Raz-B is dealing with an unexpected loss. The singer has announced that his son, Astro Monte Thornton, has passed away at 3 months.
According to reports, a source close to the singer and his wife, Mona Li, revealed that their son passed away earlier this week and that the death was unexpected. No details of Astro’s death have been released. The couple also have a daughter, Versai Carter Thornton.
A spokesperson for the family said in a statement, “It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Astro Monte Thornton, beloved son of Mona and De’Mario ‘Raz B’ Thornton of the R&B supergroup B2K. The family asks for privacy as they navigate this difficult time. They truly appreciate your love and support.”
Back in June, Raz-B shared photos of him spending time with his family as well as sharing footage of Astro’s birth. “Living in the moment, so this is a day late. We thank you for all you do!” the caption read. “Thank you for your love, commitment, and generosity for us and those you care for. Thank you for protecting us, being our safest place and our forever hero!”
Our thoughts and prayers are with Raz-B and his family during this time.
