A MUM-TO-BE has hilariously revealed she almost “hated her fiance forever” after their gender reveal went wrong.
Indya Jefferies’ partner needed to kick an exploding football to release the pink or blue powder that told them boy or girl – but he kicked it into their neighbour’s garden instead.

Indya shared the “epic fail” on her TikTok account in a video that has now attracted over 400,000 views.
In the video, her fiancé kicked the gender reveal exploding football… except it didn’t explode.
The dad-to-be accidentally hit the ball with the side of his foot, lobbing it into the neighbours garden where it exploded when it hit the floor.
Indya covered her mouth with her hands in shock, while the engaged couple’s family and friends were laughing and saying, “Oh my God” and “Oh no”.
The mum-to-be revealed in the comments: “The football exploded next door and we had to do it again.
“Didn’t realise you had to kick it down the middle to explode.”
Exploding footballs are one of the newer gender reveal methods and are loved by football fanatic parents.
The kits tend to contain individual packets of blue and pink powder that are poured into the football shell.
Once kicked, it produces a cloud of the coloured powder.
Her fiancé’s dodgy kick almost put him in the dog house, according to Indya.
She said: “I was annoyed!
“Luckily, I had a balloon to do after, otherwise I would have cried and hated my fiance forever.”
Thanks to the back-up balloon, the parents-to-be found out they were having a girl.
They had both wrongly predicted that Indya was pregnant with a boy.
Their gender reveal attracted mass response on social media as people gushed over how funny it was.
One person said: “Can’t stop watching this, it gets funnier every time.”
Another penned: “I’m dying at this… but I would be fuming.”
Men in the comments joked that the dad-to-be’s football skills won’t see him signed for a professional club any time soon.
