The Record revealed in October how the 22-year-old, from Airdrie, duped her friends and family into believing she had given birth to a tiny daughter named Bonnie-Leigh Joyce after strapping on a artificial baby bump for months. Her loved-ones then discovered that the “baby” was a realistic Reborn doll after her mum found it in her bedroom.

The supermarket worker has now posted on social media trying to punt the puppies of her dachshund, Roxie, to her followers. Posting on her Instagram story, Kira shared a post from a page dedicated to her three sausage dogs – Roxie, Reggie and River.

Kira asked for “genuine enquiries only” regarding the sale of two female and one male pups commencing the week of May 25. In the post she shared multiple photos and videos of the newborn dogs with their mum.

On February 18, Kira announced Roxie was pregnant with eight puppies. This comes after Roxie welcomed her first litter of six on June 21, last year.

In her web of lies, Kira posted baby scans, videos of a lavish gender reveal party in the lead-up to the ‘birth of her daughter’ before claiming she weighed 5lbs 4oz. The ‘mum’ also uploaded pictures of newborn clothes and items loved ones bought – including a £1,000 pram and a car seat – alongside what is believed to be AI-generated footage of the ‘baby’ kicking in her tummy.

She even wrote about hospital appointments and claimed ante-natal tests picked up a heart defect. The realistic reborn babies retail between £30 to £2,000 – with some versions even being able to make crying sounds and produce fake tears and wet nappies.

Kira was later seen telling the man she claimed was Bonnie-Leigh’s dad their baby had died in screenshotted messages.

The ‘mum’ broke her social media silence on Monday announcing she was quitting a reveal-all documentary, first revealed by the Record. Since then she has continued posting, including a selection of pictures appearing to show her celebrating St Patrick’s Day on holiday.

We revealed Kira signed the exclusive contract with production companies Soho Studios Entertainment and Glasgow-based Two Rivers Media to turn her scam into a documentary before she decided to quit the show telling her side of the hoax earlier this week.

In a statement released online, Kira said she withdrew because she didn’t feel it was the “right time” before apologising to all those she hurt, including her ex. A destination for the platform in which the documentary would be streaming from had not been decided prior to the severed ties.

We previously broke that following her actions, Kira resigned from the Orange Order after they launched a probe into whether she brought the organisation into disrepute. This came after we uncovered a video of the ‘mum’ parading in an Orange Order march while donning the dummy bump in July of last year in her hometown.

This sparked an investigation from the Grand Orange Lodge of Central Scotland to determine if her membership should be revoked. In February, Kira left the organisation after sending them a letter of resignation.
