Is there any other Ruby Franke on the loose?
As Perezcious readers know, Ruby, a former YouTube content creator, is currently serving time behind bars for some gruesome child abuse charges, and now TikTok users are calling out another influencer momma who is also raising major alarm bells!
Hannah Hiatt went viral in October for a video collecting 17 dirty diapers tossed all around her home (below). Quickly, users started looking into her more, and tons of concerns arose about the way her son James is being treated. (She also has a newborn child.)

There are TONS of videos in which Hannah shares her parenting POV — including seemingly not feeding her kids, claiming she doesn’t change their diapers when they pee, and refusing to buy her son a $35 winter coat despite freezing temperatures and splurging on far more expensive food for her and her husband Braxton. Like, WTF?
Just as noteworthy, viewers believe her son James often flinches whenever his parents get near him, a huge red flag!! Truly shocking stuff, and the travel nurse posted it all herself! See a bit of it (below).

Really concerning!
In the comments, worried users also pointed out that if “they’re recording” this, just “imagine what goes on that they aren’t recording.” Not a comforting thought at all!
However, Hannah took to her social media page on Saturday to clap back at the child abuse allegations and specifically the comparison to the convicted felon. In response to a comment that stated she was Ruby Franke “2.0,” she said:
“To be compared, right now, to Ruby Franke is absolutely comical.”
“Comical”?? We’d find NOTHING funny about being compared to a child abuser!!! But alas, that’s how she continued to reference the scandal, saying:
“It’s hilarious, really. We live in a world nowadays where people will turn nothing into something. We live in a world where people are so desperate to become TikTok famous, they will post about anything in order to get views for themselves. They don’t care if it’s going to bring someone down with it, they just want to be TikTok famous.”
She vehemently denied the allegations, continuing:
“The fact that my children are happy, they are healthy, well-nourished, they’re running around playing, that should be a pretty good indication that everything’s just fine. It’s great.”
Defend herself more, she insisted:
“They always have a clean bum and never have a dirty diaper on.”
But she literally said she refuses to change the diaper if they’ve only peed? That’s not a clean diaper!
@hannah_bhiatt Replying to @✨Madame Midnight✨ just unbelievable. #mom #momtok #momsoftiktok #trending #fyp #toddler #husband #husbandwife
In another video the day prior, she hit back at claims her husband is “lazy” while insisting he and the kiddo have “the strongest father-son bond.” She urged:
“My husband is the sweetest, nicest, kindest, most-loving, most-nurturing father in the entire world. He’s on the ground playing with James like 90 percent of the day.”
As for the flinching people picked up on in views of the two of them? She said they were just playing:
“They’re always playing where they scare each other.”
Huh…

Earlier this week, TikToker Anthony Blackwell claimed he found Hannah’s home in Utah and reported her to CPS. Others have said they reported her to the board of nursing and other appropriate organizations.
