Emma's caption was in reference to her mom's former lack of boundaries.
In 2020, Emma's mom, Kelly Cunningham, publicly confirmed the actress's pregnancy with ex Garrett Hedlund. That incident resulted in her blocking her mom on Instagram.
"I was keeping my pregnancy pretty low-key, but unfortunately my mother has Instagram. Mothers and Instagram, it's a bad combination," she told Jimmy Kimmel in a previous interview. "She spilled the beans."
Kelly waited this time around.
Emma's mom thankfully didn't spill the beans before she had a chance to share the news herself this time around. After the "I Wanna Be" singer revealed her engagement, Kelly shared the post to her Instagram Stories with a "Congratulations!" written across it.
