Slash's Girlfriend Meegan Hodges Shares Tribute to Late Daughter Lucy-Bleu Knight amid Suicide Prevention Month
Lucy-Bleu Knight died by suicide at age 25 on July 19, the Los Angeles Medical Examiner's Office confirmed last week
The late Lucy-Bleu Knight's mom, Slash's girlfriend Meegan Hodges, is paying tribute to her daughter during National Suicide Prevention Month.
After Knight died by suicide at age 25 on July 19, Hodges posted to Instagram on Sept. 2 to memorialize her daughter and share materials to help anyone else struggling with mental health issues.
Hodges, 55, shared photos of Lucy-Bleu a series throughout her life to the social media platform alongside information for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and a caption featuring the hashtags, "#suicideawarness #bekind #988 #restinpeacemybeautifuldaughter."
The post arrived after Hodges shared a photo to Instagram on Aug. 24 of what appears to be a card distributed at Knight's memorial service. "The outpouring of love and support we have received from you has been a source of strength in our time of grief," read the note.
"Your thoughtful words have reminded us of the impact Lucy-Bleu made and brought some comfort in our loss," the card continued. "We extend our most sincere thanks to you for your kindness and sympathy."
Hodges added of her late daughter in the post's caption at the time, "She will forever be missed but never forgotten. It's impossible to forget Lucy-Bleu with all the light and energy she had on this planet. I love you my baby girl."
According to a press release shared last week by the Los Angeles Medical Examiner's Office, Knight died by suicide, specifically of "hydrogen sulphide toxicity.”
Per the Center for Disease Control, "inhalation of high concentrations" of the "highly toxic, colorless gas" can cause "rapid unconsciousness and death."
Slash, 59, revealed via Instagram on July 21 that Knight died "peacefully" two days earlier and called her an "incredibly talented artist, a passionate dreamer and a charming, lovable, sweet soul.”

On the social media platform, the Guns N’ Roses guitarist asked "for privacy" and that "social media speculation be kept to a minimum as they grieve and process this devastating loss.”
Per Slash's Instagram post, Knight, born Dec. 6, 1998, was the “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."
The iconic guitar player, whose birth name is Saul Hudson, initially began dating Knight's mother, Meegan Hodges, in 1989. However, the pair split until they rekindled their romance more than two decades later in 2015.
