Just before he died, Simon Monjack was making plans for a European getaway and a new book project.
Speaking to PEOPLE on May 14, just nine days before his death at age 40, the onetime screenwriter said he hoped to travel to Europe with Sharon Murphy, the mother of his late wife Brittany.
“Of course I’ll take her with me – I can’t leave her, ” he said of Sharon. Planning to begin work on a photography book about ballet, he said he hoped the project would be therapeutic given Brittany’s love of ballet. “It seems fitting to do it,” he said.
A friend of Sharon’s confirms that it was she who found Monjack dead in the Hollywood home where the pair continued living after Brittany’s death. Already fragile in the wake of her daughter’s death five months earlier, a devastated Sharon is “not well at all,” says the friend.
“Brittany’s mom made the 911 call. He was unresponsive when responders arrived and was pronounced dead at the house,” L.A. Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter tells PEOPLE. “It’s being reported [by the responding fire department] as a possible heart attack. We’re not sure if it is natural causes or a possible accident maybe because of the prescription medication found there.”
Late last month, Sharon spoke to PEOPLE to vehemently refute rumors that she and Monjack were romantically involved.
“That’s disgusting,” she said. “We’re close friends and we’re family. It’s an awful and ridiculous thing to say.” |Read More
