YouTuber Trisha Paytas welcomes new baby Aquaman, joining siblings Malibu Barbie and Elvis

The Paytas-Hacmon clan is officially a party of five.

Beloved YouTuber, podcaster, mukbanger, TV star, recording artist, Broadway performer, and poet Trisha Paytas has given birth to her third child, Aquaman. Paytas announced the child’s July 12 delivery on Tuesday with an Instagram post featuring 14 images of herself with baby Aquaman, husband Moses Hacmon, and their two other children, Malibu Barbie and Elvis.

“💙AQUAMAN MOSES PAYTAS-HACMON💙 Born 07.12.25 @ 12:40 am 🙏” she wrote in the caption of the post.

In one image, Paytas cheekily nodded to the roots of her enduringly viral fame shooting mukbangs (videos in which Paytas would consume enough food to last a family an entire day) by giddily posing with five trays of sushi, Aquaman under her arm in a hospital bed. Another plays up baby No. 3’s unusual name, picturing the infant blissfully slumbering while clad in a child’s onesie version of the suit originally worn by the DC character in his 1941 More Fun Comics debut.

Paytas has been a full-time content creator since 2007, when she launched her YouTube channel, @blndsundoll4mj. 2,300 videos, 5 million subscribers, dozens of pop singles, and numerous appearances on TV series like Modern Family, America’s Got Talent, Dr. Phil, Celebrity Big Brother UK, and Saturday Night Live later, Paytas has become a pop culture staple.

She began dating Israeli content creator Moses Hacmon in 2020, after meeting on an episode of the podcast Frienemies, which Paytas co-hosted with YouTuber Ethan Klein until 2021. Hacmon is the brother of Hila Klein, Ethan’s wife since 2012. The pair grew close while quarantined together during the COVID-19 pandemic, with Hacmon first appearing in a Paytas video one month after the March 2020 lockdown order.

The pair were engaged (on camera) in Dec. 2020 and married (also on camera) in Dec. 2021. Exactly nine months later, Paytas’ first child, Malibu Barbie, was born. She had previously discussed being told she wouldn’t be able to concieve a child after a past chlamydia infection led to pelvic inflammatory disease, which then led to fertility issues.

Paytas opened up earlier this month about what it meant to be able to have not just Malibu Barbie in 2022, but her brother, Elvis, in 2024. “From being told I wouldn’t be able to conceive on my own to being pregnant 3 years in a row, I share this as a story of hope,” she wrote on Instagram. “While this baby was a surprise, we welcomed the abundance.”

In an episode of her Just Trish podcast released Tuesday, Paytas and Hacmon explained how they landed on Aquaman’s name. “We watched three movies to really solidify this name,” she said, explaining her special connection to the DC hero, and noting that she “knew it was the right name” when she spotted an Aquaman poster at a doctor’s visit during her pregnancy.
