Slash was spotted with his father and sons as they marched in memory of his late stepdaughter Lucy-Bleu.
Slash, the lead guitarist of Guns N’ Roses, lost his step-daughter, Lucy-Bleu Knight earlier this year. The 58-year-old rock artist, whose real name is Saul Hudson, revealed the news of her death in a social media post.
The British-American musician announced in a statement shared on Instagram that his Lucy-Bleu died “peacefully.” She was 25 at the time. Lucy-Bleu was the daughter of Slash’s longtime partner, Meegan Hodges and her ex, Mark Knight.
“Lucy-Bleu Knight (December 6, 1998), beloved daughter of Meegan Hodges and Mark Knight, stepdaughter of Samantha Somers Knight and Slash, sister of Scarlet Knight, stepsister of London and Cash Hudson, passed away peacefully in Los Angeles, California, on July 19, 2024,” the statement reads.
Slash went on to call her “an incredibly talented artist, a passionate dreamer, and a charming, lovable, sweet soul.” “The family asks for privacy at this time and requests that social media speculation be kept to a minimum as they grieve and process this devastating loss,” the statement concluded.
In the wake of Lucy-Bleu’s death, Slash had also cancelled multiple shows of his solo S.E.R.P.E.N.T tour. The November Rain hitmaker announced that his shows slated for July 22th, 24th, 25th, and 27th were cancelled due to “unforeseen circumstances.” Slash further expressed his regrets to the fans and shared that the tour would resume in Toronto on July 28.
Fans had expressed their deepest condolences for his loss, something didn’t sit right with them. Following Slash’s statement about Lucy-Bleu’s death, a bizarre post was shared on her Instagram account. Although it was a harmless selfie, what struck the netizens as odd was the timing of the post and its cryptic caption.
