In a viral video from October 2020, Richins, KB, and Karrisyn embarked on yet another road trip, but this time the atmosphere was somber. KB had recently experienced a breakup and struggled to sing “I’ll Never Love Again” by Lady Gaga.
In the footage, KB attempted to sing but faltered, expressing a tightness in her throat and feelings of embarrassment. Richins, heard consoling her, encouraged her to embrace her emotions, reassuring her that people would relate to her pain.
Karrisyn, offering support from the backseat, encouraged her sister as KB made a second attempt. Richins reached out for her hand as she poured her heartache into the song, visibly moved to tears by his daughter’s anguish.
The emotional video has garnered over 10.6 million views, with countless viewers praising Richins for his compassionate and supportive fatherly role.
Comments poured in, acclaiming Richins as a deserving candidate for “dad of the year,” applauding his genuine empathy and willingness to share in his daughter’s sorrow.
“What an amazing dad. He truly deserves the dad of the year award!” “I admire how she reached for her dad’s hand, and he didn’t hesitate to comfort her.” “This father’s reaction is truly beautiful. Instead of dismissing her pain, he embraced it alongside her. Absolutely heartwarming!”
