Guns N' Roses lead guitarist Slash announced on social media this week that his 25-year-old stepdaughter has died. Lucy-Bleu Knight, the daughter of Slash's partner Meegan Hodges, died in Los Angeles on July 19, the musician said in a statement.
Slash did not provide any details about the cause of Knight's death, but remembered her as "an incredibly talented artist, a passionate dreamer, and a charming, lovable, sweet soul."
Slash, whose real name is Saul Hudson, is not married to Hodges, but considered Knight a stepsister to his children London and Cash. Hodges shared the same statement on her social media pages.
