On Sunday, celebrity parents Betty Kyallo and Dennis Okari threw a lavish birthday party for their daughter Ivanna, who turned 6 years old. The emotional event was captured on Betty's YouTube channel.
Betty, a former news anchor, opened up about Ivanna's hospitalization last year and her fears of losing her only child. Grateful that Ivanna is alive and doing well, the family decided to celebrate her birthday in style.
During the party, Dennis got down on his knees to wish Ivanna a great year ahead and to declare his love for her. In a heartfelt tribute, he said, 'I will be the first man to go on my knees for you. Before that other boy comes. So, listen. You are the most intelligent, smartest, beautiful and precious daughter anyone would want in this world.'
He added, 'I love you. Love you. Love you sooo much. Happy birthday. May you enjoy many many more. I pray for God's blessings on your life. You are going to impact your generation.'
As Dennis finished his tribute with a kiss on Ivanna's left cheek, Betty was overcome with emotion, tears rolling down her face.
