Paris Hilton sparked some panic on social media after some eagle-eye followers noticed her children’s car seats were improperly installed.
The former Simple Life star posted a video on TikTok heading to a Mother’s Day brunch. However, fans were focusing on how Hilton’s six-month-old daughter, London, and 1-year-old son Phoenix were forward-facing in their car seats.
“Taking the #CutesieCrew to #MothersDay brunch in my new #SlivingMom van,” she captioned the video. Per Dictionary.com, “Sliving,” a word Hilton created, is a blend of “slang slaying and living (your best life).”
The concerned fans quickly responded by commenting about the car seat placements. “Please hire someone to install car seats,” one follower stated.
Other followers pointed out that the placement was “crazy unsafe.”
It appears Paris Hilton removed the video from her TikTok account. But Daily Mail reposted the clip and the comments just kept coming.

CPST and Baby Gear Expert Jamie Grayson Shares Some Car Seat Safety Advice For Paris Hilton
Jamie Grayson, CPST, baby gear expert, and TikTok creator, responded to Paris Hilton’s video by offering the famed socialite some advice on car seat safety.
Pointing out that he respects Hilton for her intelligence, her work on former abducted teens, and all the other good things she does with her platform, Grayson said, “There was really bad misuse with using those seats forward-facing.”
Grayson also said that not only is it dangerous to have children this young forward-facing in vehicles, but it is also illegal to do so. “You cannot have those children facing forward at this age,” he reiterated.
Grayson pointed out that while others are continuing to stitch the video as well as criticize and attack Paris Hilton for how the car seats were installed, he is coming from a helpful place.
“Just know that I’m here if you need help,” he said directly to Hilton. “And if I’m not able to help you, I know a ton of people that I could easily connect you to get some car seat help. If you need it, if you want it.”
Noting that he’s currently at a trade show in Las Vegas, Grayson ended the video by encouraging Paris Hilton to “continue to sliving.”
