Schulman ordered for Smashburger that added up to $61.29, but his generous tip was over a thousand times more than his order, even surpassing the 15%-20% restaurant gratuity agreed to by many etiquette resources.

It was a gesture that Reyes was most grateful for, as the waitress told Denver7 that it meant the world to her and her baby, and that they were not expecting it.

Reyes also revealed that her husband lost his job as a result of COVID-19 and that she was laid off for about a month in April. She only returned to work after businesses in America began to open gradually.

The expectant mom is due for delivery on September 26, a date that coincides with Schulman's birthday. It is for that reason that he gave Reyes a tip of $926, which is her due date.

Schulman recently said that he sometimes found himself thinking about the woman that catfished him.

Schulman also left her a note in which he congratulated her on the delivery of her baby girl, adding that fingers were crossed for September 26, before signing off with his name.
