Her mom April Simpkins told Jada Pinkett Smith’s Red Table Talk show on Wednesday that she received the message when she was working out in an exercise class.

Simpkins said Kryst timed it so she wouldn’t be able to “intervene”.

The message said: “First, I’m sorry, by the time you get this, I won’t be alive anymore. And it makes me even more sad to write this because I know it will hurt you the most.

“I love you mom, and you are my best friend, and the person I’ve lived for for years.

“I wish I could stay with you, but I cannot bear the crushing weight of persistent sadness, hopelessness, and loneliness any longer.”

Kryst, who won the Miss USA contest in 2019, thanked her mom for supporting her during the moment she felt lonely.

The heartbreaking text continued: “You have kept me alive and ready to face another day because you answer every phone call and you are there for me at the drop of a hat.

“I love you more than any person I’ve ever known. You’ve done nothing wrong, you’ve done everything right.”


During the heart-wrenching interview, Simpkins revealed that Kryst had tried to take her life before.

In February, Simpkins said her daughter was dealing with “high functioning depression” that she hid from family members.

Authorities revealed she left a note saying that she wanted to leave everything for Simpkins.

Kryst said: “My mom is my role model. I always look up to her and ask her for her advice.”

Kryst lived alone in her plush apartment located in the Hells Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan after moving in last September.

Hours before her death, she uploaded a chilling post on Instagram of herself captioned: “May this day bring you rest and peace.”

Last year, she revealed that she spent eight days in the hospital and wrote about “running out of time” in a chilling essay.

She penned a heartbreaking piece about turning 30 where she discussed her struggles with aging, her work ethic, and her search for purpose.
