Dorrian’s mother Samantha filmed the viral moment shared between the lifelong friends.

‘I have been friends with Montana’s mum since we were 14 so they have known each other their whole lives,’ she said.

Ms Clarke revealed the pair have been unable to see each other as often because of the Covid-19 pandemic.

‘It’s been up and down,’ she said. ‘But we live in Adelaide so at the moment we have good restrictions. Twenty per household, hence why the party could go ahead.’

Dorrian gave his best friend a sweet 16th birthday photo frame. His mother revealed he had one more gift to give her.   

‘He is taking her out on Tuesday to get her nose pierced cause that’s what she wanted,’ she said. 

Social media users have been quick to take to the video and heap praise on Dorrian and the special friendship he shares with Montana.
