The coroner's report proved he appeared to have alcohol in his system but had not died of an alcohol overdose.

The medical examiner also ruled Kristoff's death an "accident."

In 2017, Kristoff was hospitalized for a 72-hour psychiatric evaluation after allegedly threatening to shoot himself.

After his passing last month, sources spilled to RadarOnline.com that the The Young & The Restless star never recovered from the pain of losing his son, Julian, whom he shared with his ex, Mia St. John.
