She shared:

“It was a little bittersweet for me to be honest because last month I lost my brother, Blaize. He was battling colon cancer for about two years and he is in a better place now. He’s loved and missed, and the emotions that have been weaving in and out of my body and mind and my family have been a roller coaster.”

In the end, Raven-Symoné told fans she would focus more on Pearman on his birthday, which is on the weekend. However, the sweet sister buttressed her love for the deceased, adding, “I love you, Blaize.”

Despite mourning Pearman, Symoné remembered everyone who had been by her side. She tagged them as her “amazing support system.”
