Adult film star Kylie Page, who died at the age of 28 from a suspected accidental drug overdose, had just reached 60 days of sobriety five days before the tragedy, according to a report.
Page, whose legal name was Kylie Pylant, had been taking her AA meetings seriously and even stepped up to lead some sessions herself, sources told TMZ.
Her family knew about her struggles with addiction long before she rose to stardom after being featured in a 2017 Netflix mini-series about the porn industry where she opened up about her battle.
Page dabbled in a variety of different drugs since she was a teenager, TMZ reported, and she eventually went to rehab and lived in a sober house to get back on the right track.
The film star previously lost two of her uncles to addiction, sources told the outlet.
Page was found dead in her Hollywood home on June 25. Investigators at the scene found slews of drug paraphernalia around her home, including fentanyl. Law enforcement sources added that there were also sexual photos of her and various men strewn about.
No official cause of death has been determined, according to the County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner, but authorities don’t suspect any foul play.
During her nine years in the industry, Page starred in more than 200 adult films associated with some of the biggest names in porn including Vixen Media and Brazzers.
Her family set up a GoFundMe to help raise money to cover funeral expenses, including transporting Page’s body from California to the family’s home in the Midwest.
“Kylie was a daughter who loved hard, a sister who never let go, and a friend who showed up without being asked,” the fundraising page said. “She was the kind of person who made you feel like family — no matter who you were.
“We lost her too soon, and now her family is trying to bring her home from California to the Midwest — to lay her to rest surrounded by friends and family.”
Page’s body has been released, according to the LA medical examiner.
