The once promising star’s life seemed to spiral at an almost feverish pace. Drugs, rehab stays and a boyfriend who died under odd circumstances almost a month ago were just some of the troubles she faced as the days went on.
A source close to the singer said that she ended her life with a gunshot — as well as that of her dog.
A source tells E! News that Mindy’s father, Tim McCready had been staying with her until this morning when he returned to Florida. When her father left, “she was in good spirits and seemed to be fine.”
Her actions in the past had caused her to lose custody of her two children and the death of her boyfriend, David Wilson last month at the age of 34 (who also committed suicide with a gunshot blast) seemed to send her over the edge. She was rumored to have been involved with his passing, although she vehemently denied those claims.
“I have never gone through anything this painful,” she said in an interview last month with NBC. “He didn’t just touch my heart, he touched my soul. He was my soulmate.”
In a very tragic twist, she also joins another list — the third person to pass away following their appearance on VH1′s reality show, Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew, all in the same season (Real World alum Joey Kovar and former Alice In Chains bass player, Mike Starr appeared with McCready during the show’s third season).
Her final album, ironically titled I’m Still Here, was released in 2010 and charted significantly lower than her past releases.
No matter the perception of her life, may she now find the peace she obviously tried so desperately to find.
