In the video, Jamie can be seen holding up a set of keys before throwing them to his dad.
When questioned what he was doing, Jamie told him: "I've just paid off your mortgage".
When his dad fails to believe him, Jamie goes on to explain: "I've just rung the bank and paid off every single penny left on your mortgage, you now own this whole house – I swear."
In the sweet moment when Richard asks him why he did that, Jamie replies: "Because I love you".
He went on to say that his dad had "worked his whole life" and now he can retire.
Later, Richard can be seen crying as he tells his son: "You're just the best son in the world you could have."
He then makes his son hold out his hands as he gives the keys back, telling Jamie: "It's in the will, the house is yours. What's mine is yours".
In a follow up video, Jamie can be seen getting emotional after his dad tells him that he has left the house to him in his will.
