The freshest morning alarmer for Benny by Becca Kufrin is a Disney musical in the kitchen. The Bachelorette alum posted a video of her and fiancé Thomas Jacobs singing ‘A Whole New World’ from Aladdin and dancing their way around the house, while the dogs looked on in complete bewilderment, and Benny may very well have cherished the experience. The caption read, “Bet breakfast AND a show wasn’t on Benny’s bingo card when he woke up this morning.” Thereafter, they would ask their viewers for song suggestions.

The spontaneous singing dash illustrated a further portion of their reality TV fame: Kufrin belted her way through a hilarious vocal rendition while Jacobs carried her off the ground at the height of that duet; so serious is the chemistry these two share beyond Bachelor nation origins. The dogs look so confused at the absurdity of the musical that it nearly feels like they’re one of the family members, worthy of praise pouring in from Instagram followers in the comments section. A well-meaning follower summed it up perfectly: “I love that Benny gets to grow up seeing his parents love deeply. What a gift.”
Many applauded Jacobs’ dancing, one writing, “Lowkey Thomas I’m impressed. You remembered all your steps.” Jacobs replied jokingly that all he really worried about was remembering to feed Benny some breakfast bites during the number. The crowd seemed entranced by the couple’s playful interplay as numerous comments applauded their journey “from Bachelor in Paradise to parents.” A longtime follower, that has been following them since their television beginnings, stated: “Benny is so lucky to have you two as his parents.”
Immediately following this top-notch performance, the comments section was inundated with song requests for future acts: “You’re the One That I Want” from Grease, and “So This Is Love” from Cinderella, among others. There were also enthusiastic calls for the duo to appear on Dancing With the Stars, with one commenter adding, “That lift was everything. Someone get them on @dancingwiththestars STAT.” Some people couldn’t get past the puzzled reactions from the dogs, with one person confessing that they “rewatched just for the dogs’ reactions.”

Out of this surreal and humorous exchange came a single comment with a painful degree of vulnerability. A user shared in difficulty: about feeling lost, overwhelmed. Though it obviously contrasted with the post’s cheerful atmosphere, it is a stark reminder of what social media is: a place for both joyful family moments and real human pain. Most of the rest of the comments celebrated the couple’s obvious joy, as one user aptly summed it up: “I LOVE you two together… well three.” They are documenting unfiltered moments as neither Kufrin nor Jacobs believe it is just about Instagram content, leaving memories for their son’s childhood. Judging by the comments, people are here for every musical number, every bewildered dog reaction, and every awkward breakfast dance.
