A truly emotional and unforgettable moment unfolded on a UK-based airline, Jet2, as a wife bravely shared incredible personal news with hundreds of fellow passengers.

Shared on TikTok by @carroter.lou, the clip went viral, moving viewers across social media and leading to a large outpouring of well-wishes and support.

The video begins with the wife, visibly nervous, as she stands up to walk down the aisle of a plane packed with over 200 passengers. She begins to address the assembled travellers, her voice shaky but determined, asking them to join her in celebrating her partner for being an exceptional father.

Her husband stood in the aisle at the back, holding their baby, as if he had walked from the rear of the aircraft.
