Fat Joe Mourns the Death of His Mom Less Than 3 Months After His Dad Died: ‘My World, My Heart, My Everything’
Fat Joe is grieving the loss of his mom, Marie. On Saturday, May 3, the “Lean Back” rapper, 54, announced in an Instagram post that his mother, Marie Del-Carmen Cartagena, has died. She was 77, according to TMZ.
“This a real one, rest in peace to the woman who brought me in this world,” the musician wrote in a lengthy message, sharing how close he was with his mother. “She didn’t have much but she gave us everything.”
“Anyone who knows my mom knows she had a heart of gold. She refused to move out the projects for many years even though I had money,” he continued. “She loved her community, she loved her people — Ms. Ruby the Terror Squad Queen.”
Marie’s death comes less than three months after the death of Fat Joe’s father, Ernesto, at age 89 in February. The couple were together for 60 years before his death, Fat Joe said.
“I have to give thanks to the father my God for letting me have her in my life this long,” Fat Joe continued. “Truth is she died of a broken heart. 60 years with a man and he recently just died, my dad wanted her with him.”
“To the Castro family, the Cartagena family, the Delgado family,” he continued in part, before addressing his mom directly. “I love you and thank you for the outpouring of love. Mommy, till I see you again. You were my world, my heart, my everything. I’ll continue to make you proud 🙏🏽❤️🕊️.”
The “What’s Luv” rapper also shared a series of photos of his mother, including shots of her posing with her son and his friends and family, as well as a photo of her as a young woman.
