Alaska bride surprised by her late son's heart recipient

When Becky Turney's fiance, Kelly, halted their wedding for a very special gift, she was left speechless.

Her late son, Triston, was not physically present at the Alaska ceremony on Friday, but his heart was.

Triston died unexpectedly in 2015, aged 19.

Her groom had organised the surprise, giving Becky the chance to meet Jacob Kilby, the young man carrying her son's heart, for the very first time.
