Pilot’s Romantic Note to Influencer Divides Internet Opinion

Influencer Steph Bohrer’s viral post featuring a mysterious airport note sparks contrasting reactions over its sincerity and intentions.

Steph Bohrer, a 23-year-old influencer from Charleston, SC, shared a viral video showing a handwritten note left by a pilot at an airport calling her 'the most beautiful woman in the world.'
The note, written on a napkin and placed on her table without the pilot introducing himself, quickly gained over 11 million views on TikTok and sparked widespread online discussion.
Social media reactions were split, with some finding the gesture romantic and likening it to a 'meet-cute,' while others questioned the pilot's motives, suggesting he might be married or habitually use such lines.
Bohrer, who did not see the pilot’s face or receive any contact information, captioned the video with Taylor Swift’s song 'Enchanted,' adding to the romantic tone of the post.
The incident has reignited debates about public displays of admiration, with some defending the pilot’s gesture as a harmless compliment and others viewing it as potentially insincere or inappropriate.
