Buffy The Vampire Slayer star Michelle Trachtenberg died of complications from diabetes
Actress Michelle Trachtenberg died as a result of complications from diabetes, according to New York City's medical examiner.
The office said in a statement that it amended the cause and manner of death for the 39-year-old New York City native following a review of laboratory test results.
Trachtenberg, who was known for her roles in TV shows Gossip Girl, Buffy The Vampire Slayer and Six Feet Under, as well as films like Harriet the Spy, Eurotrip and 17 Again was found unconscious and unresponsive in her luxury apartment tower in Manhattan on 26 February.
Officials at the time said no foul play was suspected, and the medical examiner's office had listed her death as 'undetermined.'
Trachtenberg's family had objected to an autopsy, which the medical examiner's office honored because there was no evidence of criminality.
Sarah Michelle Gellar and Blake Lively were among the celebrities who mourned Trachtenberg when her death was announced.

Blake Lively Has Replaced Taylor Swift With ‘Real' People, Claims ‘Source'
Blake Lively and Taylor Swift's friendship was a tight-knit one. When the Grammy winner was dragged into Blake Lively's ongoing legal battle with her 'It Ends With Us' co-star Justin Baldoni, the two drifted apart. Some reports started doing the rounds that Taylor Swift had distanced herself from the actor. As per a 'source,' Blake Lively has replaced Taylor Swift with 'real' people in her life. According to the 'friend', this move comes as 'Gossip Girl' alum wants to take revenge on Taylor Swift for kicking her out of the circle. Amid the personal and professional drama, Blake Lively has lost a great deal in the process. This also includes her once close friend Taylor Swift. Their friendship dates back to 2015 and has grown strong over the years. This was until Taylor Swift was dragged into the Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively legal drama. The latter had filed the lawsuit in 2024 with harassment charges against her co-star. Now, Blake Lively is on a mission to rebuild her friend circle. This includes Gigi Hadid, Salma Hayek, Emily Blunt, Florence Welch, and Karlie Kloss. The actor emphasises the need to have 'real people' in the group who can be with her. As per RadarOnline, the source said, 'Blake's not crying over spilled champagne. Her new girl squad may not be packed with pop stars, but it's real, and that's what she needs right now.' The friend further clarified that the actor wants reliable people in her circle. Blake Lively is 'also looking to build up more high-profile bonds.' Meanwhile, they stated the actor wants to prove to Swift that 'she is still a Hollywood heavyweight.'
