In a heartwarming moment ahead of his debut on Saturday Night Live, Dan Levy’s mother, Susan Collins, took to social media to address those who bullied her son during his youth. Dan, known for his work on the hit series Schitt’s Creek, hosted SNL almost 35 years after his father did. However, it was Susan’s poignant message that truly resonated with fans before Dan took the stage.
Just hours before the show, Susan shared a tweet directed at the kids who made Dan’s life difficult back in the summer of ’96 because of his uniqueness. “To the bullies from Camp Awful who made a certain cabin-mate’s life miserable: I have just seven words for you: ‘Live from New York, it’s Saturday Night!’ @danjlevy,” she tweeted, complete with a heart emoji.
Dan’s response was simply, “Moms,” capturing his appreciation for her unwavering support. Over the past year, Susan has shown her pride in Dan’s achievements, even celebrating the nominations for Schitt’s Creek at the Golden Globes just days prior to his SNL stint. “I can feel my parents dancing somewhere this morning,” she tweeted.
In a previous viral tweet, Susan reflected on her worries for Dan during his childhood, stating, “I regret every single second of worry back in the uninformed 80’s about how the world would treat my brilliant little boy.” She praised him for overcoming challenges and paving the way for a new narrative.
During an interview with late-night host James Corden, Dan expressed the emotional impact of his mom’s supportive words, highlighting their significance not only for him but for many others facing similar struggles. “For her to champion me publicly is lovely and beautifully written,” he noted.
The Levy family continues to inspire many with their positive messages and love for one another. We hope to see more of them in the years to come.
