B2K Star Raz B and Wife Share Devastating Family News

The family says Astro Monte Thornton died unexpectedly earlier this week and has asked for privacy as the cause remains unclear.

  • On Thursday, Sept. 10, Thornton family publicist David Robinson confirmed the death of Astro Monte Thornton, the 3-month-old son of R&B singer Raz-B and his wife, Mona Li Thornton.
  • Sources told TMZ that Astro died earlier this week in an unexpected event, just three months after the couple welcomed him into their family.
  • "It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Astro Monte Thornton," the spokesperson said, as the family requested privacy during this difficult time.
  • Raz-B and Mona Li also share a son named Versai Carter Thornton; the B2K singer had recently shared social media posts documenting joyful family moments with Astro.
  • The family has not identified a cause of death for the infant, and for families experiencing such loss, grief often accompanies unanswered questions when circumstances remain publicly unestablished.
