Ashley Mattingly, Playboy's Miss March 2011, has died, reports TMZ. The 33-year-old was found unresponsive in her home in Austin, Texas.
Her sister Christy and twin brother Billy told the site that Ashley took her own life on Wednesday. She was discovered on Friday after a concerned friend called authorities asking for a welfare check.
Mattingly reportedly left a suicide note, which police have kept as part of their investigation.
Her siblings said her state's Safer at Home order had been hard on Ashley. She had adopted a golden retriever puppy for comfort, and the dog is now with family.
In 2012, Ashley was involved in a domestic dispute with her boyfriend Lane Garrison. She accused the “Prison Break” star of slapping her. He denied hurting her, but pleaded no contest to misdemeanor domestic battery.
A few years later, in 2016, Mattingly was charged with DUI after she drove a golf cart into four parked cars.
