Here is the latest Brittany Murphy update. According to the Los Angeles Police Department, there is an investigation into the death of Brittany Murphy. Reports state that she possibly had diabetes, while speculation and rumor has circled the actress for years stating that she had a drug addiction and suffered from eating disorders. Though her death has been attributed to cardiac arrest, the cause of the attack has not yet been identified. As the cause of her death is under investigation, an autopsy will be performed.
Recent reports by TMZ state that Murphy’s husband, Simon Monjack, stated that he does not want an autopsy performed. The report alleges that Simon Monjack made the comment to staff members at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center when Brittany was taken to the hospital. She was pronounced dead upon arrival.
Though first response to a comment alleged by Simon Monjack might indicate foul play, it is important to realize that in the time of grief, an autopsy can be viewed as the ultimate abuse of a loved one. It is too early in the investigation for speculation to focus on Brittany Murphy’s husband and to suggest that foul play was involved, as is being alleged on social networking sites such as Twitter.
The death of Brittany Murphy has come as a sudden shock and surprise to the nation and Brittany’s fans worldwide. Spokesperson for Brittany Murphy released a statement that reads, “In this time of sadness, the family thanks you for your love and support. It is their wish that you respect their privacy."
Our prayers and best wishes are with Brittany Murphy’s family and friends at this difficult time.

Great details.
Eating disorders and drug use can lead to a cardiac arrest.
this is so sad, she was a wonderful actress
Maybe her husband doesn't want an autopsy performed because he knows of her drug use, so he's trying to spare her reputation.
its unfortunate that so many young celebs are perishing in this fashion. Ledger, DJ AM, etc. @Stephanie cocaine & being underweight will def send you into cardiac arrest. Perhaps the hubb doesnt want the drug connection as it will create that dark cloud that will forever loom and take away from what everyone wants to remember. The kooky happy starlette vs the waif thin drug addict.
Let's hope they do that autopsy. Smells like fowl play to me?
hey stephanie/dog examiner..NO DUH !!!!!!! WHAT a profound thought.Eating Disorders and Drug use lead to a cardiac arrest.
RIP Brittany: gone way too soon. My condolences to her friends, family, and loving co-workers.
such a beautiful person and great actress R.I.P brittany!
AND in the meantime, sick puppies are posting photoshop'd fake porn pics of her on facebook
It was Oxycontin and Cocaine.. Thats what will make your heart stop.
oxy and coke... that is just freakin great. Pure speculation and a sound hypothesis. This is what I'm talking about; we need to know the truth and if it doesn't come out I smell a pay-off.
Let the girl rest in peace. She is gone, why does everyone have to wonder what she died of? We are all going to die, she should be remembered of the the good things she has done.
I still can't belive that she is no longer with us...
It is so sad she was so young...
I Will always remember her for the beautifull and talented actress that she was...
