Harry Morton died from an irregular heartbeat, TMZ has reported.
That is according to the L.A. County Coroner’s autopsy findings, obtained by the outlet, which also disclosed no drugs or alcohol were present in his system at the time of his death. His condition, clinically referred to as cardiac arrhythmia, is the result of a hardening of the arteries.
Preliminary tests completed in November indicated that the late Pink Taco founder suffered from an undiagnosed coronary artery disease with a mildly enlarged heart.
Morton, who was 38, died at his $25 million home in California. As Page Six reported, he had dined with his family the day before his death and seemed in good spirits. His grandfather, Arnie Morton, is the co-founder of the famed Morton’s Steakhouse chain.
“We are devastated by the loss of our beloved son, brother and friend,” the family told Page Six in a statement at the time. “Harry was the brightest light in all our lives and his spirit will live on forever.”
