Tyrese’s mother dies after battle with COVID-19, coma
Last week, Tyrese revealed that his mother was in a coma in the ICU, battling COVID-19 and pneumonia.
On Monday, he posted a video to Instagram, in which he held his mother’s hand as she lay in a hospital bed.
He captioned the post: “On behalf of my family and everyone who ever spent [any time] praying [for] my mother This is the saddest moment of my life………. My sweet Valentine just passed away.”
“May the lord Jesus Christ and his angels open the doors of heavens and embrace her………. We as a family are broken and just can’t believe this……. May the lord Jesus Christ honor your walk with him and embrace you into the heavens……. From here on I ask that you HOLD MY HAND MOTHER and never let my hand go………. Like you held my hand as a child and a teen never let my hand go mother,” he added.
Tyrese could be heard crying in the video and saying, “Rest in peace, Mom. You fought, Mom. You fought. Oh my God, I’m so sorry this happened, Mom. Jesus.”
He told his mom in the video, “I’m gonna hold your hand for the rest of my life, OK? Everywhere I go, I’m gonna hold your hand the way you held my hand when I was a kid. Every journey this life takes me to from here on, you’re gonna hold my hand, Mom, OK?”
