Tracy Morgan’s mother, Alicia Walden, says her son will not give her $25,000 to help avoid foreclosure proceedings on her Youngstown, Ohio, home.
Walden, 61, tells WKBN.com she called her famous comedian-actor son in January asking for $25,000 to pay off her mortgage, but his assistant called back to say, “Tracy would do a one shot deal of $2,000.”
“I still love my son. He’s my son. I always will love him. I worry about him,” said Alicia Warden. “I’m, you know, I’m doing the best I can. I don’t ask anybody for anything,” Warden said.”

“Alicia Warden bought her home on Youngstown’s South Side 13 years ago to be closer to family while fighting cancer. She survived that battle, but now she is facing a new obstacle, which is foreclosure.
Warden was laid off from work last year and fell behind on her mortgage payments. In desperation, she reached out to her estranged son, Tracy Morgan, for help.
“When he called, late that night, and I just told him that I am having a problem with my mortgage, can you help me and he told me to just hold on and he will get somebody,” Warden said.
Morgan’s accountant called saying they would offer her a one-shot deal of $2,000. Warden said she was hurt her son didn’t call himself.”
The $2,000 offer won’t help. She owes $25,000 total and foreclosure proceedings are set to begin Feb. 23.
“If the worst happens, then I am in the street. I’m not going to live with anybody. They have their own children and families. So, I go to the shelter,” Warden said.
