Who Is Adrian Peterson’s Son’s Mother? — Identity Revealed

Ann took to Facebook early in the morning on Oct. 11 to post a picture of her beloved son as a newborn. Dozens of friends liked and commented on the picture, sending their thoughts and prayers to Ann as her son remained on life support, in critical condition, at a Sioux Falls, South Dakota hospital. Tragically, the toddler, whom several Facebook users referred to as “Ty,” passed away later that day.

Ann was a wonderful mother, who showered her son with love and affection, sources tell EveryJoe.com. Her reported boyfriend, Joseph Robert Patterson, 27, was arrested in connection with the boy’s death on two counts: aggravated battery of an infant and aggravated assault. He was formally charged in his first court appearance on Oct. 11.

The toddler had been in critical condition and on life support since around 5:30 p.m on Oct. 10, and the family made the heartbreaking decision to take him off of life support on Oct. 11, according to TMZ.

“The mother of the child has decided to donate the child’s organs to people in need,” TMZ reported.
