Lilo & Stitch Star Daveigh Chase’s Cause of Death Revealed | E! News
Daveigh Chase, who voiced Lilo in 2002’s Lilo & Stitch, died from acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), with substance abuse considered a “significant condition” contributing to her death, according to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner records viewed by E! News. The 35-year-old (real name Daveigh Schwallier) died in the hospital, with officials listing her manner of death as natural. The Ring star’s boyfriend Roy Hernandez previously shared that Chase was battling meningitis and a blood infection before her death, telling TMZ her organs ultimately shut down after developing sepsis.

She was so good in Big Love! RIP
Rest in peace ๐ ๐๏ธ
Get tested for free people. She didn't have to go so soon that way. RIP Ms Chase.
Couldnโt they at least get someone who knew how to pronounce her name correctly to do this? Also hope and home arenโt the same word.
Itโs like they werenโt even trying.
she made our childhood fun….rip
Her name was pronounced dah – VAY.
I'm sorry to hear that
Victim of Diddy
Another victim of the sick and twisted Hollywood "CULTure". They use up people and then destroy them. I cannot wait until that useless industry destroys itself. She was very beautiful and talented. So sad. RIP, lovely lady.
She died of sepsis, her organs shut down. Septic shock.. from blood infection and meningitis. RIP Daveigh..
Just when I think things couldn't have been more brutal for this beautiful young lady๐God bless the man who helped her with a "peaceful" transition. Hold your loved ones close and tell them you love them until they get sick of hearing it ๐ฉท๐ฉท๐ฉต๐
Iโll always remember her cute little face when she said โ whatโs a fuckassโ
In other words, the Darwin Effect…
NOBODY REALLY CARES
Lord have mercy ๐
The last actor I can recall publicly reported to have died in a similar situation was Rick Aviles.
Some 30 years back, his acting career was still going strong with appearances in GHOST, THE SAINTS OF FORT WASHINGTON, WATERWORLD, STEPHEN KING'S THE STAND, CARLITO'S WAY.
Come to find out, his AIDS death was courtesy of contracting HIV from tainted needles! His last official film credit was voicing one of the animated cockroachs in MTV'S JOE'S APARTMENT. Rest In Peace.โค
