Majella O’Donnell yesterday surprised husband Daniel with a special wedding anniversary video at an American gig.
Majella, 53, who is battling cancer, was thousands of miles away from the country star as they celebrated being married for 11 years.
She decided to shock the singer on stage in Branson, Missouri, with a sweet video as she couldn’t travel to be there in person.
Fans watched as Majella – who wore a scarf over her shaved head – told how she “can’t wait for him to get home” and that she needs her “wonderful husband” back with her in Ireland.
She said: “Please excuse this interruption into your afternoon’s entertainment. For those of you who don’t know, I am Majella O’Donnell, and I am Daniel’s wife. Today is our 11th anniversary. I can’t be with him and I normally am. I normally go to Branson every year.
“I look forward to seeing all the regulars and I’m missing all of that this year.
“I wanted to say hi to all, but particularly to send my love to Daniel today, and to tell him I don’t know what I’d do without him.”
Daniel later revealed the video was a complete surprise.
He said: “This is the first year we haven’t been together. During the show I sang the song Wherever You Are and dedicated it to her.
“Little did I know she had a video message made as a surprise to be played during the show.”
