Final Instagram Post Of Slash's Stepdaughter Publishes Hours After Her Death Announcement

Hours after Guns N' Roses guitarist Slash announced the death of his stepdaughter Lucy-Bleu Knight, a final Instagram post from her has surfaced.

The post is believed to have been scheduled, which may be why it appeared on her page at the time it did.

Lucy-Bleu Knight poured her heart out in the message, concluding with a reflection about her soul learning to "evolve" from her "poor job at being" herself.

A heartbreaking post from Knight appeared on Instagram three hours after her stepfather announced that she had passed away peacefully.

The 25-year-old shared a selfie of herself looking away from the camera while holding her phone with her left hand.

Although the picture looked normal, Knight's caption told a different story. It hinted at her emotional struggles and included an apology that appeared to be directed toward those she cared about

She wrote, "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.

The artist also seemed to blame herself for some things that might have gone wrong around her.

She said, "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."

Over a thousand comments have already flooded in since the post appeared. Topping the list was Knight's mother, Meegan Hodges, who wrote a message that showed how much her daughter's death hurt her.

She wrote, "MY BABY GIRL! I LOVE YOU WITH EVERYTHING. I'M SO SORRY."

Fans also expressed sadness over Knight's passing and highlighted her many good deeds.

One Instagram user remarked, "Lucy… you taught me to let people in and not to be scared of doing so… rest in peace, you beautiful soul. So many people love you. You were a light to so many."

Another person wrote, "You made me feel nothing other than loved and inspired. Sharing a studio with you was fate. You came into my life at the perfect time. You were an amazing friend, and I'm so grateful I could be kind to you."

A third individual commented, "Lucy, you were so Beautiful and talented. You did the most beautiful portrait of George Floyd. My friends loved it. Your art gave me peace in a tumultuous time. Driving home in those riots in Chicago was so scary. Please give your friends and family a sign that you are ok in heaven."

Slash revealed the death of his daughter in an emotional piece he wrote on his Instagram page.

The acclaimed guitarist heaped praises on the 25-year-old, saying she "was an incredibly talented artist, a passionate dreamer, and a charming, lovable, sweet soul."

He also mentioned that she "passed away peacefully" and requested that the media and fans respect the family's privacy, allowing them to grieve the loss of the young woman.

Slash remarked, "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."

Knight was a skilled tattoo artist who often shared her work on her social media pages.
