The half-sister of actress Drew Barrymore, Jessica Barrymore, has been found dead in National City, California.
Reported by San Diego’s KGTV, a local resident noticed that her body was in a car that was blocking her driveway at around 6am on Tuesday. When the woman approached the car to ask the 47 year old woman if everything was okay, she found that Barrymore did not have a pulse and that there were pills scattered around the car. According to the woman, Marta Lopez, Barrymore was lying on the steering wheel and had an energy drink container in between her legs.
Drew and Jessica Barrymore are the daughters of actor John Drew Barrymore, who died in 2004. They both have different mothers. Jessica’s mother is Nina Wayne, an actress and the actor’s fourth wife. Drew’s mother is Jaid Mako, who was married to her father for 13 years.
Drew, who is nine years older than Jessica and only knew her for a short while, issued a statement a few hours after the release of the news, saying “I wish her and her loved ones as much peace as possible and I’m so incredibly sorry for their loss.”
