Rvssian, Popcaan And More React To Steffie Gregg’s Death
Popular Jamaican socialite Stephanie Gregg, the 26-year-old daughter of former race car driver Gary Gregg, sister of racer car driver Kyle ‘Speedy’ Gregg, and niece of Dancehall producer Rvssian, is dead.
Gregg reportedly had underlying health issues and suffered from an autoimmune disorder, and developed complications after contracting COVID-19. She was airlifted to Miami this week but died on Tuesday.
Known affectionately as Steffie, she was a popular figure from the upper St. Andrew community, with over 34,000 IG followers, and was an avid video game player.
Rvssian, who also recently lost his father, shared an Instagram post today that memorialized Steffie.
“I feel helpless 💔💔💔 my little Steffie @svg876_ I feel I failed you and couldn’t protect you from this.. COVID is REAL, You don’t know until it hits home 😭,” Rvssian wrote. “I lost you & daddy in the same week 😭 You were one of the happiest persons Ever & always had a great vibe & you lit the room up with your energy.”
“You taught my daughter adri the wine dance moves 🙄 haha you guys remind me so much of each other. The hardest part was explaining to her that she will never be with you again was so hard when she cried out for you 💔💔She loved you so much and looked up to you. It broke my heart,” he continued.
“When u was a 6/7 years old me & xav & kyle use to say we would always have the shotgun ready for any of the boys who bother you. But you grew into a beautiful young lady who had all them at your feet, and we use to laugh about that together. Your mom is one of the strongest women I know & you got that from her – literal twins… I promise to take care of her for you because she lost her dad and you her daughter in one week and that can break anyone.”
On Steffie’s most recent Instagram posts, there was an outpouring of support from friends, family, and members of the Dancehall community.
Dancehall deejay Popcaan commented a stunned ‘No Way’ while many other persons sent condolences.
