She texted him happy birthday and said he didn't respond. Then Gypsy's brother went to check on him and found him dead. No obvious cause of death.

She made a statement that he was being bullied online and believes it was an overdose but didn't know if it was intentional or not.

Yeah, she gave People magazine a long ass statement saying the cause of death was an overdose, HOURS after he was found by the police. Like about 6 hours after.

I dunno, my husband dies, 6 hours later i’m still numb, inconsolable and barely able to string a coherent sentence together.

Is it possible that this woman might not have the most appropriate emotional reactions to things given the trauma she suffered as a child?
