BET’s “Sistas” Star Ebony Obsidian was just hit with a major life changing event and we’re sending our love!
Ebony was not at this years BET Awards due to the passing of her mother.
She took to Instagram to share:
“The Queen, has ascended. To those who prayed when I asked, I thank you deeply. The last three years have been the most impactful of my entire life. And I knew the only way forward, the healthiest way, was to be 100% present through every single moment. And present I have been for the role of a lifetime. Daughter.
Mama. My Mama. My one and only. My favorite. My best friend. My secret keeper. My ROD. My biggest fan. My precious. To be loved as deeply and fiercely as you did me is a blessing not everyone gets to experience. Even now, in ways I did not know possible, I feel your warmth and protection. You were a lioness of the greatest caliber. A warrior in every aspect of the word. A survivor of one of the longest recorded civil wars. An immigrant in a land that did not want you to succeed three times over, being a woman, black, and “foreign.” You conquered every obstacle, skirted every word of malice, and blossomed like a rose through the thickest of concrete. And all by yourself with a baby on your hip.
You taught me the sheer power, of women. The audacity it takes to be your authentic self in a world where many don’t even know who they are. You brought me to God, Jah, three times a week, every week, to be exact. You made me, only to then allow me the freedom to make myself over into who I wanted to be. You nourished me mind, body, and soul often at the expense of going into a deficit yourself.
There is nothing I would not give up, no place I would have preferred to be, then at your side through this most miraculous chapter of your life. It has been the honor of a lifetime to know you. It brings me an abundance of joy and peace to finally be able to share this most personal part of myself with everyone.
To the immigrant who had a hard time learning English but wanted to become an actress, who took her daughter along to clean houses and then went on to graduate deans list from a private college, supported said daughter through art school to then watch said daughter go on to work on Emmy and Oscar awarded/most watched projects. You did a damn good job. We salute you. I salute you. Rest. And with love and light, we STILL move onward TOGETHER 🕊️”
She recently shared a sweet Mother’s Day post as well:
We’re sending our condolences to Ebony and her family at this tough time.
