The promotion offered him a professional contract which and let Brodie Lee Jr play a major role in the special episode which the promotion dedicated to the life of his late father.
His mother put out a heart-warming and emotional message for her son this weekend on his birthday. She mentioned in the Instagram post how he made her world a brighter and better place, and how lucky she is to have him in her life.
