Brianna Cry recently shocked her grandparents with an unforgettable surprise—a trip to Paris. A video of their emotional reaction quickly went viral, touching hearts around the world.
In the TikTok video, Brianna hands her grandparents a card with a heartfelt message, and her grandfather starts tearing up almost immediately, even before her grandmother finishes reading it. When they realize the surprise is a trip to Paris, their emotions overflow. The video has racked up over 600,000 views, and it’s easy to see why.
Brianna said she planned the trip as a way to thank her grandparents, who adopted and raised her. After years of working hard through school and finally earning an income, Brianna wanted her first big purchase to be a meaningful gift to show her gratitude.
Paris was especially meaningful for her grandmother, who had always dreamed of visiting the city. Just a day before Brianna revealed the surprise, her grandmother casually mentioned plans to visit Paris in 2026—unaware that Brianna had already booked their trip.
“I am beyond blessed and grateful to them for providing me with the love, support, education, and experiences that have made it possible for me to give back in this way,” Brianna said.
Their Paris itinerary includes iconic sights like the Louvre and the Palace of Versailles, and since both Brianna and her grandmother share a love for the arts, they plan to attend a ballet at the Palais Garnier. It’s shaping up to be a trip of a lifetime—and a beautiful way for Brianna to honor the people who’ve given her so much.
