“When mommy is on FaceTime telling her that we’ll see her on Thanksgiving and daddy shows up out of nowhere and surprises her… #ParentalTeamWork #SheForgotDaddyHadBackSurgery #HadToActivateTheGlutesRealQuick #HUHomecomingScenes #YouKnow,” Kodjoe wrote in his caption.
Sophie was so excited to see her father that she forgot about his recent back surgery, which he joked about in his written caption. The HU freshman excitedly jumped into his arms, bringing him slightly to the ground as they embraced. After the excitement, Sophie remembered her mother, actress Nicole Ari Parker, was still on FaceTime. The two laughed before Sohpie yelled, “Yay!” at the camera.
