The Tragic Death Of Shanna Moakler's Mom, Gail

Gay Moakler didn’t share her daughter’s interest in the limelight, but the two still shared a strong bond based on Shanna Moakler’s social media activity. On Mother’s Day 2022, the “Celebrity Big Brother” star penned a touching tribute to her mom, expressing her appreciation for her mother’s unwavering support over the years.

“#happymothersday @gailmoakler there will never be enough words to express how thankful I am to have you as my mom!” she wrote. “Thank you for always standing by me and supporting me through this crazy life. I love you so much! You truly are the most amazing mother.” She praised her mom in a similar post the previous year, gushing over how much she looked up to Gail. “@gailmoakler how lucky I am to have a mom like you! You’re my best friend and my idol! I love you so much!” Shanna mused.

Gail was a doting grandmother, too. When Shanna’s ex Travis Barker was involved in a horrific plane crash in 2008, she told People she’d look after the kids as Shanna rushed to his side. “Shanna flew out this morning, and I am going to L.A. to be with the children so that she can devote time to Travis,” she shared with the outlet at the time. “There’s still love between them.”
