B2K singer Raz-B and his wife, Mona Li, are mourning the unexpected death of their 3-month-old son, Astro Monte Thornton. Astro died earlier this week, according to sources close to the family who spoke with TMZ. His cause of death has not been disclosed.
The couple welcomed Astro into their family in May. Raz-B announced his impending arrival on Instagram on May 18. Days later, the family celebrated his birth, sharing that Astro had become the newest addition to the Thornton family. According to TMZ, Astro’s death was sudden and unexpected. The publication reported that the cause of death remains unclear.
Raz-B and Mona Li also share a son, Versai Carter. The B2K singer had recently shared family moments that included Astro. In a Father’s Day post, Raz-B appeared holding his infant son while celebrating fatherhood and his family. The news was first reported by The Shade Room. The family has asked for privacy as they grieve the loss of their infant son.
Astro’s death comes only about three months after his arrival, making the loss particularly recent for the Thornton family.

The family has not identified a cause of death.
