After the devastating loss of her daughter, former Miss USA beauty queen Cheslie Kryst, her mother April Simpkins is opening up about the pain of losing a child in such a tragic way.
From the public’s eye, Kryst seemed to have it all, but her private life told a different story.
Her mother said in a statement obtained by People, “While it may be hard to believe, it’s true. Cheslie led both a public and a private life. In her private life, she was dealing with high-functioning depression which she hid from everyone — including me, her closest confidant — until very shortly before her Death.”
Simpkins also said in the statement:
“I have never known a pain as deep as this. I am forever changed. Today, what our family and friends privately knew was the cause of Death of my sweet baby girl, Cheslie, was officially confirmed.”
The recent Death of the former beauty queen and lawyer has shocked many and has been ruled a suicide, the New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner confirmed to People
