Brittany Murphy’s brother has spoken out as he continues to search for answers 13 years after her death as he believes she was ‘taken out’.
The actress unexpectedly died aged just 32 in December of 2009 after collapsing at her Hollywood home; the coroner’s report stated that the primary cause of her death was pneumonia.
Murphy’s husband, British screenwriter Simon Monjack, 40, also passed away from pneumonia and anemia five months later.
Tony Bertolotti, 74, is linked to Brittany through father Angelo, who passed in January 2019 aged 92, after spending years trying to uncover the truth about his daughter.

Speaking to The Sun, Tony revealed he’s discovered that there were three people in control of the late Clueless stars estate – Sharon, a newspaper editor, and a doctor she was being treated by.
He explained Brittany had ‘no control over her estate’ and: ‘There were huge amounts of money in [Brittany’s] pension plan and bank account, and all of that’s gone.’
Tony is looking for answers on where Brittany’s $10 million fortune went and believes her mother Sharon, who lived with the couple before they passed away, knows the truth.

He said: ‘Sharon knows the truth and she hasn’t picked up the phone with one member of the family and told them the truth.’
Reports at the time said Monjack was written out of the will and the whole of the estate went to Sharon, but as Brittany’s assets were held in a trust, her estate’s contents remain confidential.
Tony added: ‘There’s no way she died of natural causes. It’s impossible. It’s bull***t, total c**p. It was obvious to me, she was taken out.’

She later moved on to film roles and starred in numerous successful movies including Drop Dead Gorgeous, Girl, Interrupted and Cherry Falls.
The actress also made several ventures into voice acting and notably voiced Luanne Platter on the longrunning animated comedy show King Of The Hill.

However, Murphy unexpectedly passed away in December of 2009 after collapsing at her Hollywood home; the coroner’s report stated that the primary cause of her death was pneumonia.
It was also revealed that the actress had been suffering from the effects of iron deficiency anemia and that she was using various over-the-counter drugs and prescribed medications; both factors contributed to her passing.
Months later, Murphy’s husband Simon Monjack was found dead in the couple’s home, and his death was also attributed to pneumonia and anemia as well, which fueled tabloid rumors for a lengthy period.
