Just when we thought we were sick of feel-good viral stories... this came along.

This is how to be a successful uncle.

Four-year-old Izzy wanted to see the new Cinderella movie. REALLY wanted to see it. She also REALLY wanted to get into character.

But Izzy was feeling a little too shy to don her princess gown in front of the whole cinema audience. That is, until her uncle, Jesse Nagy, 25, said he’d dress  right up with her.

Princesses.

“I really wanted to spend time with her, so I said ‘let’s go have a princess day,” said The Best Uncle Ever.

Read more: “My daughter wants to be a princess. And you know what? I’m okay with that.”

“She said, ‘You could be a princess too.’ We made the trade-off and I said, ‘OK, we can both be princesses,’ but she had to have the crown. I thought, fair enough!”

And that’s how tattooed Uncle Jesse came to dress as a cross between Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella.

If you’re wondering how he found a dress to fit…

“That actually was a prom dress from my brother-in-law’s sister. I borrowed it. I think prom was last weekend.”

The pair have gone viral.

Nagy has been genuinely shocked at the attention his idea has triggered. But how could it not with a smile THAT BIG on Izzy’s face?

“If it’s going to make her happy, I’ll do it, I don’t care,” said Jesse.

We salute you, Jesse.

Would you do this for you niece?
