The film star shared the news in an Instagram post on Monday, revealing her mother died on the eve of the party held to celebrate her 55th birthday.
Faithia explained that while she celebrated her birthday on Sunday, she was unaware of the loss.
She disclosed that the news of her mother’s passing was kept from her until after the festivities.
In her tribute, Faithia described her mother as her “cheerleader, prayer warrior, best friend, and gist partner,” calling her “an invaluable gift of a mother”.
“Dear friends, it was my 55th birthday on Thursday, February 5. However, I chose to have a party yesterday, Sunday,” she wrote.
“Unbeknownst to me, my beloved mother died on the eve of my party, and the news was cruelly kept away from me.
“The reality of her passing has not totally dawned on me because she was my cheerleader, prayer warrior, best friend, and gist partner wrapped in the invaluable gift of a mother.”
While she did not disclose the cause of death, Faithia and her family requested privacy during “this period of mourning”.
She added that details regarding the burial ceremony will be announced later.
“Whilst I have taken solace in Allah (SWT), the Williams’ family has decided to keep things very private for now,” she wrote.
“Your love and prayers will mean a lot to me and my siblings this period. Burial details will be announced later.”
The loss comes less than two years after the actress announced the death of her father in April 2024.
