The clip shows the mom sitting on a sofa as another woman tells her ‘I just want to make it really special for you so I want you to…’ before she cuts out as if she is about to cry.
A man off to the side tells the mother to ‘close your eyes’ before she is instructed to stand up, stifling her sniffles.
As the woman tells the mother to ‘start from the top and rip it,’ @Cheeyannahh walks to the other side of the couch and stands behind waiting for her mother to see her.
