The young man’s success is truly something that his dad would have been proud of – but since LaShawn is gone, he can’t celebrate with his family. But it was his wife, April Daniels, who made waves on the internet for her joyous reaction to her son’s success.
In a video shared on Twitter by Black Entertainment Television (BET) from April’s IG account, the proud mom could be seen standing anxiously behind Jett as the young man checked the results on his laptop.
“Her reaction after her son passed the Bar exam. IG/AprilDaniels,” BET wrote in the caption.
“This is the late Lashawn Daniel’s wife and son. Amazing to see his family with such joy.”
As soon as Jett saw his name on the screen, he started crying silently as he celebrated his success. His mom had a more energetic reaction as she jumps around, happily praising the Lord for giving them this wonderful blessing.
“Hallelujah!” she could be heard shouting with happiness.
Some netizens commented that April kept on praising God for her son’s success but did not congratulate her son right away. However, others defended her actions and pointed out that people react differently in any situation.
Moments later, she did hug her son and surely congratulated him for his achievement. Here’s the sweet video:
