Catherine O’Hara’s cause of death confirmed
The Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office confirmed it. The actress, who left us at the age of 71, died from a pulmonary embolism. A clot blocked blood flow to his lungs.
But here comes the data that gives context. According to the information TMZ had access to, that embolism was a direct complication of the rectal cancer that the actress was facing. The disease triggered the fatal obstruction.
The information suggests that it was a cause derived from the rectal cancer that the actress suffered from.
Another sad detail that became known this Monday: his body was cremated. Her ashes were given to Bo Welch, her husband of 34 years. He is a producer and art director, his life partner.
Let’s remember how it all went. In late January, TMZ reported that Catherine was rushed to the hospital because she was having trouble breathing. Shortly after, he lost his life.
A beloved figure is leaving, and we now know the difficult medical path he took in his final days.
