‘Karen’ caught on video telling woman wearing bikini on beach to ‘cover up’

A furious mum has been filmed confronting a woman on a beach, demanding she “cover up” her bikini as her sons were “staring”.

A young woman was enjoying her time at the beach when she was approached by an angry mum demanding she “cover up”.

Aurea Miranda, a dancer, originally from Mexico who now lives in New York, was at Freedom Lake in LaGrange, where the heated confrontation took place.

Aurea was in the middle of filming TikTok videos against the picturesque backdrop of the lake, when she said the woman stormed over – catching the moment on camera.

The unidentified woman, branded a “Karen”, told Aurea to “get her a** covered” because her sons were “staring” at her, while insisting she couldn’t “be nude on a beach”.

In the video, the woman can be seen going over to Aurea, as she posed in her G-string bikini, demanding she change her choice of attire.

“You see those group of boys over there? Those are my boys. They’re staring at you’re a** which is hanging out in the middle of a public place,” the woman told Aurea.

“Do you need a pair of shorts? Because I have an extra pair.”

Confused, Aurea responded: “What do you mean?” to which the mother replied: “I mean get your a** covered, that’s what I mean. Thank you.”

Baffled by the woman’s outburst, Aurea then asked, “Is there a rule that says that?” to which she answered: “Yeah there is, it’s called nudity. You can’t be nude on a beach like this. It’s a public place.”

Aurea later confirmed with workers at the park that her swimsuit was fine to wear.

The young dancer posted the clips to her TikTok account which have since garnered more than 3.1 million views.

Many came to her defence while others said it was inappropriate to wear in a public, family area. Picture: Jam Press

“Why she can’t teach her boys not to stare,” one user said.

“Teach her boys to not stare at a girl minding her own,” wrote another, while a third added, “Lmao guys there is nothing wrong with what she’s wearing.”

Other demanded that people can wear “whatever they want” and perhaps the mother should “teach her boys not to stare”.

“Tell her to control her boys! Why does no one tell them to raise their boys better,” one woman demanded.

However, not everyone sided with the young dancer, with some sharing the view of the mother.

“I agree with the mum, this is def (sic) a lake, a more family setting,” one person wrote. “Your (Instagram) shows you were basically wearing a G-string, def (sic) not appropriate for a lake.”

In a separate video, a group of guys can be seen lingering in the background staring at Aurea while she filmed her video.
