Brittany Murphy Had Heart Murmur

Brittany Murphy had a heart murmur and the actress’ mother believes that’s what may have killed her. “The congenital condition was diagnosed when Brittany was a teenager and she always had the best medical care for it,” Sharon Murphy said, RadarOnline.com reports. “We had it checked out every which way you could imagine,” Brittany’s husband Simon Monjack told People magazine. Murphy’s mother also insisted that Brittany did not do drugs, rarely drank and was not mentally ill - all of which have been rumored. The actress died in December at age 32. Her official cause of death is still pending.
