Brittany Murphy’s death did not involve foul play, according to the L.A. County Coroner’s Office. They claim, somewhat prematurely, that the death of the 32-year-old appears to have been natural. There’s nothing natural about someone in their early 30s dropping dead, but what the heck do I know. Despite Murphy’s hubby Simon Monjack not wanting an autopsy, one will be conducted against his wishes. This will be taking place today or tomorrow. Results of a toxicology test could take up to six weeks to get back. Some prescription meds were found at her house. Authorities would not specify which types.
Murphy was ill the day of her passing, suffering with flu-like symptoms. She had been ill for several days and had been vomiting the morning she died. She was found with vomit around her when her mother discovered her unconscious in the shower. Her mother mentioned to paramedics that her daughter suffered from Type 2 Diabetes, though it is not thought that could be what caused her death.

It’s a shame because she was actually a decent actress. Why are all of the young actors and actresses dying away all of a sudden?
We’re losing a whole lot of people, it’s the saddest thing. The Summer of Death became the Winter of Death, and it’s clearly not going away.
May be they can’t take the prescription drugs and illegal drugs as well as the old hollywood/music stars could..
There’s something rather odd about her husband NOT wanting an autopsy.
Do we recall MJ’s kin NOT wanting one either initially? And after it was performed the results were delayed interminably. And they were finally disclosed only after a certain nurse came forward with her own eye-witness observations.
This will get much press in the days to come.
I agree, something is off about that. As though we don’t need to know why a 32-year-old died of a heart attack. Hmm…
