What was Julee Cruise's cause of death?

Unfortunately, a showed cause of death for Julee has no longer been shared as of the time of writing.

Her death was introduced by means of her husband, Edward Grinnan, who wrote a post on Facebook, in keeping with The Guardian, that learn: "She left this realm on her own terms. No regrets. She is at peace … I played her [B-52s song] 'Roam' during her transition. Now she will roam forever. Rest in peace, my love." (Julee had performed as a stand-in for the B-52s' Cindy Wilson right through their tours from 1992 to 1999, in line with Rolling Stone.)

Although we can't ascertain Julee's cause of death, there may be some context into her medical history after we have a look back at her past Facebook posts. One post from 2018 sees Julee reveal that she was diagnosed with lupus.

"I have systemic lupus," she wrote at the time. "... [M]y superstar doctor, and he really is, has tried his best. I can hardly walk, and now it's difficult to stand. I can't walk Gracie anymore. My spine is crumbling and pinching on nerves."

During a 2018 interview with Pitchfork, Julee stated that dealing with lupus and steroids had left her with the "bones of an 85-year-old woman at 33" and that she needed to take "mega amounts" of anti-inflammatory drugs to numb the ache.

"It's going to give me liver cancer before I ever die of kidney failure from lupus," she instructed the newsletter. "I’m f---ed either way, but I still look great [laughs]."

Our ideas are with Julee's family, pals, and fans right through this tough time.
