‘What Happened, Brittany Murphy?’ questions the validity of conspiracy theories surrounding her death.
by officials involved at the time with several people closest to her indicating that her untimely demise could have been prevented. Among the many theories about her death are drug overdose, poisoning, mold in her house, or a mysterious murder and coverup by her husband, Simon Monjack.
Sadly, the accusation of taking too many drugs was a result of Murphy’s own physical transformation in front of the press. According to the docuseries, the actress, despite becoming a hit thanks to, was told that she wasn’t skinny enough to be taken seriously as a leading star, which led Murphy to lose a lot of weight. This then led the press to think she had an eating disorder while Perez Hilton accused her of being on pills.
After Monjack died five months later under wildly similar circumstances, another popular theory emerged: that visible mold in the house was responsible for both deaths. It was one that Murphy’s mother, Sharon, was convinced was responsible for the loss of her daughter and son-in-law. While the symptoms of ingesting mold spores matched what Murphy and Monjack experienced, the medical examiner “didn’t see any evidence of mold in her lungs or any other organs.
Many people quickly became suspicious of Monjack following Murphy’s death, going as far to claim he had something to do with it, especially after it was revealed he didn’t want to have an autopsy performed on her body. Despite the internet sleuths' distrust of Murphy’s husband, the police did not investigate him for murder and found no evidence of foul play.
