Jim Carrey’s Lawyer Bashes New Lawsuit That Claims the Actor Gave Late Girlfriend STDs

Date:

Jim Carrey’s attorney is bashing a new lawsuit that claims the actor gave his late girlfriend, Cathriona White, three types of Sexually Transmitted Diseases in 2013.

Cathriona White died at the age of 30 due to a drug overdose. The Los Angeles County Coroner’s office ruled it a suicide.

Cathriona White’s estranged husband, Mark Burton, initially filed a lawsuit on Monday, claiming that Carrey provided her the prescription drugs that contributed to her death. Burton later revised those documents on Thursday. Now Burton alleges Carrey gave her STDs.

Carrey’s lawyer Marty Singer called the latest claims a “Transparent shakedown.”

Singer claimed that text messages between Carrey and White will provide that the allegations are false. “The alleged text messages referred to were sent in 2013, yet in November of 2014, Ms. White sought out my client and asked him to continue a serious relationship. If he had engaged in the alleged horrible conduct, why would she reach out and request that they continue to stay together?” he told Us. “In fact, they were even working out a cohabitation agreement, as they were living together for the most part up until her death.”

Jim Carrey and Cathriona White dated off and on from 2012 to 2015 and broke up one week before she passed away. She left him a suicide note, and later he helped carry her coffin at her funeral.
