WHAT FANS THINK
After a Reddit user shared the recent quotes on a Hailey-themed internet forum, critics shared their honest opinions.
“Having a baby never solves anything, it just puts a temporary bandaid on the problem,” one wrote.
A second explained, “Having a baby is NOT ‘the light at the end of the tunnel’ wtf it’s so obvious they hope the baby is gonna fix their marriage but I‘ve never seen it happen.
“A baby is supposed to be brought into a great marriage, not have the job to CREATE a great marriage.”
