Viral ‘BBC dad’ tweets new family pics after six years | Trending

Six years ago, professor Robert E Kelly was speaking live on BBC News from his home office on the political scenario of South Korea with James Menendez. After a while, he was interrupted his daughter, who bounced into the room. Her little brother followed her in a ba walker. Although the kids crashed the live interview, the professor ignored the mayhem, maintained his composure, and comically continued. The video becomes even funnier when his wife enters the scene. She drags the kids and later closes the door on her knees. The video quickly went viral and left people rolling on the floor, laughing.

As the incident saw its sixth anniversary on March 10, the professor took to Twitter to share an update about his daughter Marion. He even shared a family picture. The picture shows Kelly and his wife, Jung-a Kim, posing with their kids, Marion and James. While many shared that they loved the pictures and blessed the family, others added that the video still brings smiles to their faces and is an absolute mood booster.
“Some BBC Dad content since the 6th anniversary of the original video was last Friday. Marion had a singing performance this past weekend, so we got some nice family pictures. Thanks again to all of you who follow me because of the video. My family and I are flattered your kindness,” wrote Robert E Kelly while sharing a few pictures of himself with his family.
