A high school football mom named Amber Wright, who also goes by Amber Lund on social media, caused something of a stir this week.
Last month Amber found herself going viral after a video of her loving embrace of her high school football star son went viral.
The reactions to that special moment between mom and son were deeply polarizing. Some suggested that Amber’s way of celebrating with her boy was inappropriate. Others disagreed.
There was so much hubbub surrounding the whole thing that Amber had to address the matter with news outlets.
“One of my best friends recorded the moment where Brix picked me up and I thought it was so cute,” Wright told TODAY.com.
“I was so proud. I was a proud mom hugging her kid. I never expected it to turn into something where people are like, ‘You’re sexually abusing him! You’re grooming him! I’m calling child protective services.’”
As a result of all the attention Amber received in the aftermath, both positive and negative, a number of her wild social media photos went viral.
In a strange football weekend that saw Joe Burrow’s girlfriend go viral over her outfit choice and Deion Sanders’ handsy encounter with Molly Qerim cause a stir, this particular story is just par for the course.
It’s a wacky news cycle like that.

In any case, though – Amber doesn’t seem too bothered by all chatter.
What will she end up utilizing her newfound celebrity for when everything is said and done? Time will tell.
