Connor Storrie took his mum Linda as his plus one to the Emmy Awards – and Heated Rivalry fans are losing their minds over the adorable moment.
The actor, who officially debuted his new buzzcut after being seen with it last month, wore a silky shirt with buttons undone down his chest, under a classic suit by Saint Laurent.
His mother Linda looked dazzling in a sparkly gold dress, with her hair styled in loose curls in a half-pulled-back look.
She smiled proudly as she stood by her son’s side, with Connor also looking more than happy to have his mum with him.

The moment quickly went viral online, with fans excited about Connor’s seriously sweet mum-and-son red carpet snaps.
One said: “OMG his mother is so beautiful,” as another added: “They’re literally twins OMG.”
Someone else said: “Stop they’re so cute.” A fourth wrote: “Love it! They look so good. I know his mom is sooo proud.”
Another commented: “Love this. Nothing like your mom who supports you all the way. Beautiful.”
