“Rest In Peace our Magnificent Diamond, you will be greatly missed!”
Diamond, of the popular conservative influencer duo Diamond and Silk, has passed away. Diamond's legal name was Ineitha Lynette Hardaway.
Donald Trump responded to the tragic news with a post on his Truth Social account:
"Really bad news for Republicans and frankly, ALL Americans. Our beautiful Diamond, of Diamond and Silk, has just passed away at her home in the State she loved so much, North Carolina. Silk was with her all the way, and at her passing. There was no better TEAM anywhere, or at any time! Diamond’s death was totally unexpected, probably her big and precious HEART just plain gave out. Rest In Peace our Magnificent Diamond, you will be greatly missed!"
Conservative luminaries were quick to offer their sincere symapthies.
