Michelle Trachtenberg was reportedly facing significant mental and physical challenges in the year leading up to her death.
According to an insider who spoke with People on Wednesday, the Gossip Girl star had been experiencing emotional distress while also dealing with undisclosed health issues.
“She confided in friends about her struggles,” the source revealed. “She was extremely unwell and openly shared with those close to her just how difficult things had become.”
Friends and followers of the 39-year-old actress observed that she appeared "pale, gaunt," and "very thin" in the weeks leading up to her passing.
Likewise, a neighbor of Trachtenberg told Us Weekly that she had become noticeably "svelte" and had started looking "less and less like herself" in recent months.
The Harriet the Spy star suffered cardiac arrest in her New York City apartment on Wednesday morning. Her mother discovered her around 8 a.m.
When police arrived, she was pronounced dead at the scene.
