Bruno Mars Mother Dies Of Brain Aneurysm At 55

Bruno Mars' mother, Bernadette Hernandez, is said to have died of a brain aneurysm.

A publicist  for Mars' label Atlantic Records revealed to the Associated Press on the condition of anonymity that the mother-of-six, 55, passed away on Saturday.

Mrs Hernandez's death came after it was initially reported she had suffered a suspected heart attack in Hawaii on Friday and was being treated at the Queens Medical Center in Honolulu.

The Philippines-born matriarch is survived by her Grammy-winning son, his brother Eric and their four sisters Presley, Tahiti, Tiara and Jamie.



She was divorced from Bruno's father Peter Hernandez, who was of Puerto Rican and Jewish descent.

All of the Bruno's siblings usually active Twitter accounts have noticeably kept silent since Friday.





Bruno and his brother Eric, who is the drummer in his band, were spotted in Los Angeles on Friday after flying in from Berlin.

It has to be noted that Bernadette's condition was first reported by Star magazine, who claimed the 55-year-old was rushed to the hospital near her home in Honolulu and was in critical condition.

"Bernadette is in hospital and the grandkids are all here, I'm looking after them," family friend Anita Sojot told the mag, adding: "The family is on it's way here right now and we are going to discuss what to do next."
