A wealthy Florida mom has taken to social media to show off her ‘Milton proof’ mansion ahead of the Category 3 storm.
The woman, who goes by the name Kricketfelt on TikTok, shared multiple clips of her and her family’s preparations for the forceful storm, as she made it abundantly clear that they plan to hunker down in their massive ‘commercial grade’ home her husband built.
Even though Floridians have been told by local law enforcement and the government to evacuate their homes, the mother-of-three is staying put with her husband and Rottweiler named Zeus.
In her clips, the woman repeatedly cursed as she showed viewers around her Florida mansion, covered in concrete, with the shoreline right off her backyard.
Viewers quickly flocked to her videos with many of them ripping her apart for her ‘humble’ attitude, while others sent her well wishes and asked her to go live during Hurricane Milton.
‘Humble pie coming right up ma’am,’ a person wrote.

After documenting how her home fared during Hurricane Helene, which tore through the southeastern U.S. and took more than 185 lives just two weeks ago, the mother wasted no time showing her more than 182,000 followers her plans for the anticipated storm.
She filmed a large palm tree on her lawn with the caption across the frame: ‘This will really piss you off!’

The woman then panned over to her massive home, fitted with a large stone driveway filled with pick-up trucks and construction workers helping her family prepare for the storm.
‘That’s why I’m not leaving. My husband built this house, my husband built this house commercial,’ she explained.
‘It’s residential but it was built commercial grade. It’s solid concrete.
‘I don’t give a f*** what people [say] – “Oh, you’re so rich, oh you’re so rich, oh my God,” whatever f*** you, my husband’s a builder,’ she gloated.

‘Well aren’t you just a humble Ray of sunshine,’ another wrote.
‘But who is she fighting with I’m confused why is she so mad,’ another said.
‘DON’T you DARE call any emergency services if this goes south for you,’ someone commented.

The woman’s videos quickly circulated online, sparking others to create their own reaction clips to her explosive comments.
One woman, who goes by the name radotv1029, posted a video on Wednesday morning and said: ‘Ya’ll, why that lady out in Florida, that little rich lady with the three-story home, mad at the internet?
‘Baby, we would’ve never known you was at your house still trying to ride out this wave of Milton if you never posted. Lady, what’s wrong with you?’
She then shared her sympathy for the workers helping the Florida mom get ready for the treacherous storm.
‘I just feel bad for the workers that she got working on her house. Prayers for them, hope they get their families to safety,’ she said.
Others agreed with the TikToker, as one said: ‘Hopefully you and your husband offered a safe place for those tradesmen (and their family) out there preparing your house for the storm to stay,’ under a clip of them boarding up her doors and windows.
In that same clip she showed her 26-year-old son’s car in the driveway as she revealed he has decided to leave the home before the storm comes.
‘Not making him stay here, it’s his choice,’ she added.
Hurricane Milton is expected to impact part of Florida, including Tampa Bay, on Wednesday night.
The once-in-a-century weather event’s winds have begun to hit Florida’s Gulf Coast. Milton is a Category 5 hurricane with winds of 160mph, according to a 5am National Hurricane Center update.

It sits around 300 miles off the coast of Tampa and is moving towards the city at around 14 miles an hour.
Forecasters expect Milton to make landfall as a Category 4 hurricane with winds of 130mph.
The greatest danger is posed by the wall of water, known as a storm surge, that Milton will whip up. That could see up to 15 feet of water inundate Tampa Bay. Residents have been warned to evacuate, with the city’s airport closed yesterday.
Although many have decided not to evacuate, others have vacated their homes and have taken to the traffic-ridden streets of Florida to find shelter in safe zones, with many attempting to travel out of state.
On Tuesday, thousands of people were scrambling to flee the Sunshine State after local officials issued a stark warning overnight advising residents to ‘flee or die’ before the monster storm packs furious winds and gushes walls of water inland on Wednesday.
Drivers were seen sitting in standstill traffic as the state’s major highways remained clogged with miles-long lines of cars trying to flee the line of danger. Traffic was jammed both north and southbound as locals sought shelter out-of-state and in Miami.
