Looking completely shocked, Susan said: "It means the world, thank you so much. My kids will be thrilled.
"I have my daughter with me tonight, she's here to look after her mammy and she will be delighted."
With tears in her eyes, the choked up singer added: "That's all I can say, sorry I'm emotional now. Really, thank you so much."
The chart-topping artist laughed: "My wee grandson tells everybody he's famous, because he has a famous granny, so he likes to tell everybody he's famous too."
Fellow country companions, Philomena and Margo also paid a lovely tribute to Susan.
Philomena exclaimed: "I'm so proud of you Susan, we go back a long way almost 50 years."
