Sad but not at all surprising. After the cancellation of her tour, you just knew that the end wasn’t too far off for her.

I absolutely loved her, she was doing so well earlier this year, it’s horrible to see that it all went down so fast for her again. we’ll always love you Amy! your music will live on forever.
