Diamond & Silk Last Live Video Before Death | Try Not To Cry😭
Lynnette Hardaway and Herneitha Rochelle Hardaway Richardson, known as Diamond and Silk, were a pair of American conservative political commentators and vloggers.
The two were prominently known for their support of Donald Trump, and served as contributors for conservative news channel Newsmax.
The duo received media attention during the 2016 presidential campaign of Trump and again in April 2018 when Facebook notified them they were "unsafe to the community."
In response, they publicly complained that Facebook blocked and censored their Facebook page.
On April 26, 2018, at Rep. Steve King's invitation they testified in front of Congress about their removal from the community.
Subsequently, Republican members of Congress brought up the two women's censorship claims at Mark Zuckerberg's testimony before U.S. Congress.
In April 2020, the two were terminated from Fox News for questioning the legitimacy of COVID-19 data.
On January 9, 2023, Trump announced on Truth Social that Diamond had died at her home in North Carolina.
While he stated that, "probably her big and precious heart just plain gave out", her official cause of death was not immediately made clear.
She had taken an absence from their Newsmax program with an unspecified illness in November 2022 before briefly returning in December.
Following the controversial Unite the Right rally held in Charlottesville, Virginia, on August and in 2017, Hardaway and Richardson, appearing on Fox & Friends, were critical of protesters on both sides in the event.
Hardaway criticized Neo-Nazi groups and the Ku Klux Klan for "spewing hate and ... creating violence" declaring "all of them should be condemned and denounced. Period". In the same interview, she also said she does not "like Black Lives Matter and Antifa." They further noted that they feel statues of Civil War Confederate soldiers should be kept in museums.
Hardaway and Richardson, in December 2017, expressed support for Omarosa Manigault Newman following her controversial firing as White House liaison and assistant, faulting the treatment of her by African Americans and the media generally:
Addressing Roberts's remarks, Hardaway said, "How is it that you want the community to come up and then when a sister is sitting at the table, 'Well, she didn’t represent us'? Are you crazy?
We send our deepest condolences to the family friends of Diamond
Rest in power queen
