Michelle Trachtenberg, known for her significant roles in “Buffy against vampires” and “Gossip Girl”, died on February 26 at the age of 39 in New York. Almost two months after his death, the circumstances of his death were officially established, according to NBC News.

In the days following her disappearance, Michelle Trachtenberg’s family had opposed an autopsy for religious reasons. It was only after laboratory analyzes that the cause of her death could be confirmed: the actress died due to complications related to her diabetes.
Health weakened by a liver transplant
According to information relayed by the American press, Michelle Trachtenberg had recently undergone a liver transplant, an operation which had accompanied many complications. She also spent a long time in the hospital shortly before her death.
If Michelle Trachtenberg had never publicly mentioned her health problems, her fans have been worried for several months of her emaciation on social networks. A neighbor, Ariana Rodriguez, says she observed a disturbing change in the actress: “She seemed to be less and less. She had become very thin”she says. However, Michelle Trachtenberg continued to be optimistic, declaring shortly before her disappearance that she was “happy and healthy”.
