A ‘hot mom’ who loves getting plastic surgery and wearing sexy clothing has hit back at critics who think she is a gold digger and a negligent parent just because of how she looks.
Jen Ferguson, 31, from New York, was just 19 when she had her son, Levi. More than a decade later, she is expecting her second child with her husband Stephen Donnelly, 43, with whom she shares two stepsons, Parker and Lincoln.
‘People judge me for being a hot mom,’ she shared on a new episode of the Truly series My Extraordinary Family. ‘They assume that I’m a bad mom because I show skin. I’m still a fantastic mom. I just show it off. ‘

Jen Ferguson, 31, from New York, opened up about being judged for being a ‘hot mom’ on a new episode of the Truly series ‘My Extraordinary Family’
Ferguson is raising her son, Levi, and two stepsons, Parker and Lincoln, with her husband Stephen Donnelly. She is now pregnant with her second child, her first with Donnelly
Ferguson described her style as being ‘very trendy,’ saying she likes to look younger than her actual age.
‘I’m 31, but I like to dress like the young girls. I just like to feel sexy. That’s my vibe,’ she explained, though she noted that she has toned down her outfits a bit while pregnant.
‘Nowadays that I am carrying this baby, I don’t like to wear super tight all the time. I’ll wear something a little more, I guess, “mom like,”‘ she said, pulling a purple blouse out of her closet.
‘This isn’t that fun,’ she added. ‘I make sure I unbutton it a little.’
Ferguson shared some of her favorite outfits, including a zebra-print blouse with ties that she wears open with a bra underneath and a black Playboy bunny costume.
Ferguson explained that people often assume she is a ‘bad mom’ because of how she dresses
The soon-to-be mother of two likes to wear low-cut blouses, mini skirts, and cropped tops
‘I’m still a fantastic mom. I just show it off,’ she said of her figure-flaunting outfits
‘It’s fun to show a little bit of skin and a little cleavage,’ she insisted. [But] I have been judged for wearing this and things like this. I think their biggest problem is they think I’m a mom, I have sons, I shouldn’t be showing this, but come on. We all have a chest. We all have a body.’
The soon-to-be mother of two’s aesthetic has earned her nearly 225,000 followers on TikTok, where she shows off her hot mom outfits and claps back at critics who don’t approve.
‘I honestly think that a lot of women are jealous because they don’t have the confidence I have,’ she said. ‘And confidence doesn’t mean that I’m so into myself and everything. It just means that I’m confident in who I am, and it took a lot of years to get here. People either love or hate my style, but I just roll with it.’
Ferguson credited plastic surgery with helping to boost her confidence, but she admitted that’s another thing she gets flack for.
‘I got my first cosmetic procedure, which was my first boob job, in 2015,’ she said. ‘I love getting plastic surgery because it makes me feel more confident, and, you know, some people disagree with that.

‘They say, “Why would you do that? That’s so vain.” But you know what? I have insecurities just like, probably, all other women in the world. And for me, if I am able to afford it and able to do it, I…do it.’
Ferguson recalled how her family struggled financially when she was growing up, saying her mother was ‘broke’ and they ‘lived on food stamps.’ She said it’s why she has always worked hard to give her son ‘what he deserves.’
‘A lot of people say that I want Stephen for his money, and they assume that because he is 12 years older than me,’ she explained. ‘He is successful, but, honestly, I love him because I love him.’
The couple has a blended family, and Donnelly noted that his son Lincoln has been friends with Levi since kindergarten.
‘My family has not reacted very well to my relationship with Jen,’ he admitted. ‘They’re very stubborn. They’re very old school. They’re very old-fashioned. It is what it is.
She pulled put a purple blouse that looked more ‘mom like’ during the episode, explaining that she would make sure to ‘unbutton it a little’ when she wore it
‘Moms are hot too,’ she insisted. ‘Like what, so I had kids and I can’t be hot anymore? Like no way’
Ferguson shared that she has also been accused of being a gold digger for marrying Donnelly, who is 12 years her senior, saying, ‘I love him because I love him’
Donnelly admitted that his family has ‘not reacted very well’ to his relationship with Ferguson, but he added that he ‘couldn’t ask for a better stepmom for the boys’
‘You know, at the end of the day, I obviously love her. I love our family. I couldn’t ask for a better stepmom for the boys.’
Both Levi and Lincoln said they have no problem with how Ferguson dresses, despite what other people may think.
‘All my friends have a huge crush on my mom, like all of them. I’m not even joking when I say this too. Sometimes she dresses in clothes that are like short, like very short,’ Levi said.
‘But, like, honestly, like I don’t care because if she had dressed and acted differently, she’d be different than the way she is now, and I don’t want anything different than what she is now.’
Lincoln added that he thinks his stepmother is ‘pretty cool,’ saying, ‘I don’t really get embarrassed of what she puts on TikTok. I don’t really mind. Honestly, I think it’s cool.’
Ferguson said that most of the negative reactions she gets are from people who are about a decade or so older.
Ferguson’s son, Levi, insisted he isn’t embarrassed by how his mom dresses, though he admitted she wears ‘very short’ clothing and all of his friends have a ‘huge crush’ on her
‘I don’t care because if she had dressed and acted differently, she’d be different than the way she is now, and I don’t want anything different than what she is now,’ he explained
At the end of the episode, she and her husband treated their kids to pedicures at a local salon where they met up with her mom, Andrea
When asked what she thought of her daughter being a hot mom, Andrea replied, ‘She just can’t help it’
‘You can’t really go wrong with having a cool mom,’ Ferguson insisted
‘Typically people’s reactions depend on their age. It’s when we start hitting like 40, 45,’ she said. ‘They love to say that I should not be doing this, and I should not get my lips injected, and it looks terrible, and you’re a mom, and I’m like who cares that I’m a mom?
‘Moms are hot too. Like what, so I had kids and I can’t be hot anymore? Like no way.’
She added that she thinks her lifestyle and interests actually make her a ‘better mom.’ At the end of the episode, she and her husband treated their kids to pedicures at a local salon where they met up with her mom, Andrea.
When asked what she thought of her daughter being a hot mom, Andrea replied, ‘She just can’t help it.’
Ferguson noted that she thinks her children would be more likely to get bullied for having a ‘frumpy, old, not cool mom’ than they would for having her as a parent.
‘You can’t really go wrong with having a cool mom,’ she said. ‘Haters motivate me. They make me want to continue to blossom into the person that I am. And if I’m confident, mind your business.’
