Luke Perry's Daughter Reveals He Was Buried in Eco-Friendly Mushroom Suit

Luke Perry‘s daughter is opening up about his final wishes.

Sophie Perry took to Instagram on Friday (May 3) to reveal that her dad was buried in a biodegradable mushroom suit.

“In December I went to San Francisco with two of my best friends. One of them, had never never been to California, so we went to show him the Redwoods. I took this picture while we were there, because i thought, ‘damn, those mushrooms are beautiful’,” the 18-year-old explained.

Sophie added: “Now, mushrooms hold an entirely new meaning for me. Any explanation i give will not do justice to the genius that is the mushroom burial suit, but it is essentially an eco friendly burial option via mushrooms.”

According to Coeio.com – the company that designs the mushroom suits – each suit costs about $1,500 and includes a button-up fabric with a hood and face cover. The suit works to speed up the decomposition process and has built-in mushrooms and other microorganisms that work together to do this, as well as neutralize toxins found in the body and transfer nutrients to plant life.

“My dad discovered it, and was more excited by this than I have ever seen him. He was buried in this suit, one of his final wishes,” Sophie concluded. “They are truly a beautiful thing for this beautiful planet, and I want to share it with all of you.”

Luke passed away in March at the young age of 52 after suffering from a stroke.

Luke Perry's Daughter Sophie Speaks Out About Social Media Attention: 'Some People Just Can't Be Nice'

Luke Perry‘s daughter Sophie is speaking out after receiving an influx of attention on social media following her father’s passing.

The 18-year-old explained that she did not ask for the attention, criticism of her life choices and how she is grieving her loss.

“Since my dad died I have received a lot of attention online. And most of it has been positive but of course, some people just can’t be nice. And I’m here to say that I did not ask for this attention, I did not ask to be thrown into some virtual spotlight, and while I don’t mean to offend anybody, I’m also not going to cater to any one else’s needs and beliefs. I’m 18,” Sophie wrote.

She continued, “I swear like a sailor and sometimes I dress like a hooker. And I support causes and you may not. And most importantly. I am going to laugh and smile and live my normal life. YES I am hurt and sad and crying and beside myself with what happened to my dad. It’s the worst thing to ever happen in my life. And I am torn the f**k up over it. But I’m not going to sit in my room and cry day in and day out until the internet has deemed it appropriate for me to do otherwise. And if you knew my dad you would know he wouldnt want me to. So you shouldn’t either. So to those of you shaming me for my language and my wardrobe and most disgustingly, my grieving process, do us both the favor and just unfollow. It’s a waste of both of your time.”
