Whitney Purvis, known for her appearance on “16 and Pregnant,” is mourning the loss of her son, Weston. In a heartbreaking Instagram tribute, Whitney expressed her deep love and sorrow over the passing of her beloved son.
Sharing photos of her and Weston together, one from his infancy and another more recent, Whitney reminisced on the precious moments they shared. She held him close in both pictures, capturing the love and bond between a mother and her child.
In her caption, Whitney reflected on the memories she will forever cherish – from Weston’s favorite songs to his first day of school, from the first time she held him to the last time she hugged him. She expressed her love for him in words that cannot fully capture the depth of her emotions.
Whitney wrote, “I love you, Weston more than words could ever describe. Rest in peace, my beautiful boy.”
Weston was tragically found unresponsive in his bed on Monday morning, as shared by his stepmother, Amy Gosa, on Facebook. The family is awaiting autopsy results, with Gosa hinting at health issues Weston had been battling, including diabetes.
Whitney was pregnant with Weston during the first season of ’16 and Pregnant’ in 2009. Weston was just 16 years old at the time of his passing.
As the world mourns the loss of Weston, Whitney and her family are left to grieve the untimely departure of a beloved son, brother, and friend. RIP.
