The surprise family visit

When they turn and realise who it is, their shock is immediate. One gentleman screams in excitement, “I knew it, nobody's going to make me dom (stupid),” and walks away, still trying to take in the surprise. He returns, overcome with emotions, to hug her and lift her a couple of times after she greeted and hugged everyone else at the gate.

The clip then transitions to a daytime event, showing the young lady walking into a beautifully decorated venue filled with even more family members. The moment she steps inside, everyone, from the youngest children to the oldest relatives, screams in excitement. Kids run to warmly embrace her, and she moves around the room, hugging all of them and receiving love everywhere.
