A very special experience as a family yesterday. Got to walk through the Vatican Museum by ourselves. Amazing. My mum had walked these corridors with my father 20+ years ago with the thousands of tourist that flock here daily and make it the third most popular museum globally…

In a follow-up tweet, he said he had a “very special experience” as a family, explaining that they got to walk through the Vatican Museum by themselves.

We were given access to rooms, perspectives and parts of the collection you don’t get to see as a regular tourist.
As we squeezed into a tiny private elevator and ascended to a balcony few get to see, she squeezed my hand and said “ I wish your father was here”

He explained that, although his father had passed on, they were still privileged enough to be able to see rooms and parts of the collection that many regular visitors are not allowed to see.

Of all songs, of all times… how? I looked at my mum, she looked at me. My Fathers presence overwhelmed us both. She had a little cry and I kissed her on the head. He was with her.
If you’re lucky enough to have your parents around, look after them. Call, visit, show them love.

Even though his father had passed on, he and his mother were still available to feel his presence in a touching moment for them when they heard the tune of “Danny Boy,” one of the songs that had been playing at his funeral. He concluded his lengthy Twitter thread with a video showing the sweeping Italian landscape.
