Tiffany Haddish had an emotional reunion with her social worker during her comedy show.
The comedian, 46, shared a touching video on Instagram of herself overcome with emotion after being surprised by her social worker, Coleta Lewis, in the audience at her recent stand-up show.
“Holiday Reunion with my social worker. Thank you, Coleta, for everything 💕,” Haddish wrote of the sweet reunion in the caption.
In the clip, the Girls’ Trip star is seen onstage looking out in the audience as Lewis says to her, “I don’t know if you remember me, my name is Coleta Lewis.”
“Coleta Lewis! My social worker!” Haddish says, immediately recognizing Lewis. “Turn the lights on,” she next shouts out, before leaving the stage to hug Lewis.
Haddish is next seen back onstage, tearfully telling Lewis, “You saved my life. I'm where I'm at now because of you. Because you encouraged me, you were one of the first people to believe in me. Thank you. I love you."
Haddish explained to the audience that Lewis supported her through her substance abuse issues and gave some much-needed direction and focus in life.
