A conversation between a radio jockey (RJ) and an elderly caller has left people emotional. Captured on camera, the video shows how the RJ teared up when she came to know what the man intends to do if he wins a certain amount of prize money on her show.
Hits Radio shared the video on their official Twitter handle that shows RJ Hattie Pearson’s emotional reaction. The video shows Pearson asking the caller, “What would you do with the money?” In reply, the elderly man says, “I would buy a gravestone for my late wife’s grave.” He then goes on to explain how as a pensioner it was tough for him to get a gravestone when his wife passed away six years ago. Pearson then informs him that he is the winner and is going to receive £105,000. The man’s voice quivers upon hearing this and he thanks Pearson. The video ends with Pearson saying how the man’s story has left her emotional. Throughout the video, she is also seen fighting to hold back her tears.
