TikToker Tini Younger Shares Update on Surviving Baby After Death of Twin
Tineke “Tini” Younger isn’t mincing words with her critics.
One day after the TikTok chef shared an update on her and husband Antoine Wright Jr.’s family life following the tragic death of one of their twin daughters Arya, Tini opened up about her frustrations with online users who accused the 24-year-old of stealing her viral mac and cheese recipe.
“This is the least of my problems because it’s literally Mac n cheese,” she began the Jan. 3 Instagram Stories post, “But that recipe is MINE.”
As a response to online users speculating that she profited off the recipe that secretly came from her husband’s family, she even went on to explain how she taught Antoine’s mom how to make the holiday dish—not the other way around.
“Antoine’s mom did not teach me how to make it, it’s not her recipe,” she continued. “I literally have a video teaching my in laws how to make MY recipe to Mac n cheese. People like to believe things when it comes from a 3rd party instead of the actual person.”
She also called out critics for spreading misinformation about her line of work while she continues to mourn her daughter, who died shortly after birth following a placenta abruption in November.
“And to the people that are making videos about stupid Mac n cheese and making it a problem, I’m glad Mac n cheese is a problem to you,” she added, “and could only wish that Mac n cheese is my problem.

Tini continued, “And to the people bringing my deceased daughter into 'Mac n cheese drama' and using it to get more views on your post, I hope you rot in hell no sugar coat.”
Tini’s remarks came just one day after sharing a personal life update on her and Antoine’s life as new parents to their other baby, simply referred to as L, amid their family’s grieving process.
“Just wanted to hop on socials real quick and just let everyone know L (baby b) is doing good, we love her so much,” Tini wrote on Instagram Jan. 2 alongside pictures with the newborn. “We remind her everyday about Arya and Arya definitely plays with her sister in her dreams.”
She also added, “L loves to smile in her sleep.”
The Next Level Chef alum also offered an update on her hiatus from social media following Arya’s death.
“I’m not sure when I will be back,” she continued. “I’m still emotionally and physically trying to heal, I’ve had some complications during my postpartum which I’m still trying to recover from.”
Tini concluded her message by adding, “Thank you to everyone who sends love.”
