When ‘8 Mile’ and ‘Just Married’ fame Brittany Murphy passed away out of the blue in December 2009, the world of Hollywood was shaken to its core while the media spread rumors and allegations about her relationship with her husband, Simon Monjack. The mysterious case of Brittany’s death is the primary focus of ‘HBO Max’s ‘What Happened, Brittany Murphy?,’ a two-part docuseries that also covers aspects of her life and acting career. Among the people who make an appearance on the show is Simon’s mother, Linda Monjack, who sternly defended her son and denied the allegations against him.
Linda Monjack Spoke in Favor of Simon Monjack Even After His Demise
On March 9, 1970, Linda Monjack and her late husband, William, gave birth to Simon Monjack in Hillingdon, Middlesex. Unfortunately, William died of a brain tumor in 1986, leaving Linda to care for their son alone. She watched her son gain stardom as he got into the entertainment industry and became a screenwriter. In April 2007, he got married to the Hollywood star Brittany Murphy, who reportedly died of pneumonia on December 20, 2009, at their Hollywood Hills residence. Following the tragedy, Linda had her son’s back and supported him when rumors and accusations were thrown at him by the media and public.
She was devastated when he, too, died of pneumonia on May 23, 2010, in the same Hollywood Hills house. A couple of months later, it was alleged that Simon had withdrawn a large amount of money from Brittany’s account after her demise. Defending her son, she claimed that there seemed to be financial problems even before the deaths as Sharon, Brittany’s mother, had been asking for money from her friends. When the late actress’ business manager revealed that large sums of money were being withdrawn from her account, Linda blamed it on the financial issue that Sharon was facing at the time. As for the cause of the death of her son and daughter-in-law, she claimed that she noticed black mold in the couple’s bedroom.
