In the emotional, handwritten note,
Nancy said that Roberts’ abuse had been so bad that ‘I burst into tears because I wake up’.
Nancy died of a drug overdose
on February 9 at the age of 37. Her death was ruled a suicide.
The former production assistant on the TV show Glee drowned in a bath surrounded by a mixture of
nonprescription and prescription pills, according to the Los Angeles County Coroner. Her fiance John Dilbeck and his family are now engaged in a bitter legal battle
with Pretty Woman star Roberts and her mother Betty for control of Nancy's estate.
John and his brother Conner say the fight is the latest example of how Roberts tried to manipulate Nancy’s life and control everything. At the center of the row is a suicide note which was found at the scene of Nancy’s death - which can now be revealed for the first time.
In the note Nancy begins by saying that ‘if anything happens to me’ then John gets ‘whatever he wants of my possessions’ including their dog Lucy.
She writes: ‘My mother and so-called ‘siblings’ get nothing except the memory that they are the ones that drove me into the deepest depression I’ve ever been in.
