He was 43.

Gabe Solis, formerly Trina Braxton's husband, lost the battle with cancer on Thursday (December. 20), TMZ reports. He was 43.

Solis died in his own ho

me in Texas, surrounded by friends and family, reports the outlet. Almost no official details about his death are not told.

Solis, as it is told, kept his own fight against cancer a secret. His death came as a shock to those closest to him. On Friday (Dec. 21), Braxton, likewise, mourned the loss of his own former spouse with a mysterious Instagram meme: “I need to be groped..E bottle of wine.”

The former couple tied the knot in 2003 and was seen together in past seasons of Braxton WEtv's home values. Oblivious to ending their own divorce in 2015, Braxton and Solis faced the lingering challenges of their own marriage during an episode of Iyanla: Fix My Life, earlier in the year.

Braxton since then has moved to a fresh relationship, but remained friends with Solis.
