In a statement to the press delivered Monday night (March 14), the singer’s management team said:

“Sadly, it’s true that Mike Mora has passed away. We would ask all to respect Kelis and her family’s privacy as of right now. Thank you,” revealed Steve Satterhwaite, of Red Light Management.

The news comes five months after Mora, 37, took to Instagram to reveal his struggle with the disease – reporting at that time that a doctor had given him 18 months to live.  The diagnosis encouraged him to be a beacon of inspiration for others going through similar trials.

“I am posting this, after so much thought. not because I want people to feel bad or sorry for me and my family. I am posting this because life is full of the most unexpected situations,” he wrote in a separate post. “I never thought this could happen to me. At just 36, with 3 kiddos, and a wife that loves me. I want to be able to help those that might experience something, maybe, hopefully. By showing that it’s possible to make it through.”

Continuing, he shared:

“I want to be able to help those that might be experiencing something like this- a life altering disease full of questions and doubt- maybe, hopefully. By showing that it’s possible to make it through,” he relayed. “You always see people post about how life is too short. How you should reach out to those you love no matter where life has taken you. It is the truth. Don’t take your time here, your time with friends, family, for granted. S**t can be over just like that!”

As of time reported, Kelis has not issued a statement.
Celebrity friends of Mora, including Evan Ross, took to social media in droves Monday to offer their condolences.

“We lost a brother Yesterday. We will truly miss you Mike. Thinking of some of the great times we all spent together,” he said before adding, “Hearing about your children and the life you and your wife have built. Im sending all the prayers and love to your family brother. @kelis ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️RIP @mikemorafotos.”

Kelis and Mora share a one-year-old daughter who they welcomed in Sept. 2020 and a 6-year-old son.
