What did Nurse Hannah say about her son and husband?
The now-deleted video of Nurse Hannah featured her, her husband, Braxton, and their toddler, James, going to the shopping market to buy groceries. In the clip, James appears to be sitting in the shopping cart as the couple strolls through the shop. Braxton walks toward James and hands him a box.

Nonetheless, Hiatt has cleared the air surrounding the viral video, clarifying the flinching moment in a follow-up video on November 29. She revealed that the video everyone is concerned about is just a playful interaction between father and son. “They’re always playing where they scare each other… that’s what they’re always doing,” she adds.
Additionally, she acknowledged that her husband always thinks in the best interest of the baby and the family and meant no harm. “Nothing’s going on. From the moment that my husband wakes up in the morning, to the second he goes to bed, he is only thinking about our children and our family and what’s best for us,” she explains.
