The NBA star’s mother, Andrea, passed away suddenly on January 6 from a heart attack.
She was laid to rest following an intimate service in Toronto, Canada
Tristan struggled to keep it together as he accompanied his mother’s casket to her final resting place.
The 31-year-old wore a black shirt and black jacket as he mourned.
His ex, Khloe, looked sad as she kept her head down at the ceremony.
She also wore a conservative and traditional black outfit for mourning.
A pair of dark sunglasses hid her eyes, and emotions, from others.
FLYING HOME
Andrea reportedly suffered a heart attack at home on and was rushed to the hospital, where she passed.
Tristan jetted to his home country as soon as possible with Khloe, 38, by his side.
The Good American founder was reportedly very close with her children’s grandmother.
Sister Kim, 42, and momager Kris, 67, joined them later.
Photos captured Kim and Khloe touching down in Toronto last week on the Skim mogul’s $150million private jet.
Kim previously lent Khloe her ride when she and Tristan paid a hurried visit to a hospital to see his mother.
FAMILY MATTERS
Andrea, who worked as a school bus driver, was a grandmother to Khloe and Tristan’s two kids – True, four, and a five-month-old son, whose name is unknown.
Although she remained in his native Canada while Tristan pursued his career in the NBA, the power forward appears to have stayed very close with his mother over the years.
He frequently shared photos of himself with her to his 3.7million Instagram followers.
In a Mother’s Day post in 2019, he gushed: “I’m so blessed to have a mother that loves me the way you do and willing to sacrifice everything for her kids.”
SAYING GOODBYE
Among the notable faces gathered to say goodbye was rapper Drake.
As for his ex, there was never any doubt if she would attend.
“Khloe, as with any of the family in these situations, will be supportive to Tristan and by his side during this very difficult time as he is the father of her two children,” a source previously told The U.S. Sun.
The Chicago Bulls alum also has two other sons: six-year-old Prince, whom he shares with his ex-Jordan Craig, and one-year-old Theo, whom he shares with Maralee Nichols.
However, Tristan has never met Theo.
