I loved her work. She had a beautiful voice. One writer did say yesterday, that she was at heart a punk musician shoehorned into being a pop musician and I think there’s some truth to that. But I love her stuff, and wish she’d had a chance to do more work back in the day as like all good artists she would have continued to grow.
The son had a history of struggling with mental illness, and had previously been on suicide watch. It’s said he was ultimately successful in taking his own life - and it’s been suggested she may have ultimately done the same although that has in now way been officially confirmed or denied. But it wouldn’t be the first time a celebrity suffering horribly following a child taking their life. Kristoff St. John, a soap opera actor on THE YOUNG AND THE RESTLESS struggled a lot and was on suicide watch after his own son took his life. He apparently also drank a lot which was a contributing factor in his untimely death in 2019.
