In this emotional video, Padraig surprised his entire family by returning home to Monaghan, Ireland.

This is what the Padraig’s sister told Storyful about the heartfelt moment: “My brother has been away for a year and a half in New Zealand and Australia. No one knew about his Christmas visit but as you can see we are so excited and won’t want him to go back!!!” Credit: Padraig McC via Storyful
