Katy Perry Shares Heartfelt Post and Old Pics on Social Media as She Mourns Loss of Patricia Bragg
Global music sensation Katy Perry paid tribute to her old family friend Patricia Bragg on Instagram in an emotional tribute that touched the hearts of her millions of fans. In addition to being a personal friend, Bragg served as Perry's mentor and left a lasting impression that the singer treasured when she passed away on August 10 at the age of 94.
Bragg first became acquainted with Perry when she used to listen to her parents, who were pastors, deliver church sermons. These ties allowed the two to form a special bond that led rise to a shared interest. Perry's mother and Bragg had a desire to take over Bragg Live Foods, which is known for its high-quality apple cider vinegar products. Their friendship developed into a partnership in the promotion of health and well-being as a result of their shared vision, which further cemented their relationship, per The News.
Perry was greatly saddened by the news of Patricia Bragg's demise and used an emotional Instagram post to share her feelings. Bragg was described in vivid detail by Perry in her words, along with the effect she made on her life. Perry began the post by praising her friend Bragg, noting that despite her small stature, she had a strong personality. Perry compared Bragg to a "fairy of happiness and health, with flowers in her hair," whose infectious joy penetrated everyone around her.
Perry talked about their personal connection and also underlined the relevance of Bragg's signature product, Bragg apple cider vinegar. The singer jokingly recounted her initial bewilderment when Bragg and the product itself were first introduced to her in the 1990s. However, as Perry grew older, she realized the importance of Bragg's advice for both her physical health and the nourishing of her soul.
