MONJACK’S MOTHER ACCUSES SHARON MURPHY OF FAILING TO HELP
SIMON MONJACK’s mother has accused BRITTANY MURPHY’s mum SHARON of ignori ng her pleas to call a doctor in the hours before the filmmaker’s death.
Sharon Murphy found the director unconscious at the Hollywood Hills hom e he once shared with his late wife last month (May10). Paramedics determ ined he had suffered a cardiac arrest and pronounced him dead at the scen e. The Clueless star died in December (09) after collapsing at the same p roperty.
Monjack’s mother Linda has now taken aim at Sharon - alleging she plead ed with her to get Monjack medical help because she was so concerned abou t him on the night before he passed away.
Linda Monjack claims she spoke to Sharon and ordered her to get him to a hospital.
She tells Britain’s Daily Mail, "I’d pleaded with Sharon over and over during those last hours to get medical help, to get him to a hospital, bu t she didn’t… I’d call and he wasn’t even able to respond. It was at th is point that I demanded to speak to Sharon, and I told her, ‘Please, ple ase call the doctor. Get him to hospital. Please just get him some help’.
She told me that she’d ‘been through this before’ and that Simon was ove r the worse.
"I phoned again at 4am and Sharon told me Simon had vomited up a black substance and his eyes had been rolling in his head. I asked her if he wa s unconscious, but she told me he was sleeping. At 7am she called, sobbin g hysterically, saying Simon was dead. I cannot describe the pain." But Sharon Murphy’s publicist, Roger Neal, has slammed Monjack’s accusa tions, insisting she did everything she could to help the filmmaker.
He says, "When she found Simon, he had already passed away. The moment she found him, she called 911 for help. Sharon loved Simon like a son, an d he loved her like a mom. They had a close mother-son relationship. She is devastated."
