To which, the 16-year-old replied: "Yes dad is a very emotional guy, there were tears everywhere, to be honest. Even I was emotional. I hadn't seen them for a very long time, it has been amazing."

He added: "I asked my Yaya (grandmother) if she wants water every five minutes, and I kiss her every five minutes. I love them so much, it's good that we have seen them. There were emotional tears everywhere."

On Thursday, the Mysterious Girl singer revealed he had finally been reunited with his parents, sharing a sweet snap of him kissing his mum Thea.

He penned: "These last few days with my mum have been the greatest days in many many years. I can't begin to express how I feel to be with her. I’m happy now [three love heart emojis]."

The father-of-four has been pretty vocal about his anguish over the past few years, not being able to see his parents since the pandemic began - especially since his mum Thea's health is "declining".

"I feel great about being a year away from 50. I dreaded turning 40 but actually my forties have been really amazing, I feel relaxed, and in a very happy place career-wise and personally," he wrote in his new! column.

"The only thing that worries me about turning another year older is that my parents are getting older and my mum's health is really declining, which makes me sad. But everything else is going well and I feel great."
