Fans and family of Naomi Judd are still reeling from the loss of the country singer. On April 29, 2022, Naomi's daughter Ashley wrote on social media "Today we sisters experienced a tragedy. We lost our beautiful mother to [...] mental illness [...] We are navigating profound grief and know that as we loved her, she was loved by her public."
