Knight died at a private house and there will be an autopsy scheduled. She was the child of Meegan Hodges, Slash’s longtime companion. The couple started dating in 1989, and after a breakup, they resumed their relationship in 2015.

Lucy-Bleu scheduled a very sad last Instagram post. The post appeared on her profile a few hours after Slash shared the news of his step-daughter’s death.

“Whether I made you feel excluded, manipulated/controlled you, told you to quit your day job from the comfort of being financially supported by my parents, or drowned real issues in toxic positivity – I am sorry,” Lucy-Bleu wrote.

“Countless missed opportunities and connections due to a disgustingly big ego, insecure heart and fear of being vulnerable. May my soul learn to evolve from my poor job at being Lucy-Bleu. Peace .”

After Slash announced Lucy-Bleu’s death, he canceled four upcoming concert dates of his solo tour. He is planning to be back on the S.E.R.P.E.N.T tour again on July 28.
