According to People.com, Brittany’s husband Simon Monjack and her mother Sharon Murphy had previously thought a heart murmur was to blame for her death, and they vehemently denied she was abusing drugs. Still, prescription medications were found on the actress’ nightstand, including painkillers and antidepressants. Monjack had also said that Murphy was suffering from flu-like symptoms before she died.

A full autopsy report is still pending and will reportedly be available in the next couple of weeks. The 32-year-old star collapsed in her home in December, and attempts to revive her were unsuccessful.
