The internet has revived the bizarre ‘Trisha Paytas Baby Theory’ following the recent death of music legend Ozzy Osbourne. The theory resurfaced after Paytas announced the birth of her third child, Aquaman Moses Paytas-Hacmon, on July 12, 2025, days before news of Osbourne’s passing broke.
‘Trisha Paytas Baby Theory’ trend explained
The theory first gained traction in September 2022, when Trisha Paytas went into labor with her first child, Malibu Barbie, just hours before Queen Elizabeth II passed away. Social media users quickly linked the two events, joking that the monarch had been reincarnated as Paytas’ baby. The meme went viral and has returned with every subsequent pregnancy.
In April 2025, following the death of Pope Francis, the theory resurfaced once again. Users on platforms like X (formerly Twitter) speculated—albeit humorously—that Paytas’ unborn child would be the Pope reincarnated. The joke circulated widely, with posts like, “You’re laughing. Pope Francis is about to be reincarnated as Trisha Paytas’ baby and you’re laughing,” gaining thousands of shares.
Now, the theory has resurfaced again after Osbourne’s death was reported around the same time Paytas’ third child was born. Though there is no actual correlation, the internet quickly revived the meme, suggesting that Osbourne had now entered the next life as Aquaman Moses. Even Trisha herself addressed the trend on her podcast Just Trish, saying, “I don’t know how my womb is carrying all these souls.” (via Elle)
For those unaware, John “Ozzy” Osbourne, the iconic frontman of Black Sabbath and a pioneer of heavy metal, passed away at the age of 76. Osbourne’s death comes just weeks after his emotional farewell performance in his hometown.
While the “Trisha Paytas Baby Theory” is rooted in coincidence and internet humor, its staying power lies in the absurdity of timing. Paytas’ long history of viral fame, mixed with her unpredictable life events, keeps fans guessing and memes flowing. From Queen Elizabeth to the Pope and now Ozzy Osbourne, the theory continues to trend.
