David Cassidy’s Daughter Lovingly Recalled His Last Words Weeks before News That He Left Her Out of His Will

• David Cassidy, a.k.a. Keith from "The Partridge Family," enjoyed a successful career before passing away at 67.
• He shared a complicated relationship with his daughter, Katie Cassidy, who later shared his last words before his death.
• Soon after his death in 2017, the news of Katie being cut out of his will surfaced.

Best known for his role as Keith Partridge in the popular American sitcom "The Partridge Family," David Cassidy stepped into the world of acting at 19 when he played a role in the Broadway show, "The Fig Leaves Are Falling."

He rose to popularity at a young age and soon began touring for his musical performances. His fans enjoyed watching him sing, and many girls in the 1970s had a crush on the then-young David.

Whenever people learned about Cassidy performing near their homes, they immediately bought tickets to watch him live. His popularity as a young singer was enough to sell tickets quickly.

However, one of his performances turned into a horrifying incident when a teenage girl died in a stampede at the White City Stadium in London in 1974. The incident affected the young singer so much that he said he felt "burnt up inside."

While enjoying a successful career, David tied the knot thrice and had two children, Katie Cassidy and Beau Cassidy. However, he doesn't share the same relationship with his kids

"I've never had a relationship with her," David said about his daughter, revealing that he did not raise Katie like most fathers do. She was raised by her mother, Sherry Williams, while Beau was raised by his mother, David's ex-wife, Sue Shifrin.

Katie has made several film and TV appearances, including "Black Christmas" and "Arrow," but never took help from her father. In an interview with People, David described his daughter as "talented" and said it was difficult to believe that she had grown up to become a successful woman.

What Were David Cassidy's Last Words before His Death?

After rising to fame at a young age, tying the knot multiple times, having kids, and enjoying a successful musical career, David breathed his last at the age of 67. Although he did not share a close relationship with Katie, she opened up about his last words and how losing her father affected her.

Following her father's death, Katie thanked the people who supported her family in a heartfelt tweet. She also revealed her father's last words to be: "So much wasted time," to which she reflected:

"This will be a daily reminder for me to share my gratitude with those I love as to never waste another minute…"

David died due to organ failure, leaving his family grieving his painful demise. The singer was hospitalized after his liver and kidneys stopped working, and he soon breathed his last on November 21, 2017.

Did David Cassidy Cut Katie Out of His Will?

Soon after David's death, news of Katie being left out of his will surfaced. According to the legal documents, the singer left most of his wealth, worth $150,000, to Beau. Meanwhile, Katie did not inherit any of her father's assets.

David wrote his will in 2004, specifying that Katie would not receive anything. He stated, "It is my specific intent not to provide any benefits hereunder to Katherine Evelyn Cassidy."

According to Katie, she got to know her father in fourth grade, but he didn't raise her. She recalled living with her mother and stepfather and said her father was her "good friend."

Losing her father was a devastating experience for Katie and the rest of David's family, but the "Gossip Girl" actress found a silver lining amid her life's difficult situation. She revealed that his death made her family closer.

Although Katie shared a complicated relationship with her late father, the man told her something that significantly improved her life. The actress shared the "great advice" her father gave her:

"Don't ever stop going to class. That's where you should put your money."

Following her father's advice made Katie feel confident. She describes herself in her Instagram bio as an "Actor. Director. Producer. Creative type continuously evolving" and regularly posts photos of herself, her work, and her family.
