As we previously reported, Judd’s daughters put out a statement following her passing that said, “Today we sisters experienced a tragedy. We lost our beautiful mother to the disease of mental illness. We are shattered. We are navigating profound grief and know that as we loved her, she was loved by her public. We are in unknown territory. – Wynonna and Ashley”

This statement lead many to speculate, that Judd had taken her own life, something she had talked about struggling with in the past. The family asked for privacy and announced: “no additional information will be released at the time.”

In 2016 Judd released a book, ‘River of Time: My Descent into Depression and How I Emerged with Hope‘. The book details her struggle with suicidal depression.
