If you watch ‘The Steve Harvey Show’, you know the funnyman wears his heart on his sleeve. A few months ago, Steve was surprised by the show producers with a special phone call that ended with him crying like a baby.

On the upcoming May 6 episode, the waterworks return as Steve gets serious as he tries his best to honor his late mother who died 16 years ago.

“You know, when they asked for me to do this, I said I’d take a shot at it,” Harvey says in a preview clip. “It’s a difficult thing for me.”

“OK. I can only hope that in everything that she’s taught me — somehow she’s somewhere watching me — I hope that I’ve made her proud of the man that I’ve turned out to be,” Harvey says.

Steve becomes overcome with emotion, and then walks off stage.
