Tyrese Gibson’s mother, Priscilla Murray Gibson, died in the hospital last week after battling COVID-19 and pneumonia.

“On behalf of my family and everyone who ever spent anytime praying for my mother, this is the saddest moment of my life,” Gibson posted on Instagram Monday. “My sweet Valentine just passed away…..
