Pregnant By My Tough Daddy CEO [2025]

We have dived into the vertical drama well again, and as excellent as the title of this one is, we actually started watching a different one, The Double Life Of My Billionaire Husband. About 50 minutes in, it started getting spliced with a different movie, which actually was the one of the title, and it turned out after some quick research that we had actually been watching Pregnant By My Tough Daddy CEO, an objectively funnier premise. While this movie did hit a lot of the same telenovela beats as the previous vertical drama we watched, 30 Years Frozen, the actors in that one were chewing all the scenery while these actors were basically asleep and had no chemistry. It was awesome.

The plot was another "the perfectest girl is bullied by everyone but wins in the end" vibe. In this case the girl, Aurora Sinclair, a porn star name if I've ever heard one, is rescued from bullying from her college roommate because she couldn't afford a bagel by a billionaire she once bought a water for three years ago (when he had been robbed or something? unclear). In a desperate financial situation, she gets a job as a slutty cocktail waitress and is again saved by harassment by the billionaire, Caleb Hunter. They have a one night stand - she's a virgin, he's mostly infertile, both these things are important - and in the morning he offers to pay for her mom's surgery misunderstanding her as a gold digger. Two months later she's pregnant with his twins, and he realizes the money request was a misunderstanding so he comes to find her, saving her from her evil brother, and decides they are going to get married. From there it's a series of her being mistreated by his mom (who she wins over with food and shopping), his cousin, her roommate again, a childhood friend of Caleb's, her brother and roommate again, and him constantly coming to her rescue. They are also awkward around sex in spite of her being pregnant with his twins. She's so pure and perfect, you see. She gives birth. They get married. Again, the good girl wins it all in the wish fulfillment fantasy of a preteen.

Again, another consistent laugh factory only paling in comparison to our previous vertical drama because that one's premise was just so much wackier and the acting was so much more earnest. Still a great watch though! How does one hit the limit on a no-limit credit card? Why would someone keep a used condom next to them in bed all night, only realizing it broke in the morning? Why did she buy a $50,000 dress and do those even exist when the billionaires on Succession don't even wear stuff that expensive? All questions this movie will make you ponder.
