Gone too soon. Mike Mora, the husband of singer Kelis, has died after battling stage IV stomach cancer. He was 37.
A rep for the New York native, 42, confirmed the news to Entertainment Tonight on Monday, March 14. “Sadly, it’s true that Mike Mora has passed away. We would ask all to respect Kelis and her family’s privacy as of right now. Thank you,” the statement read.
Mora and the “Bossy” performer tied the knot in 2014. They went on to welcome son Shepard and a daughter, whose name has not been revealed, in November 2015 and September 2020, respectively. Kelis is also the mother of son Knight, 12, with ex-husband Nas.
The late photographer opened up about his health battle via Instagram in September 2021, revealing that he began experiencing symptoms one year prior. Mora described feeling the “worst pain” in his stomach, which he initially believed was an ulcer.
“[I had] loss of appetite. Pain in my back also started to creep in,” he wrote at the time, noting that he “finally decided to do something about it” and was diagnosed with advanced stomach cancer. “[I had] no idea what was about to come my way. Here I was, in a hospital bed, during the middle of the [coronavirus] pandemic. All alone.”
In a separate post, Mora reflected on using his platform to inspire others to stay strong through the “most unexpected situations.” He continued, “I never thought this could happen to me. At just 36, with 3 kiddos, and a wife that loves me. I want to be able to help those that might be experiencing something like this — a life altering disease full of questions and doubt- maybe, hopefully. By showing that it’s possible to make it through.”
Mora added: “You always see people post about how life is too short. How you should reach out to
