Brittany Murphy’s widower Simon Monjack died after suffering from pneumonia and anaemia, which claimed the actress' life in December.

The Clueless star passed away on December 20 last year, with pneumonia listed as the primary cause of death. Anaemia and "multiple drug intoxication" were also stated as contributing factors.

Monjack was found unconscious at the Hollywood Hills home he once shared with Murphy in May - and the final coroner's report eerily states the British filmmaker died from acute pneumonia and severe anaemia, according to TMZ.com.

Traces of prescription drugs were also found in his system but the Los Angeles County Coroner ruled it was not enough to be fatal.
