Wahlberg gifts mother car for Christmas

Actor Mark Wahlberg has gifted his mother Alma her favourite car as a Christmas gift.

The actor gifted the car to his mother just before the Boston premiere of his new movie Patriots Day, which is based on the terrible events of the Boston bombings.

“I looked out my front door today, and there was this brand new car sitting out there with the big red bow on it! Don’t laugh! He bought me a brand new Hyundai Azera, my favourite car in the world!,” Alma said.

Wahlberg said his mother was in love with the car and was asking him to buy it for a long time. “She was in love with this Hyundai. She kept asking me, and I kept saying no, and she told my sis that I was getting one anyway, so then I was like, ‘Alright, let’s just get it for her.’ 

“I wanted it to be a surprise. If you’re going to do it, you gotta do it right,” he said.
