I am heartbroken to report singer and “Braxton Family Values” star Traci Braxton has passed away after a private battle with Esophageal cancer.

She was 50.

Her husband, Kevin Surratt, confirmed Traci’s passing saying:

We have come to a time where we must inform the public that after a year of privately undergoing a series of treatments for Esophageal cancer our beloved Traci Braxton has gone on to glory.

She was surrounded by her mother and sisters when she transitioned to her heavenly home.

Traci’s son, Kevin Jr., took to Instagram to share a heartbreaking tribute to his mother.

He wrote:

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. 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.

See Kevin Jr.’s original post below.

My sincerest condolences and prayers to the Braxton family during this extremely difficult time.
