Model Niece Waidhofer, who died by suicide, remembered by bassist Johnny Christ: 'You are not alone in this'

Model Niece Waidhofer has died by suicide at the age of 31, according to her family. The model struggled with "mental health issues," her family revealed.

Lauryn Overhultz is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.

"I will for many reasons never forget the conversations we had recording an episode with her, and those off the record. I can honestly say I didn't know much about Niece before her coming on the show, and really didn't know what to expect," Christ wrote on the Instagram page of his show "Drinks with Johnny." "All I knew was that she was an Instagram model with a huge following, and a fan of my band AVENGED SEVENFOLD."

He added: "We all have struggles in our lives that can feel like it's too much to bear at times. We fight with our own minds sometimes and it's hard to admit when we need help with these battles. Know that you are not alone in this. You are not the only one in this world with problems that seem insurmountable, and there are places to go that can help. There are people in the world that care about you and want to help."
