She released a memoir this past May called “This Is Me: A Reckoning,” in which she was candid about her struggles from child stardom through adulthood. In the book, she shared “a rare and intimate glimpse into her life behind closed doors, opening up about postpartum depression, addiction and recovery, trauma, domestic abuse, and loss.”

Her father has asked for privacy “as our family takes time to process this unimaginable loss.” Our hearts go out to her family as they go through this difficult time.
