Dietrich, who resides in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, already had two kids. She became a viral sensation this week after she live streamed a video of herself on Facebook where she was seen doing a hilarious impression of April the giraffe while wearing a giraffe mask. Her post was viewed by over 30 million users on Facebook.

The Animal Adventure Park Giraffe Cam, which features April the giraffe, which has been pregnant for 15 months now, on a YouTube live stream, is being watched by millions of users around the world.

The New York park wrote an update about the pregnant giraffe in a post Wednesday.

"April remains in great condition with no concerns from keepers or our vet team. Activity in the belly remains very visible to the eye - even through the web cam! Slow and steady - mother nature has everything timed right. Keepers will be in shortly and any change will warrant an update!" the post read.

April has become no less than a celebrity because of all the attentions she is receiving. A tongue-in-cheek article recently published on Today, states: "Hello, humans of the Internet. I, April the pregnant giraffe, understand that you are interested in the impending birth of my calf. It is a joyous occasion to be sure, and I'm happy to share my joy with the hundreds of thousands of people watching my live stream on YouTube. But news flash: Staring at me and demanding ‘Where’s that baby already??’ is NOT helping."
