Tyler Cameron: Mom’s Death Motivated Me to ‘Take Care’ of My Brothers

Tyler announced via Twitter on February 27 that he had a “family emergency” involving his mom. Two days later, Us Weekly broke the news that Andrea died at the age of 55. Her cause of death was revealed to be a brain aneurysm.

“Tyler is utterly devastated and in shock. It doesn’t feel real,” a source told Us at the time. “His entire family is strong as hell but their world has been shattered.”

The model remembered the real estate agent as “a mom to so many” in her obituary in The Palm Beach Post in March, while Ryan shared some of the ways she went above and beyond for their community.

“My mom didn’t care who you were, where you came from, what you’ve done or anything at all. She saw everyone as the same,” the Florida Atlantic University football player said. “She just wanted to help everybody and help them out with whatever they needed help with.”

“She was super supportive,” he told the newspaper. “What was so amazing … she was supportive for [Bachelorette Hannah Brown] and everyone else who was a part of that show but she was also supportive to the random fans.”

Austin, for his part, launched a GoFundMe page in March to develop a charitable foundation in Andrea’s name. The campaign has since raised more than $15,000 of its $20,000 goal.
