Andrea's passing was a complete shock to many, considering she was only 55 years old at the time and seemingly in good health before all of this. We do know that the two were very close, as Tyler has gushed about his mother in the past via Instagram both before and after her death.

Tyler's mother also supported him while he was on The Bachelorette, and she continued to watch the show until her death. In fact, her last Instagram post is of her and her dog watching The Bachelor during Peter Weber's season.

Andrea was a real estate agent in Jupiter, Fla. at The Keyes Company at the time of her passing, but she also prided herself on "being a blessed mom of three great men," according to her Instagram bio.

On Going Home With Tyler Cameron, each episode ends with the exciting reveal of a beautiful remodel. And during the season finale, Tyler takes on the house that his late mom left behind and transforms it into the family home that she always dreamed of.

Andrea and Tyler's dad, Jeff Cameron, divorced when Tyler was young. They're also parents to two additional sons, Austin and Ryan.

Tyler Cameron's dad has also faced health issues in the past.

Unfortunately for Tyler, this isn't the only scary moment he's ever had to deal with when it comes to his parents. Before he appeared on the ABC hit reality show, he nearly lost his father after he battled some serious health issues. Jeff now has a paralyzed vocal cord, but even though he was still healing and recovering from the near-death situation while Tyler was away filming, he's the one who encouraged his son to be on the show.

“Me and my dad would sit around and watch The Bachelorette and he kind of became a huge fan of you,” he revealed to Hannah on one of their first dates. "He was like ‘Tyler, this is your girl. You’ve gotta go make the most of this opportunity.'"
