Monjack had been speaking of health problems in an interview earlier this year, saying he was taking a lot of medication. "Most of the drugs are mine. I suffer from seizures. I had a heart attack coming back from Puerto Rico last year," he told the Daily Mirror.
It followed an emergency 911 call about 9.30pm Sunday (Los Angeles time) for an “unspecified medical aid request”, LA fire department spokesman Brian Humphrey said.
The coroner’s office was notified at 11:30 p.m. Sunday and was en route to the address, but a spokesperson would not confirm the identity of the deceased.
Police were called to the Monjack home at approximately 9:30pm Sunday, TMZ is reporting that Monjack was found by Brittany Murphy's mother, Sharon. Simon Monjack was pronounced dead at the scene.
Murphy died in February of pneumonia complicated by multiple drug intoxication, an iron deficiency and anemia. She was best known for her role in Clueless and her voice-over work in the animated family movie Happy Feet.
