A woman was left mortified when she opened a gift off her mum that looked, ahem, like a sex toy.
Shelby Donovan, an 18-year-old from New Orleans, Louisiana, opened the following gift in front of her whole family on Christmas day.
Needless to say, she wanted the ground to swallow her whole.

Donovan told The Huffington Post: βI kind of just stared at it for a really long time, trying to come up with anything else it could be besides a sex toy. Because who wants to say that in front of their family? NO ONE.β
In actual fact, sheβd been gifted a very tame, and in no way sexual, present: a cup holder.

Donovan added that she wasnβt the only one who presumed her present was for pleasurable purposes.
βMy grandmaβs [reaction] was definitely the best. She described it as, βBusiness in the morning, fun at nightβ.β
High five grandma.
