Slash Mourns Loss of Stepdaughter, 25; Cancels Upcoming Shows

Slash is mourning the loss of his 25-year-old stepdaughter Lucy-Bleu Knight and has canceled several upcoming shows on his S.E.R.P.E.N.T. tour as a result of the tragic news.

Knight was the daughter of Meegan Hodges, Slash’s partner since 2015. The Guns N’ Roses guitarist shared a social media post yesterday (July 21) canceling a couple of performances due to “unforeseen circumstances.”

Slash and Hodges confirmed late last night that Knight died on July 19. She was 25 years old, but no cause of death has been disclosed.

“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, Calif. on July 19, 2024,” the post reads.

“Lucy-Bleu was 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.”

“Words cannot express our deepest sympathy and condolences. Love you all so much,” Susan Holmes McKagan, wife of Duff McKagan, commented on the post.

“There are no words. Sending absolutely all of my love and hugs and condolences and support to you guys,” Guns N’ Roses keyboardist Melissa Reese wrote.

“So Sorry Meegan and Slash. May God Bless and Keep Lucy Bleu Sending Love & Light Zakk & Barbaranne,” added Zakk Wylde’s wife Barbaranne.

The S.E.R.P.E.N.T. tour shows that have been canceled include July 22 in Cincinnati, Ohio, July 24 in Interlochen, Mich., July 25 in Huber Heights, Ohio, and July 27 in Windsor, Ontario. Refunds will be provided to fans who purchased tickets to these performances.

As of now, the tour is expected to resume on July 28 in Toronto.

Our condolences go out to Knight’s family and loved ones. Rest in peace, Lucy-Bleu Knight.
