Sadly, Tristan Thompson‘s mother, Andrea, suddenly passed away on Thursday, Jan. 5, after suffering from a heart attack.
The Kardashian-Jenner family has since poured out their unconditional love for the Thompson family by being by their side every step of the way. Notably, Khloe Kardashian, the ex-girlfriend of Tristan Thompson and mother of two of the NBA athlete’s children, took a trip to Toronto, Canada, to show support during this hard time.

As for the remaining Kardashian-Jenner family members, unfortunately, they weren’t able to visit Canada so soon. However, it’s safe to say that Jenner spoke for every family member when she took to her Instagram to send her condolences, letting the world know how much Andrea meant to their family.
