Devastated by this heart-wrenching loss, Slash, appropriately named Saul Hudson, had no choice but to put his ongoing tour on hold. More pertinent details about Lucy-Bleu's demise have surfaced, with a recent report from the British "Mirror" on August 29th providing some valuable insights.
The Los Angeles County Coroner's office declared Lucy-Bleu's unfortunate passing as a suicide. The authorities discovered her unconscious at a private residence during a routine welfare check on July 19th, and she was pronounced dead at 3 PM local time.

In an emotional Instagram post dated July 22nd, Slash revealed the premature death of his dear stepdaughter. He celebrated her outstanding artistic talent, budding dreams, and charismatic, lovable spirit. Begging for privacy from his family, Slash requested social media users to refrain from unwarranted speculation.
A few days later, Slash shared another poignant message, this time featuring a selfie of Lucy-Bleu and the moving caption, "My heart is shattered forever. I will never cease missing you and cherishing every moment of the joy, creativity, and radiance you brought into our lives. You were the beacon of hope and warmth for countless individuals who cherished you dearly." He sought comfort in the belief that she was now at peace in the afterlife. "I will love you eternally."
A heartfelt goodbye note...
Lucy-Bleu Knight's Instagram account hinted at her passionate involvement in painting and tattoo artistry. Three days following her passing, she scheduled a poignant farewell message, laden with raw emotion and apologies, expressing regret for any hurt she may have caused others through her insecurities and arrogance.
