Daniel Mickelson’s cause of death has been revealed as a cocaine and fentanyl overdose.
According to official records obtained by Radar, the results of the late actor’s toxicology results were released months after his traffic death.
As we first reported, the actor passed away unexpectedly on June 4, 2021.
Official records show he died at a "residence" in Los Angeles. At the time, the medical examiner was unaware of any medical conditions affecting the actor.
The official report has yet to be released by the Los Angeles County Coroner’s Office but the initial findings have been posted.
Following his death, Kaia Gerber posted an emotional tribute writing, “remember that time we sat on the couch and spent the whole day coming up with our own secret language that we continued to speak every time we saw each other. I wish we could go back there. I wish we were still talking in sentences that probably annoyed everyone else but made us crack up every time."
"I wish I was still sitting on my bathroom floor FaceTiming you, because that was the only place I had wifi and I never wanted to miss a call from you. Thank you for being the reason for so much laughter and happiness in the world. It won't be the same without you here. I love you Daniel,” she ended.
Daniel’s sister Meredith Mickelson also posted a heartbreaking message about her brother. She said, “My heart is shattered & to write this feels so wrong and i don’t even know what to say. Yesterday i lost my brother, best friend & the other half of my heart.” “There wasn’t a person i loved more on this earth. theres no words that can do him justice that i could write. to know him was to love him.”
His last post on Instagram was on June 28, only days before he accidentally overdosed.
Daniel was a rising actor who had a small part in 2019's The Killer Clown Meets The Candy Man.
