“One day, high as a kite, she drove Billie and a few of Billie’s friends to a nearby mall for a good old over-the-top shopping fix,” Todd explained.
But Carrie’s “closest allies” knew the actress wasn’t in the right state of mind and called the Billie’s father, Bryan Lourd.

On Dec. 28, 2016, Reynolds passed away from a stroke at the age of 84. The mother-daughter duo were buried at the same grave site in Burbank, California.
