Lucy-Bleu Knight’s Last Instagram Post
It appears that Lucy-Bleu Knight had an Instagram page and a following of 40,000. In her bio, she is described as an artist, and she wrote, “Feed the soul, starve the ego.” Her last post was just one day ago. It was a sad note and an apology to people in her life who she may have hurt.
“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,” it reads. “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.”
There are many comments on her post, including some speculation about why she posted it; however, we will not address this as the family has asked for fans not to speculate on her cause of death and rather to respect their privacy.
