Soon after news of her death was made public, Traci Braxton’s son, Kevin Durratt Jr. took to Instagram to pay tribute to his mother. “When I heard the news about my mother being sick first thing she said was I’m going to fight and beat this. She fought to the end and today she’s at peace,” Durratt Jr. wrote. “I love my mother forever and this hurts so much but I’m at peace knowing she’s isn’t in pain anymore. I love you ma I’m going to miss you.”
“This is just so heartbreaking… rest in peace, Traci Braxton, and deepest condolences to this incredible family, who have given us all so much joy through their musical artistry, and the love and sometimes raw realness of their sisterhood that they feel like OUR family, too,” MSNBC correspondent and journalist Joy-Ann Reid tweeted. Even the network that aired “Braxton Family Values” took to Twitter to share its “heartfelt condolences to the entire Braxton family.” WE tv wrote, “Traci Braxton has been in the lives of TV viewers for years and will always be part of the WE tv family. Gone far too soon… Her light and spirit live on.”
According to Entertainment Weekly, Traci is survived by her husband, Kevin Durratt Sr., her son, Durratt Jr., her siblings, and her mother.
