Months after the tragic passings of Carrie Fisher and her mother, Debbie Reynolds, the stars’ causes of death have been revealed.

Carrie sadly died of sleep apnea and a combination of other causes at age 60 on Dec. 27, 2016, the LA County coroner’s office confirmed to the Associated Press on Friday, June 16. TMZ later revealed she had cocaine, morphine, codeine, and oxycodone in her system, but it’s unclear how much of a role, if any, the drugs played in her passing.

According to the Singin’ in the Rain star’s death certificate, Debbie passed away from a blood vessel that ruptured and caused bleeding in her brain. Her official cause of death was an intracerebral hemorrhage from high blood pressure, which is essentially a stroke.

Carrie’s cause of death was previously thought to be a heart attack, as the Hollywood icon went into cardiac arrest during a flight from London to LA days before her passing.
