Daveigh Chase\u2019s official cause of death has been confirmed.<\/p>\n

The \u201cRing\u201d star\u2019s primary cause of death was listed as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS), according to a Los Angeles County Medical Examiner report obtained by Page Six Monday.<\/p>\n

Also listed was chronic polysubstance use, which is the use of more than one drug in a short period of time, per Cleveland Clinic.<\/p>\n

Chase\u2019s manner of death was determined to be natural. Us Weekly was the first to report the news.<\/p>\n

The actress died June 16 after she was diagnosed with meningitis and several \u201cserious\u201d blood infections that turned her body septic and caused it to shut down, according to her boyfriend Roy Hernandez. She was 35 years old.<\/p>\n

According to TMZ, she was admitted to a Los Angeles hospital earlier that month because of malnutrition.<\/p>\n

In the days leading up to her death, Hernandez had created a GoFundMe fundraiser to help the late actress \u201cfind comfort and peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cDaveigh Chase, my girlfriend, has always been a light in my life. Many people know her as a talented childhood actor from \u2018Lilo & Stitch,\u2019 \u2018Spirited Away,\u2019 and \u2018Donnie Darko.\u2019 But behind the scenes, she\u2019s faced more than her share of hardship,\u201d Hernandez shared in the campaign\u2019s bio. <\/p>\n

\u201cAfter a difficult childhood and a painful falling out with her family, Daveigh was bullied and struggled to find safety and happiness in downtown LA. When we met, I promised to protect her and give her the love and comfort she deserved. Together, we found moments of happiness and hope.\u201d<\/p>\n

At the time of the campaign\u2019s creation, Chase\u2019s condition had \u201cbecome critical,\u201d with doctors telling Hernandez \u201cshe may not have much time left.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAll she ever wanted was a place where we could live together, feel safe, and be happy. Now, more than ever, I want to give her that sense of home and peace in her final days,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

Chase became a household name in 2002 when she landed leading roles in Disney\u2019s \u201cLilo & Stitch\u201d and the horror film \u201cThe Ring.\u201d <\/p>\n

The latter movie earned her an MTV Movie Award for Best Villain. Her additional credits include \u201cHBO\u2019s \u201cBig Love\u201d as Rhonda Volmer, \u201cDonnie Darko,\u201d \u201cSabrina the Teenage Witch,\u201d \u201cBeethoven\u2019s 5th,\u201d \u201cER,\u201d \u201cMercy\u201d and more.<\/p>\n

She eventually stepped away from the spotlight after her final onscreen appearance in 2016\u2019s \u201cAmerican Romance.\u201d<\/p>\n
