Reports are starting to roll in that Kelly Rowland's mom died. According to Media Take Out, Doris Rowland Garrison passed on Tuesday (Dec. 2) after a long battle with an unspecified illness. Vibe magazine confirmed the news and journalist Foti Kallergis tweeted his condolences to the singer.

So far, the 33-year-old has not mentioned her mother's death on social media and MTO claims that Beyoncé cancelled her vacation early to be with Rowland. Unfortunately, the death comes weeks after the former Destiny's Child member gave birth to her son Titan Jewell Witherspoon.

Rowland and her new husband Tim Witherspoon welcomed their first child on Nov. 4. The "Motivation" singer is known to keep her private life out of the spotlight, but back in 2008 she shared a touching message on Mother's Day for her mom and Beyoncé's mom Tina Knowles, whom she considers a second mother.  

Dear Momma and Mama T, 

God must have thought I was really special to give me two mothers. 

Momma, I remember when you'd clap your hands and listen as I sang along every week to the theme song for the show Amen. You'd look at me like I was the sun and the moon and say, "Sing up, baby...a little louder." It meant so much that you believed in me. When we had rough times in Houston, you did your best to balance our family with your job as a live-in nanny. And I know it was difficult for you to run me back and forth for rehearsals after I joined Destiny's Child. I spent a lot of nights at the Knowleses' house. Soon a month turned into a year, then years. You came by every day, though, and cooked dinner, and we'd all eat as a family. It was because of your strength and sacrifice that I was able to dream so big. 

And Mama T, you took extra time to rehearse with me when I got my first lead song at 12. My voice was so small then, and you'd tell me to "sing up," just the way my momma did. When we lost our first record deal, you didn't let us get lazy; you encouraged us. You've taught me so much about following my gut, honoring my boundaries, and keeping an eye out for red flags in my relationships. It doesn't matter if the question is business or personal, I know you'll always have the answer. Your spirit is so sweet, and your wisdom is endless. 

I love you both so much. You're my heroes, my best friends. I can't thank you enough for grooming me into the woman I am today. Now I want you both to be comfortable and happy and never want for anything-and I can't wait to give you some grandkids! 

Love, 
Kelly

UPDATE: Rowland released a statement confirming her mother passed after going into cardiac arrest on Monday.

She was an incredible soul who made countless sacrifices so that I could become the woman - and now mother - I am today.
