Who was Tristan Thompson’s mother Andrea?
Tristan Thompson was born on March 13, 1991, to Trevor and Andrea Thompson.
Trevor worked as a truck driver while Andrea drove a school bus, according to Heavy.
His parents often stay out of the spotlight, but over the years, Tristan has expressed his love for his mother several times.
In 2016, Tristan opened up about their relationship, revealing that he talked to his mom daily.
“Even though I don’t live at home and I’m four hours away from home, I talk to my mom every day – ask how the kids are doing, ask how she’s doing, too,” he explained, via NBA.com.
“Everyone knows that my mom, she’s very dedicated in taking care of her sons – especially Amari. But at the same time, you need to make sure that she’s ok.
“It’s asking a lot for one parent to do, so I always try to make sure that she’s doing well, too. Whether she’s getting a massage or just get out of the house and have a babysitter watch for a couple hours, that’s crucial.”
Tragically, it was announced that she had passed away in January 2023 after suffering a heart attack at home, according to TMZ.
