Kelly Rowland breaks down talking about mother's death

Singer Kelly Rowland says her mother's death in 2014 had "torn her apart".

The 36-year-old star lost her mother, Doris, just three weeks after Rowland gave birth to her son Titan, whom she has with her husband Tim Witherspoon, reported Femalefirst.

"It was hard because I'd just watched my son come into this world and I actually watched her go. There's not a day that goes by I don't think of her. At first, it would just tear me apart, and day by day, it gets easier," Rowland says on "60 Minutes".

When asked what she last said to her mother, the songstress says, "That's a tough question. It's one of my greatest regrets. It's something I'll carry to my grave or eventually talk about, but I'm not ready now."

Kelly credits her son, now two, for helping her believe life is still "worth living".

"He's a happy kid, and that makes me feel like I'm doing a good job. And he just makes my life feel worth living.
