According to a family member, Knight was “tragically killed” in June while taking part in the Rock’n’Cars Festival in Lavaur, France, News reported.
They said, “He was only 54 and living the good life.” “He had everything going for him—he was happy, healthy, and in good shape. He was incredibly lovable by [his partner] Hayley, his family, and friends worldwide. He was also charming, humorous, and passionate.”
Reports from the French media state that Knight was the sole festivalgoer to die when a big tree branch fell on top of him and a few other people.
Joanne Allen, the sister of Knight’s longterm lover, Hayley Wright, created a GoFundMe campaign.
Allen writes, “Haley is now facing life without Tony, her soulmate, and living her worst nightmare.”
“She is in Bouillac dealing with the challenges of Tony being an Englishman living in France with Australian residency; planning a funeral; paying for Tony’s hospital stays; meeting with police investigators, physicians, and the mayor; going to the scene of the accident; and organizing Tony’s estate, all while.
