"Feeling obliterated": FaZe Banks' emotional statement announcing his mother's death

FaZe Banks shared a statement about the death of his mother on social media. The popular esports personality wrote:

"Rest in Peace Mom, I’ll love you beyond my own human life."

The FaZe Clan CEO, who is currently worth $13 million, opened up about losing both of his parents. He noted that his father died two years ago at a critical juncture and revealed how he turned his life around after his death:

"I lost my Dad two years ago at a very delicate time in my life. I was a mess. I was lonely, drug addicted, lost, sad. This could've easily killed me. I did everything in my power to be a better human after that. I got sober, I introduced regular therapy into my life, I started eating healthier, focused more on healthy relationships and sought out more wholesome fulfillment. My thought process. In this time, I bought my company back and everything in my life got a lot better.

"I've coped with the loss of my dad by chalking it up to his and Gods plan to set me and brother on a more righteous, healthy path so that we can live a happy, long, healthy life and take care of our Mother. Everything I hoped to do for him, at least I could focus that on his person, the love of his life, he could live the dream life I had planned for them through her."

FaZe Banks then shared how difficult it has been to adjust and described feeling "obliterated" by his mother's death:

"I'm struggling to understand what the f**k gods point in this is. Why this is happening and how the f**k I'm supposed to keep it together right now. Feeling obliterated. I have to tell myself there's a reason for all this. It's really, really hard to see how this is fair or makes sense."

He concluded his message by urging his followers to be open with their families:

"Please tell your families you love them while you still can. I'm sorry for anyone hurting right now, anyone that's ever experienced loss. I love you all. I'm sorry."

FaZe Banks recently made headlines after a Talk Tuah episode was leaked online, in which the FaZe Clan CEO was set to give advice to Hawk Tuah girl Haliey Welch about her cryptocurrency debacle.
