Diana Ross’ family is full of incredible talents recognized by the world. This family was devastated when tragedy struck. We have many untold stories to tell about Ross’s loss.
Diana Ross, Motown records’ superstar and powerhouse, was also a huge star. She was also the most prominent person in her family. Arthur T-Boy (her singer/songwriter brother) was also in the limelight, but his time there was very limited.
In 1996, Patricia Robinson (54), the celebrity’s younger sister, was discovered dead alongside his new wife. The couple’s body parts had begun to decompose when the authorities discovered

DIANA ROSS’ REACTION
At the time, Diana was estranged from her brother. The victim was concerned about her sister’s achievements and believed that his popularity outweighed his success. She even introduced him to her record company as a songwriter.
This feeling harmed their relationship. Diana did not hide her grief, but she expressed it after his death. She added that it was devastating and shocking to hear about her brother’s family members dead on the same day.

Her brother’s death was painful, and the iconic singer admitted that she loved him dearly, despite their friction.
The Motown star was in Japan at the time; nonetheless, she penned down a soul-stirring message in a letter read by her daughter, Tracee Ellis Ross, which confirmed her love for the deceased.
