You can tell Betty has such class and grace.
She acts like Patti. Love her.

And they kinda sound alike
I love how she wasn't acting like a fan but a friend to Patti.

I agree he brought me to tears also, all God bless ing t 6:08 o her and her family in Jesus name
Mom speaks eloquently too
The video is going a hundred miles per hour, can't understand nothing that they are saying
Betty is a friend of ours. She is every bit as wonderful as she seems!
I bet she is ... she oozes wonderful-ness!!!
Wondering if this wonderful woman is still here with us x
She seems to be a classy lady🌹💯
She seems like a true delight and divine diva! They don’t make them like her anymore.
Is her son available 🤭
Wow! She looks amazing for 80. I'm sitting here crying tears of joy for her. Beautiful!
Am I the only one who notice they look and talk alike. Also have the same personality. There so cute lol
Nope I noticed it as well sound a lot alike
she sounds like Patti. this made me smile SO hard.
Luckey F. Starr me too. They sound exactly alike ♥️
YES.....I picked up on that too!!!
80 my butt, she looks awesome, she's beautiful!!!
Beautiful lady, loving husband, wonderful son!!
I couldn't agree more Genevieve!!!
She very fortunate.
Loving yes, but not beautiful
She's absolutely beautiful! The first comment is correct.
80 yrs.old never looked SOOO good!! WOW!
I know, right. She took really good care of herself. Goals!
LaRhonda Burchett ikr...? i was about to say that. #blackdontcrackhoney... #Goodnight
+egnahc tour ditto
LaRhonda Burchett that's that SUNkissed skin;-)
I would've guessed in her early 70s at the most
She raise him good.... such a wonderful gift.
Awww I wanted to see Patti sing to her!!!! 😫 They actually look like they could be sisters. Her son did an awesome job for his mom!!!! ❤️
When the mom first spoke, I thought she sounded like Patti. If I live to be 80, I want to look that young.
Me too
And have a good looking husband too!!
Absolutely 💯
I just saw this. It was my first thought. Lol
This is just the sweetest family ever. The son and the husband are ADORABLE and his mama is sweet as pie. I want to hug her.
She saw Pattie and start flapping them wings lol jk
N C turned into an eagle 😂
That's one of Aunt Patti's famous moves.☺
80 is beautiful on her!!! Ms. Patti Labelle is such a people's person! She is Patty's kindred spirit
This is the most special thing I have ever seen someone do for their mom! You can fill the respect and love and adoration oozing from him! You can tell she was a mom to make sacrifices and poured into her children and her family! And I love how she was trying to maintain a certain level of etiquette, and humbleness when Patty walked out during the whole ordeal actually! She is so regal I love it 🥰
she sounds like Ms. Patti too... wow
creatorsist I thought that too
creatorsist YES.....DOESN'T SHE THOUGH....WOW
ikr!
The way her & her husband looked at eachothr, embraced & kissed was so cute & timeless ❤🥰💋
What a blessing!!! Happy 80th Ms Betty! 🎂
Kiki K Darling what a special day today ..She looks very young...charming.. She is an inspiration to all coming mothers
Yes, indeed!
Patti is such a sweet soul
I adore her too
Her legacy in the music industry will never be forgotten
That is a beautiful 80 year old lady!!!
Miss Betty is a looker.
Wow she does not look 80 she is a beautiful lady and I wish her a wonderful mothers day this beautiful lady looks so sweet and loving
80 ain't old no more ya'll!
Yep.... My mom is 92 and still hang out like she's 50. God Bless My Mom.
You betta say that again!!! 😊😉
We should all follow Patti's example and say that we're whatever years YOUNG (not old). After losing her parents and all her sisters early, she knows firsthand that nobody is "old"...that life is not just short but much shorter for countless others. So out of respect for those lost and ourselves, Patti preaches that we call ourselves young in order to cherish and celebrate life.
wow this segment just brought me to tears and I don't even know this family but I pray that God continue to bless her on her 80th birthday I hope her mother's day was special
CherieAmor M amen
So true. Wonderful son and her hubbie's hair is so nice!
Yes Im up here crying as well. Her spirit is beautiful and she and her husband did a great job raising that son!
me too...happy tears
I cried too.

Love this!!! She is so sweet and Ms. Patti is the best! 2 beautiful Queens!!!
This made me cry. So sweet.
I did too!
Awwwww I miss my mother telling me the same things. My siblings and I had one beautiful moma we miss her dearly she would always stay up until I got of work she always cooked my favorite foods but our mother was a mother a father a confidant a nurse a woman of God. Moma never had a favorite child she loved each and everyone of us in our own special way. We have had heavy hearts. Right after her my big sister passed away with metastatic breast cancer. She fought a hard fight for two years never in remission. When my eldest sister which was my mom very first child and her son my brother passed away. She had took all she could. When God steps in he definitely shows out. When God picked our mother for his heavenly garden, oh what a beautiful flower a singing and just lovely mother, grandmother and great grandmother. Missing her always we love you moma.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇
OMG, This was EVERYTHING!!!🥰
my heart is crying tears filled with joy. GOD BLESS
What a beautiful nice looking couple. 🙏🏽🌹❤️God bless her son and God bless Ms Patty LaBelle. They are all Blessed
This had me crying. So sweet. ❤
Wow!!!! She sounds like Patti too....
This was by far the best and most humble guest... I loved it
Oh she is so beautiful and doing 80 very well. And I love Patti so much and even more for coming out to celebrate this special lady Birthday and Mother Day..... God Bless
What a great video, shows the kindness of people. Such lovely people in this video x
See this is why I love Miss Patti LaBelle , so giving & loving
That was so cool. I cried inside because I may never ever get to feel that special. I've given birth to 5 children, have 3 grand children and have taught probably hundreds more children over my 29 years of teaching and never have I ever been celebrated like that. I am thankful however that every child that I've taught remembers me as their favourite teacher. So I guess that's good enough. Happy Mother's Day to all the Mothers and all the ladies who love like mothers out there. 🎉❤
They do favor for real I love it so happy for her
She is a beautiful and adorable woman!!!
She does act like Patti, they do have similarities 🥰😭💝 that was a wonderful gift for mom, like the Royal 👑 treatment.
Happy Birthday Mrs Betty!! God has and will truly continue to bless you!
Happy birthday ms Betty hats off to your son ;you raised him well...god bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
What a wonderful experience to have. Miss Patti is such a gracious Christian lady, known for her cooking, and her voice is exquisite.
I love this!!! Thank you!!! I wish I had a Mom like that!
Great surprises, I'm only 36 and I love Patti! I would've lost it great job momma!!
Carla Linton. It is a blessing for someone to still be living at the age of 80 Years Old.
Beautiful woman! ❤ So deserving!
Happy Birthday & Mother's Day from one Floridian to another! 🌞🎂🎈🎉🎁🎆🎇🎊
My eyes are watering--her getting to meet Patti.
This was so sweet you can tell how much she admire and appreciate Miss Patty coming out to celebrate her birthday and how honored she was to be in your presence... She just kept looking at her face and disbelief and kissing her which is a show of respect and I just thought this was a beautiful story so thanks for posting
She's such a graceful and elegant woman. Her and Patti both. I enjoyed this video.
This beautiful lady just made my day!! What an amazing woman!
OK!!!! Watching This Made Me Both Happy And Sad At The Same Time. Happy, Cuz This Brother Was Able To Bring Joy To His Mother On Her Special Day,,,, And Sad, Cuz I Would Have Loved To Have Done This For My Mom Who Died From Cancer 7 Years Ago. Real Talk, We Have To Express Our Love, Gratitude, And Appreciation To Our Parents While They Are Still Here.
I knew the feeling my mom died in 2013
She sound like Patti!!!! This was beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
What an elegant wonderful lady! So nice to see!
