Tragedy as Carrey girlfriend commits suicide ‘after split’

THE Irish girlfriend of Hollywood megastar Jim Carrey has been found dead after the couple reportedly split just days ago.

Cathriona White, 30, met Carrey, 53, in 2012.

The former make-up artist was found dead at her LA apartment on Monday night after posting a worrying string of messages on her social media accounts in the past week.

On Thursday Cathriona, from County Tipperary, wrote: “Signing off Twitter, I hope I have been a light to my nearest and dearest. [Love and peace] to yo all”
And on Wednesday she quoted the poet W B Yeats on her Instagram account: “Faeries, come take me out of this dull world, For I would ride with you upon the wind, Run on the top of the dishevelled tide, And dance upon the mountains like a flame.”

Reports say Cathriona left a suicide note addressed to Carrey with “references to their break up on Thursday”.

It is believed she was discovered by two friends after taking an overdose.

Cathriona and Carrey, who has been married twice, were first spotted together in late 2012 when they are believed to have begun dating for six months.

The dad-of-one said in March 2013: “I did go out with an Irish girl. We’re not seeing each other any more. But she is lovely.”

The pair rekindled their romance in May this year when they were spotted out together holding hands in New York.
