The cause of death of Iconic Hollywood star Betty White has been made public.

TMZ reports that the “Golden Girls” star, who passed away on 31st December at age 99, died due to a cerebrovascular accident, according to her death certificate.

A cerebrovascular accident, commonly known as a stroke, is a loss of blood flow to part of the brain, which damages brain tissue. It is typically caused by blood clots and broken blood vessels in the brain.

According to the death certificate, White suffered a stroke six days before her death.

Meanwhile, White’s longtime agent and friend Jeff Witjas also told PEOPLE: “Betty passed in her sleep peacefully without pain. To me this is the most important thing and brings me comfort as her dear friend. Anything else is private to Betty.”

“People are saying her death was related to getting a booster shot three days earlier but that is not true,” Witjas said in a statement to PEOPLE on 3rd January. “She died of natural causes. Her death should not be politicized, that is not the life she lived.”

Betty White would have clocked a 100 years old on 17th January 2021.
