Riley Green gave an adorable little girl named Hadley a night to remember on Saturday (April 12) ahead of his performance at The American Rodeo at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas. 

During the meet & greet, Green shared a special moment with Hadley, a sweet 2-year-old with Down syndrome. Her mom captured the heartwarming interaction on video—and it’s melting hearts everywhere.

The clip, which has already racked up nearly 900,000 views, shows little Hadley making her way over to Riley Green, who towers above her. With a big smile, she walks right up to the country star, and he kneels down to greet her and snap a few sweet photos.

Hadley’s mom, Autumn, recalled the memorable moment she first told her they’d be meeting Riley Green. 

“When I asked her if she wanted to go meet Riley Green, she laughed, smiled and put her hand over her mouth acting bashful,” she shared. 

The moment was certainly one they “won’t ever forget.” 

“When we met him, she started waving to him and smiling real big. It brought joy to me seeing how happy she was. Everyone loved her. This sweet gentleman even gave Hadley a Riley Green guitar pick,” Autumn revealed. “It was such a really special and neat experience.”

After their special meet & greet, Green shared photos with Hadley on Instagram and admitted she “stole the show.” 

Autumn tells us that Green’s song “I Wish Grandpas Never Died” is one that her family holds near and dear to their hearts. 

“It came out shortly after my husband’s grandpa died so that song has always been important to us and one of our favorites,” she explained. 

Meanwhile, Hadley enjoys Green’s latest single, “Worst Way,” but her mom says “she clearly doesn’t know what the lyrics mean, but every time she hears the tune she gets shy, smiles, and starts dancing to it.” 

Autumn regularly shares heartwarming glimpses of life with Hadley on TikTok, where their adorable at-home moments continue to brighten people’s days.

This video has drawn an outpouring of love and support for Hadley, making the moment even more meaningful.

“Since sharing the video on TikTok, everyone has been so supportive and excited for Hadley,” she tells us. “Of course one of the moments that stood out to us was Riley sharing the picture of him and Hadley on his Instagram. We feel very blessed to have been able to experience all of this.”

Autumn later opened up about Hadley’s story, sharing that she was born with Down syndrome and has a way of touching the hearts of everyone she meets.

“She’s the happiest little girl and one of the strongest as well. Despite the challenges, has overcome so much but does it with a bright, uplifting mindset. She is a true inspiration to my family and I,” she said with pride. “Hadley has been nothing but pure joy not to just us, but to anyone she’s around with her extra chromosome.”
