‘Versailles’ daughter died of accidental overdose
Ms Siegel was the daughter of David and Jackie Siegel, stars of 2012 reality show The Queen of Versailles.
People magazine reports that Victoria died of “acute methadone and sertraline toxicity”. The examination found significant concentration of both drugs.
A message left with the attorney seeking comment on the autopsy’s release was not immediately returned.
When her daughter was laid to rest in mid-June, Jackie Siegel became the target of critics when, in a tight, black outfit with a plunging neckline, she was photographed taking pictures of the coffin. “One of the bedrooms was going to be hers”, he says.
The spokesperson said that Victoria had been working to overcome her addiction, but on the morning of her death, she allegedly received hurtful texts sent from her boyfriend’s phone that had been written by his ex.
“It’s my last moment ever to remember my daughter and that day”, she said, denying that she had been taking a selfie, as had been rumored.
David Siegel is the founder of Orlando-based Westgate Resorts. The movie chronicled their extravagant lifestyle, including an effort to build a 90,000-square-foot mansion. I know there’s no book what you should and shouldn’t do at a funeral. In her memory, the family has established the Victoria Siegel Foundation to help teens dealing with addiction.
David said: “We’re going to win this battle”.
He added it was possible this cyberbullying is what drove her to take drugs. “I have been with the family starting from the very first moment they learned of Victoria’s death and I can tell you that she has cried… a lot…and has been on an emotional roller[coaster]”, he said.
Ms Nebab defended the Siegels against critics who have cast harsh judgment on the couple’s “no rules” approach to parenting and Jackie’s own admission that her house is so large that sometimes she can ‘go for days without seeing some kids.’.
