they did what?! Celeb News & Gossip
Los Angeles, California (CNN) -- There were no signs of foul play or criminal activity in the death of the widower of actress Brittany Murphy, Los Angeles Police Sgt. Alex Ortiz said.

British screenwriter Simon Monjack was found dead Sunday night at his Hollywood home, according to the Los Angeles County coroner's office.

Murphy, his wife of less than three years, died just five months ago.

Monjack, 39, was pronounced dead after the Los Angeles Fire Department was called to the home for a medical emergency, according to police.

Brittany's mother, Sharon Murphy, found Monjack unconscious in his bedroom and called the fire department, a family friend said.

The friend, who asked not to be identified because of the sensitivity of the matter, said Monjack was known to have heart issues. Family and friends suspect he died of a heart attack, she said.

An autopsy is scheduled to be conducted Tuesday, according to the coroner's spokeswoman.

Sharon Murphy shared the house with Monjack. It is the same Hollywood Hills home where Brittany Murphy lived.

Murphy, 32, died in December from a combination of pneumonia, an iron deficiency and multiple drug intoxication, a coroner said. The drugs involved were legal and used to treat a respiratory infection, according to an autopsy.

The often bubbly, free-spirited actress appeared in films such as "Clueless," "8 Mile," "Don't Say a Word" and "Girl, Interrupted."

She also lent her voice to animated works, including the movie "Happy Feet" -- in which she also sang -- and a regular role on the animated TV series "King of the Hill."

Monjack and Murphy were married in May 2007. The couple had no children.

Why did it suddenly twist from an article about her husband to a rehash of Brittany's life and subsequent death? =/ not fair.

I agree with the above noter. But I find it hard to be too sad about Simon, he's back together with Brittany, though still sad his life was cut short. I feel SO HORRIBLE for Sharon! She was clinging so tightly to Simon after Brittany's passing, now she has another death to grieve for and she's alone in that house full of so much loss...
