'Friends' star Courtney Cox is a loving and empathetic person, feels her fiance Johny McDaid's mother.
Cox recently met McDaid's family on a recent trip to his hometown, reported Us magazine.
"We all love her," Pauline, the rocker's mother said about Cox, adding that she felt at home with the family.
The 50-year-old was extremely empathetic when it came to visiting the city's iconic Peace Bridge, McDaid's late father was instrumental in bringing to the northwest, just weeks before he lost his battle with cancer, Pauline said.
"Courteney was very anxious to see John's home and we took her around and showed her where John grew up. And she is a very empathetic person, so visiting the Peace Bridge was a big thing for her.
"We also went up to the grave, and that was quite, well, as you can imagine... John is obviously upset that his daddy isn't going to meet her," the retired art teacher said.
The trip also marked the rocker's 38th birthday celebration. Aside from being feted by close family and friends, Pauline said singer Ed Sheeran also surprised McDaid.
Pauline said she is extremely happy with Cox and cannot wait them to get married.
"They are head over heels in love, and it is lovely to see how happy they are together," she said.
McDaid popped the question to the 'Cougar Town' actress on her 50th birthday in June.
The couple, who first stepped out together in December 2013, announced their engagement simultaneously on Twitter on June 26. Cox was previously married to David Arquette for nearly 14 years.
