Brittany Murphy’s death has “destroyed” her husband, femalefirst.co.uk reports.
The late Clueless actress’ spouse, British screenwriter Simon Monjack, has spoken out about his beloved wife — who died of cardiac arrest at her Los Angeles home aged just 32 on Sunday — and his devastation at her passing.
He said on Monday that, “My world was destroyed yesterday.”
Monjack also revealed life had been normal for the pair until she was found collapsed in the shower surrounded by her own vomit, although Brittany had been suffering from a sore throat recently.
Recalling how her lifeless body was discovered, he explained to Access Hollywood: “Her mother, Sharon, went into the bathroom because she had been in there a long time. Her mom screamed for me and I ran. Then I called 911.
“She had laryngitis. She had been tired at the end of the year. She had made a couple of movies.”
Monjack has also denied rumours Brittany had been mixing with “controlling” people.
He explained: “I don’t know why anyone would think that. She found love. We found love. Brittany didn’t get to where Brittany was with anyone controlling her — Brittany was Brittany.”
In related news, Los Angeles coroner’s officials are looking into how details of an investigator’s report on Brittany Murphy’s death were leaked to TMZ.
Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter says he doesn’t know how the website apparently obtained the confidential report.
