Cory
Monteith died from a lethal combination of heroin and alcohol, it has
been revealed.
The
Glee actor, who was found dead in his hotel room on Saturday at the
age of 31, died from a 'mixed drug toxicity, involving heroin and
alcohol,' according to authorities.
The
British Columbia Coroners Service revealed the autopsy results on
Tuesday.
It
follows claims the star led a 'double life' as a hard-worker when in
Los Angeles, and a substance-abuser whenever he would return to his
native Canada.
Monteith,
who checked into rehab in March, managed to stay clean while on the
Glee set, but his resolve to stay sober weakened whenever he visited
Vancouver, a source told TMZ.
According
to sources, Monteith's girlfriend and Glee costar Lea Michele, along
with the rest of the hit television show's cast, were aware of his
addiction problems and worked hard to keep him clean and sober.
Monteith
allegedly never showed up for work under the influence of drugs or
alcohol and abstained from these substances 'most of the time.'
But
his life in Canada painted a different picture.
Monteith
allegedly returned to his hometown of Vancouver often, and surrounded
himself with friends who fueled his addiction.
Drugs
and alcohol were reportedly 'always involved.'
Monteith's
family is said to have been aware that he reverted back to his
hard-partying ways in the North American city, but they were unable
to help.
The
Glee Project, a reality TV series where hopefuls competed for roles on
Glee, has been cancelled after two season, the Oxygen network
confirmed on Tuesday.
Sources
insist the cancellation was unrelated to Glee star Cory Monteith's
death, adding that the decision was made 'several weeks ago.'
So
sad, at just 31 when
he should be enjoying life, he goes an kills himself. Money and Fame
indeed doesn't
bring fulfillment. Find PURPOSE, it
does.
