Master P’s 32-year-old son, rapper Romeo Miller, also shared an Instagram post mourning his sister’s death. “We appreciate all the prayers, love and support, and although this is sad times, I’m forever grateful for the memories I did have with my amazing sister,” Romeo wrote on Sunday. “Love on your loved ones, life is short. The silver lining, I know she’s in a way better place and finally at peace and free. God Bless.”
Fans flooded the comments section of both Instagram posts with condolences and well wishes. “Sorry to read this man. We’ll give you all the privacy and prayers you need. God is with you and the family. May he watch over you all in Jesus Name,” one Instagram user wrote. “God bless y’all with comfort and peace,” someone else wrote.
