Logan Paul faces backlash for using fiancee Nina Agdal's labor as a marketing ploy to promote Lunchly
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Logan Paul has found himself at the center of controversy after a marketing stunt involving his fiancee Nina Agdal's labor.
The YouTuber-turned-professional wrestler, who recently welcomed his first child with Nina, used the birth of their daughter as a promotional opportunity for his latest venture, Lunchly, a pre-packaged lunch kit created in collaboration with MrBeast.

However, netizens were quick to point out that what should have been a special moment was overshadowed by Logan's attempt to advertise his new venture.
In a series of Snapchat posts, Logan shared images from the hospital room where Nina lay in bed, presumably after giving birth, as per Daily Mail.
Instead of focusing solely on the birth of their daughter, Logan took the opportunity to showcase Lunchly by posing with the product.
He also shared a snap of his fiancee surrounded by purple lights, with the caption, "I turned the hospital room into a vibe."

Internet rips Logan Paul for using Nina Agdal's labor for marketing Lunchy
Netizens slammed Logan Paul, noting that it was "extremely unnecessary" for him to turn such a private moment into a marketing ploy.
One expressed, "At least he’ll see what prime will do to a child," and another said, "You already know they failed this product so badly."
"Using your NEWBORN child and wife to promote your s****y lunchables knockoff is just extremely unnecessary," fumed a person, while someone else remarked, "Let’s see if he gives prime or lunchly to his kid."
"Wthhh, I’m definitely done with Logan Paul. This is crazy," said an individual. One more wrote, "We’re SO cooked. And the worst part is that it’s just going to get worse from here."
"What a crappy businessman," declared one more.
You already know they failed this product so badly 😂😂😂
