Alicia Mae Holloway, a TikTok user, shared the interesting way that fate played a role in her adoption. Holloway’s biological mother made the heart-wrenching decision to give her up for adoption, a decision based on a complex family situation and the fact that she knew the baby would not be accepted by some family members.
At the outset, Holloway shared a candid recount of her birth story through a TikTok video, revealing a tale that is as complex as it is touching. Her biological mother, married to a white man and mother to three white children, found herself in a precarious situation when an affair with a black man led to pregnancy.
@aliciamaeholloway A real parent is somebody that loves you uncontrollably and unconditionally. That is exactly who my dad is to me. He’s more of a dad than most biological fathers I know and our bond is one only God could make🤎Someone took this video of my dad and I at a football game that completely embodies our relationship🫶🏽 #realparents #realparent #adopteddad #adoptedchild #adoption #adoptioncheck #adoptedparents #adoptedparent #adoptedparentsaremyrock #daddydaugther #daddydaughter🥰 #daddydaughterlove #daddaughtergoals ♬ original sound – davi
In a family where racial prejudices ran deep, the arrival of a mixed-race child was something Holloway’s birth mother knew would not be accepted. Faced with an impossible situation, Holloway’s birth mother made the difficult decision to give her unborn child up for adoption. Yet, she was uncertain about how to navigate the process of finding a suitable home for her daughter.
In an unexpected turn of events, Holloway’s birth mother joined a support group in Washington, Pennsylvania, hoping to find peace with her decision. During the first meeting, held in a nondescript warehouse with 40-50 attendees, she shared her story, voicing her fears and uncertainties about giving her baby up for adoption.
Little did she know, her vulnerability would pave the way for a miraculous encounter. At the end of the meeting, a couple approached her with a proposition that was nothing short of serendipitous. They told her that their psychic, whom they had consulted weekly for a year, had foreseen this meeting, instructing them to attend because it would be where they finally found their baby.

Despite the oddity of the situation, the couple’s desire to adopt resonated with Holloway’s birth mother, leading her to consider the possibility that these strangers could provide the loving home she wished for her daughter. The story gained even more depth as Holloway shared another video, this time narrating the perspective of her adoptive parents.
They had longed for a child to complete their family, yet faced their own set of challenges. Holloway’s adoptive mother, unable to have more children due to age and health issues, turned to a psychic for guidance. The psychic told Holloway’s adoptive mother, who already had three sons, that one of her sons would have financial issues, one would have health issues, and one would be a successful businessman.

The same psychic gave Holloway’s mother the exact address of the place where she would find her adoptive daughter. All four of the psychic’s predictions came true for the Holloway family. This support meeting, they believed, was the culmination of their hopes and the psychic’s guidance, presenting them with the opportunity to adopt Holloway. Soon after, they became her parents.
Soon after Holloway posted her story on TikTok, it went viral, with people flocking to the comments section of the post to share their views and ask questions. Many people wanted to know if the psychic that Holloway’s parents had seen was still in business and where they could find her because her predictions were so accurate.
@aliciamaeholloway YES they are BOTH named Kenny😅 Who do I look more like? #dad #adoption #adopted #adoptionstory #adopteddad #biologicaldad #birthfather #morgantownwv #pittsburgh #bestdadever #greenscreen ♬ The videos under this audio breaks my heart – •.༺𝓕𝓻𝓮𝓳𝓪༻.•
Others remarked that Holloway and her adoptive parents seemed to have a soul contract which meant she was destined to be with them. Some others shared their own stories of adoption and asked Holloway how it had affected her knowing she was adopted. Some commenters felt traumatized that they were adopted while others were grateful to be adoptees. One commenter said the story was so touching that it brought tears to their eyes.
They also mentioned how amazing it was that everything was planned out for everyone, even if the situation seemed dire in the beginning. Many commenters felt that Holloway’s story was the perfect material for a Lifetime movie. Holloway responded positively to many of these comments and later shared videos showing her adoptive and her biological parents. These posts also gained some traction as people were intrigued by her family’s story and wanted to see the people who had raised her.
