While he has expressed his grief over the sudden passing of his estranged daughter Brittany Murphy, there is no Angelo Bertolotti name found in .

Just Married" star was just two years old, had not seen the actress since 2006. He himself has admitted the fact to Us Magazine following Murphy's death. Later on, he revealed that he was not invited to the actress' private funeral, adding that even if he was invited he won't attend due to his grief.
The exclusion of Angelo Bertolotti's name from the document wasn't the only interesting piece of information uncovered. The death certificate also named "Tayebe Pajooh, cousin" who resides in North Carolina as "INFORMANT", the person who provides Murphy's vital statistics and information to the mortuary.

Murphy's cause of death is listed in the document as "deferred" and her manner of death is noted as "pending investigation". The Los Angeles County Coroner is still waiting for the result of toxicology and tissue tests.

Before being rushed to the hospital, she was found by her mother collapsed in the shower. She was laid to rest at Forest Lawn Memorial Park on Christmas Eve, December 24 after .
