  • Cathriona White: Jim Carrey Serves as Pallbearer at Her Funeral in Ireland

    Cathriona White, former girlfriend of actor Jim Carrey, was laid to rest in a funeral in Ireland on Saturday. Carrey served as one of several pallbearers, helping to carry the casket carrying Cathriona White into the Cappawhite Cemetery, where she was laid to rest beside her late father.

    It was back on September 28 that Cathriona White was found dead in Sherman Oaks, California, as a result of a suspected suicide. She was found with several notes and several bottles of pills, including Ambien, Percocet, Zofran, and Propranolol.

    Jim Carrey issued a statement about the passing of his on-and-off girlfriend via his publicist.

    “I am shocked and deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona. She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled. My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her. We have all been hit with a lightning bolt.”

    Following Cathriona White’s funeral, Jim Carrey shared a Tweet that included a silhouette of him with White.

    Even though Cathriona White had dated Jim Carrey, she was still legally married to a man in Ireland.

    “She had a husband, we have a husband as next of kin,” an official from the Medical Examiner’s office said. “We’re not releasing any more information on next of kin, but we do have her as married.”

    White’s stepmother and sister flew to California to arrange for her body to be returned to Ireland.

    Condolences have no doubt been sent from both countries to Jim Carrey and to Cathriona White’s family on her untimely passing.

  • Jim Carrey: Late Girlfriend Cathriona White Will Be Laid to Rest Saturday

    Jim Carrey and Cathriona White dated off and on for about three years prior to her alleged suicide on September 28th. White will be laid to rest following a funeral on Saturday in the village of Cappawhite in Tipperary, Ireland.

    Cathriona White’s body was released on Monday. Her stepmother and sister flew to L.A. to arrange for her body to be flown home to Ireland.

    Jim Carrey is reportedly focused on helping the family in any way he can.

    “Jim is doing everything he can to help,” a source says in an interview with People magazine. “He is devastated, but can’t imagine how her family must feel.”

    The family harbors no ill feelings toward Jim Carrey. They are searching for answers as to why White took her life. They will lay Cathriona to rest in the local cemetery by her late father.

    “They are all just shocked,” the source adds. “No one [from her family] is putting any blame on Jim.”

    Jim Carrey issued a statement on the day after Cathriona White’s body was discovered, saying he was “deeply saddened by the passing of my sweet Cathriona.”

    “She was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil, to whom loving and being loved was all that sparkled. My heart goes out to her family and friends and to everyone who loved and cared about her,” he added.

    White was involved with the Church of Scientology, something Jim Carrey made fun of throughout their time together. People within the organization had expressed concern over White dating the actor–likely because he didn’t follow the ways of Scientology.

    It’s uncertain if Jim Carrey plans to travel to Ireland to attend Cathriona White’s funeral.

    Suicide is probably the most difficult type of death to understand. Survivors often wonder what they could have done to have prevented the devastating actions.

    Cathriona White’s family is still awaiting a toxicology report that will likely confirm that her death was a suicide.

    Hopefully Jim Carrey and all who loved her will seek help in moving on past this terrible tragedy.

  • Jim Carrey’s Girlfriend Was Married But Separated, Sources Say

    Jim Carrey had been seeing Cathriona White on and off for a few years before she suddenly passed away last week of a suspected suicide, but according to the medical examiner, she was married to another man.

    White’s body is being held by the medical examiner’s office and will be released into the custody of her husband–whose identity has not been revealed–for a burial in Ireland.

    “She had a husband, we have a husband as next of kin. We’re not releasing any more information on next of kin, but we do have her as married,” a spokesperson from the office said.

    While sources told the Hollywood Reporter that Carrey never would have dated a married woman, others say he knew about her husband but that they were separated, with White planning to file for divorce later this year.

    “There is no way that Jim would have taken her out to public places if he thought she was married. As far as Jim was concerned, Cat was separated from her husband and was going to start divorce proceedings in December. When people are separated they date or do whatever they need to do.”

    According to the Assistant Chief Coroner, Ed Winter, White was found with several prescription bottles which were not her own, and rumors have flown around the web that at least one of them belonged to Jim Carrey. If they were his, they were taken without his knowledge, says a source.

    “There were four prescriptions: Ambien, Percocet, Propranolol and Zofran,” Winter said. “There were several notes found. There was a note addressed to Mr. Carrey.”

    While the contents of the notes have not been released–or the exact cause of death–Jim Carrey has reportedly been meeting with White’s family and is helping them through this dark time.

  • Cathriona White: Torn Between Jim Carrey And Scientology

    The real reason behind her suicide has not yet been determined, but one thing’s for certain: She could no longer handle it.

    Reportedly, Cathriona White took her own life after breaking up with actor, Jim Carrey.

    White posted a final tweet that said, “Signing off Twitter, I hope I have been a light to my nearest and dearest. [Love] to you all.” Moments later, she was found dead in her home on September 28.

    Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter told Us Weekly that there were pills seen next to her body, but they did not disclose what kind they were. Additionally, an alleged suicide note was also found with Carrey’s name on it.

    It is still not clear whether the note that White wrote was addressed to Carrey.

    Cathriona White was involved with the Church of Scientology after moving to America from Ireland and had been taking classes at their Hollywood Celebrity Centre at the time of her death.

    White was said to have been struggling in Hollywood and that she had been taking acting classes and working as a make-up artist on some TV shows. She also had an on- and-off relationship with Carrey.

    “Cathriona’s friends say that they were concerned about Cat dating Carrey,” said Ortega, a Scientology expert and friend of White’s.

    Carrey had been making fun of Scientology for years but was aware that White was involved with the controversial church since they started dating in 2012.

    “Apparently he was aware of it, but it seems they had an on again, off again relationship,” Ortega said.

    When White and Carrey got back together this year, friends of White raised their concerns with the religious group.

    But they were assured by Scientologists that they knew that Cathriona was emotionally prepared for the challenge of dating Carrey because, they said, “She had just finished the Purif and was doing her objectives.”

    “That basically means they think she can handle anything, that’s the way Scientologists think,” Ortega said.

    However, Cathriona White shocked them all with her suicide. White’s family has expressed that they wish to keep everything private.
