The three-time Grand Slam champion Andy Murray and this mother Judy Murray engaged in a humorous activity on social media. As a consequence, Murray landed up embarrassing his mother. Judy took a few mandarin oranges and she clustered the fruits in such a manner that it spelled the word “HELLO”. Later she posted on Instagram with a caption, “How to say HELLO in mandarin”.

It seemed that 60-year-old Judy Murray was not comfortable with technology as she did not grow up with cellphones. The image posted was cropped with just ‘ELL’ letters visible in the post. With Judy’s innocence towards Instagram’s visual platform, Andy Murray explained her error via a comment and simultaneously warned her.

Hi, mum … you’ve done it again,” Murray commented. “Instagram is a visual platform so if you post a picture with half the content cut out it doesn’t work. You will get less likes and people will unfollow you, probably a wise decision on their part. This just looks like a few mandarins scattered on a table … I wouldn’t want people to think you’re a mad old lady. Please try and do better. Love from your baby boy. PS this is your final warning before I unfollow.”
