@grandeurgek: Fresh Prince Stars Reunite for a Tearful Tribute to Their TV Dad James Avery Tatyana Ali and Alfonso Ribeiro just shared an incredibly emotional moment on the "Dancing with the Stars" ballroom floor. For the show's Dedication Night, Ali decided to honor her late "Fresh Prince of Bel-Air" costar, James Avery. Avery, known to millions as the beloved Uncle Phil, d*ed in December 2013 at the age of 68 following complications from open-heart surgery. To pay tribute to the man she called a father figure, Ali performed a Viennese waltz to a song by one of Avery's favorite jazz artists. She even recorded her own vocals for the deeply personal routine. But midway through the dance, the audience was completely surprised when co-host Alfonso Ribeiro stepped onto the floor to join his former TV sister. Ali later explained that the performance simply wouldn't have been right without him, as Avery was a mentor who heavily influenced both of their lives. When the music stopped, a large photo of Avery appeared above the stage, leaving both actors looking up in tears. Following the beautiful dance, Ali sent her love to Avery's wife and family, stating that she wouldn't be the woman or performer she is today without his lifelong guidance. What is your favorite memory of James Avery playing Uncle Phil? #FreshPrince #JamesAvery #DWTS #TatyanaAli #AlfonsoRibeiro
