“I’m A Bit Lost For Words” – Becky Lynch Thanks Fan Following Emotional Tribute to Her Late Father Ken Quin
Becky Lynch announced a piece of heartbreaking news a few months back. Becky, whose real name is Rebecca Quinn, announced her father Ken Quin passed away.
Ken was diagnosed with Lung Cancer back in 2016. After 5 years of fight, he succumbed to the illness on March 12, 2021. Lynch announced the unfortunate news on Instagram.
“My Dad passed away this morning, My god was he a great Dad,” Lynch wrote. “My brother and I never had a second’s doubt that he loved us unconditionally. He was proud of us no matter what. Not for what we did, but for who we were. The rest was just details for my pops.”
‘The Man‘ then detailed how much of an impact her father had on her. From getting her interested in “books, writing, theatre, movies, life,” to showering incessant support for her wrestling career, Ken was there for all.
“My Dad was a character, a gent, an athlete, an intellectual, and a creator,” Lynch revealed. “He was always full of positivity and ready to have chats with anyone he crossed paths with, making friends at every turn. Such a charmer he was with his unmistakable, slightly regal voice and love of storytelling.”
Becky Lynch welcomed her first child with Seth Rollins on 4th December 2020. However, due to covid-related travel restrictions, the new parents and the baby could not meet Lynch’s parents. Lynch hoped to be as good of a parent as her dad was.

The picture also featured a quote from Ken Quin. “One of the things I love about life is to see people succeed in what they do because of their passion, and she (Lynch) has that in spades.”
The post also caught Lynch’s attention, who liked the post and wrote, “This is absolutely incredible. Thank you so much for doing this. I’m a bit lost for words.”
