Chris Daughtry’s family has confirmed that the singer’s stepdaughter Hannah died by suicide.

Hannah was the daughter of Chris’ wife Deanna from a previous relationship and was found dead at her Nashville home by police in November.

Chris’ family told People in a statement: ‘Our beloved Daughter Hannah Price passed away on November 12th, 2021.

‘Much speculation has been made since that date, and after a full investigation by law enforcement we are now able to speak in further detail.’

They said Hannah had been ‘in and out of therapy and treatment centres’ and added: ‘As Hannah got older, she struggled to find her footing and began using drugs and often found herself in abusive relationships.’

The statement went on to say that, months after losing her biological father, Hannah was the victim of a crime and was shot in the face.

Hannah’s family said they ‘did everything we could to support her and get her the help she needed to recover from these tragedies and get her life back on track,’ adding they recently, ‘made plans with Hannah for her to seek further treatment and move closer to the family.’

Hannah called her family on the morning of her death, according to the statement, saying she was in fear of her life.

She told them her boyfriend physically abused her and took their car, with the family calling Fentress County Police Department for a wellness check.

The wellness check was reportedly performed, but Hannah was found dead later that day by her boyfriend.

The statement went on: ‘Hannah was a generous and loving person who wanted more for herself and others. She will forever be in the hearts and minds of those of us who love her.

‘We ask for your continued privacy at this time while we grieve. If you or a loved one is experiencing mental health, abuse, or addiction problems, please seek help immediately.’

Chris, 42, and Deanna have been together since 2000 when Hannah and her 23-year-old brother Griffin were small children.
