Fashion designer Christian Siriano surprised his mother with a luxurious house.
While attending City Harvest’s Carnival event on April 22 in New York City’s Cipriani, the design extraordinaire shared exclusively with HELLO!, how he kept the secret under wraps for a year.
When Christian first shared the news with his mother that he’s moving forward with his decision to purchase the home, his mother, Joye Siriano was in disbelief.
Christian revealed: “I think I told her I was gonna buy it, but she didn’t really believe me, so I think when she really actually walked in – it’s one of those moments – like, I wish I filmed it you know?”
He further explained that he felt it was something he had to do given his career success and humble beginnings.
Christian added: “It’s just one of those great moments and it felt really beautiful, and I always wanted to buy her a house my whole life cause, it’s just what you do when your son is successful, I guess?”
Joye Siriano’s new and fabulous era
During Easter weekend, Christian posted a moving video of his mother enjoying a cocktail on the front porch of her new home in Richmond, Virginia.
The esteemed fashion designer panned across the luxurious and elegant home, while narrating for his viewers: “I bought my mom this house, which is one of my greatest accomplishments because I used to live in a closet.”

The creative adorably introduces her in the video and shares: “It’s Easter weekend, and this is how she’s sitting with her mimosa. So fabulous.”
Christian’s mother happily lifts her glass to toast to the camera, and she glamorously explains that she “just [got] back from a Caribbean cruise, and now [she’s] enjoying Easter with [her] family.”
Joye proceeds to once again make a toast to the camera and expresses: “Love to everybody.”
