In a tеаrful video, Jessica Alba shocked her parents by purchasing the house her father grew up in

Jessica Alba is sharing the emotional moment she surprised her parents with a soon-to-be renovated home — but it wasn’t just any house!

On Friday, Aug. 30, the Trigger Warning actress — who teams up with co-host Lizzy Mathis on their Roku Original series Honest Renovations — shared a video to her YouTube channel about a «special renovation» that the pair were behind: her father’s childhood home.

«Almost three years ago, I started the project of my dreams… I surprised my parents by buying them a house!! Now, it wasn’t just any house — it was extra sentimental as it was my grandfather’s house that my father grew up in 🥹,» Alba, 43, wrote in the video’s description.

«After my grandfather passed away, my parents were planning on selling the house in order to pay for my grandmother’s medical bills. Well… I pretended like I was going to help them flip it before selling when in reality, I had planned to buy it for them all along.»

Alba revealed in the clip that the family home was going to «be put up for sale,» given that her grandmother requires 24/7 care, so she decided to update it with the help of Mathis and a family friend (and contractor) named Tinku.

After gutting the house and locking in floor plans, Alba broke the news to her parents in a portion of the video recorded in June 2021 and published this week.

«The last piece of the puzzle is I have been trying to figure out how to tell you guys that I’m gonna buy you guys this house,» Alba said. «So don’t buy it yourself.»

The video then cut to a shot of Alba hugging her parents — Mark and Catherine — as they became visibly emotional. «Now the house that you grew up in, Dad, is yours,» Alba said, before Mark sat down and covered his face, telling his daughter that her grandfather would «be proud of you.»

«I know he’d be really proud of my baby girl,» he later added. «I’m able to live in the house and hopefully make him proud.»
