He called it a "just because" gift.

Fast & Furious star Tyrese Gibson has been quite the controversial figure on social media in the few years. He was made into a meme after he released a video of himself crying and there have been a few statements that have rubbed fans the wrong way. However, through it all, the actor-singer has leaned on the support of his loved ones, especially his wife, Samantha Lee Gibson.

The lovebirds tied the knot back in 2017 and have, thus far, kept their relationship out of negative headlines. Just under an hour ago, Tyrese shared images and video clips of himself surprising his wife with a brand new ride. In the clip, Samantha inspects the bow-topped vehicle before asking her husband, "Why would you do this?" There is a brief pause as he thinks over his answer before he simply states, "You're loyal." The two hug as she cries and thanks him.

"It wasn’t easy getting through the last year 1/2 and YOU STAYED LOYAL and loved me through it ALL," Tyrese wrote in the caption. "Because you deserve the whole world and everything that comes with it.... When I WIN you WIN!!!!!!!! Soraya needed a quick upgrade........ Love you SAMANTHA GIBSON WITH MY WHOLE HEART!!!!!! No specific occasion JUST BECAUSE!!!!!!"
