“Everything is so hard”—Olivia Culpo’s viral TikTok captures a third-trimester truth

Olivia Culpo may be a supermodel married to an NFL star, but her third-trimester date night prep? It’s all of us. In a now-viral TikTok with over 1.1 million views, Culpo gives the internet a painfully real—and hilariously glamorous—look at getting dressed with a baby bump.

“Alright guys, last date night as a pregnant lady,” the 33-year-old begins. “Maybe, possibly, we’ll see. They come when they want to come.”

And what followed is basically the mom-to-be version of a CrossFit workout: strategic dress-stretching, deep-breathing through shoe application, and a triumphant mirror pep talk when she finally gets her heels on.

“Everything is so hard,” she jokes before slipping on her pumps with Olympic-level effort. “Wow, I can’t believe I just did that. I did that. Wow, I put on my shoe!”

Same, Olivia. Same.

She closes out the look—copper dress, brown pumps, gold studs, and oversized aviators—while trying to catch her breath. And she knows exactly how relatable it is, captioning the clip:

“It’s the huffing and puffing for me ”

Moms everywhere felt that in their soul.

“Held my breath when you put on that shoe ” – @jamiewamieee

From viral TikTok comments to group chats everywhere, this video struck a nerve for every mom who’s ever fought gravity, dignity, and shoe straps during the final stretch of pregnancy.

And while Culpo may have mastered the model-off-duty vibe, she’s also opened up about the more vulnerable parts of this journey. In March, she revealed that she experienced a subchorionic hematoma, a condition that landed her on strict bedrest for weeks. “I was bleeding everywhere,” she said in an earlier TikTok, candidly sharing that progesterone suppositories may be the reason her pregnancy continued.

Now, with her baby bump front and center, she’s basking in gratitude—and breathing through the bumps, both literal and emotional.

This moment—gasping, glowing, gorgeous, and totally out of breath—is something so many of us remember:

The weird pride of getting dressed when nothing fits.

The bizarre math of which shoes you might be able to reach.

The way your body feels both like a miracle and a stranger.

There’s something oddly comforting about seeing a celeb like Culpo not just share her highlight reel, but also her behind-the-scenes huffs. It reminds us that even the most “put together” moms are just trying to fasten their earrings while catching their breath—and that counts.
