF (National System for Integral Family Development) is already aware, and they are intervening because the baby had to be hospitalized emergency," Rodríguez Cantú stated.
Lupita TikTok has gained significant popularity on TikTok for her authentic and unfiltered portrayal of her daily life, which resonates with many of her followers. Her story, marked by vulnerability, has touched the hearts of thousands who have supported her with messages of encouragement, donations, and acts of solidarity. However, the birth of her daughter has raised alarms about her ability to provide a safe environment for her child.
Recent reports indicate that the baby, named Karely Yamileth, was admitted to the Hospital Materno Infantil. Mariana Rodríguez confirmed this information, noting that the case might escalate to the DIF Capullos. "The baby was admitted due to dehydration, and it is very likely that the DIF will separate the child from her mother and transfer her to Capullos," Rodríguez Cantú explained.
The situation has drawn significant attention on social media, with many users expressing their concerns for both Lupita and her baby. The influencer’s rise to fame has been attributed to her humorous content and candidness about her life, which starkly contrasts the polished images often portrayed by other content creators. This authenticity has garnered her a loyal following, but it has also led to scrutiny regarding her parenting capabilities.
Following the news of her hospitalization, Karely Ruiz, another popular influencer, visited Lupita to meet her newborn. Ruiz brought gifts, including a pink stroller and baby clothes, and shared her own experiences of motherhood with Lupita. This visit highlighted the community support surrounding Lupita during this challenging time.
Despite the outpouring of support, the concerns regarding Lupita’s fitness as a mother have persisted. Many users on social media have questioned her ability to care for her child due to her health issues, which remain unspecified. The scrutiny intensified after her pregnancy announcement, with some claiming she was unfit to be a mother.
In light of these events, the Procuraduría de Protección de Niñas, Niños y Adolescentes del DIF Nuevo León is reportedly investigating the case to assess the family environment and ensure the well-being of the baby. Mariana Rodríguez emphasized the importance of the ongoing evaluation, stating, "We are working on this case, and it is likely that the baby will be placed in a safe environment if necessary."
Lupita TikTok’s journey to motherhood, which began with the birth of her daughter on April 16, was initially celebrated by her followers. At that time, the baby was reported to be healthy, measuring 47 centimeters and weighing 2.82 kilograms. However, the recent hospitalization has cast a shadow over what should be a joyous occasion.
As the situation unfolds, many are left wondering about the future of Lupita and her baby. The community, which has rallied around her, now faces the harsh reality that the baby may be placed in state care. The emotional toll on Lupita, who has shared her life so openly, is palpable as she navigates this precarious moment.
While Lupita has not made any official statements on her social media since the hospitalization, the public's concern continues to grow. The potential intervention by the DIF raises critical questions about parental rights and the responsibilities of influencers in the digital age.
In a world where social media can amplify both support and criticism, Lupita TikTok’s case serves as a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by those who share their lives online. The balance between public scrutiny and personal privacy becomes increasingly complex, especially when the welfare of a child is at stake. As authorities continue to evaluate the situation, the hope remains that the best outcome for both mother and baby will prevail.
