Jim Carrey’s ex-girlfriend accused him of introducing her to ‘cocaine, mental abuse and disease’ before suicide

Actor Jim Carrey denied the accusations and has filed a counter suit accusing Ms White's family of extortion

An incriminating note written on Cathriona White’s iPad two years before her suicide has accused Jim Carrey of giving her herpes and introducing her to drugs.

The message is part of a wrongful death lawsuit brought against the actor by Ms White’s family.

The note, written by Carrey’s former girlfriend, was brought to light by lawyers acting on behalf of her family.

In the distraught message, Ms White accuses the actor of ruining her life, saying “you gave me hsv and hpv, I want you to apologise for it because you care enough to. I want you to understand that however little a thing that seems to you, it ruins a girl’s life.

“You introduced me to cocaine, prostitutes, mental abuse and disease.”

She described in more detail her state of mind: “You threw me away when you absorbed anything worthwhile that was left of me.”

“Before you, I might not have had very much but I had respect, I was a happy person.”

It is not known whether Ms White sent the note, obtained by the Daily Mail, to Mr Carrey before she committed suicide.

The wrongful death suit, filed by Marc Burton, Ms White’s ex-husband claims that Carrey illegally obtained “highly addictive and, in this case, deadly” drugs under the pseudonym of Arthur King. According to Variety, Ms White used these drugs to commit suicide.

On Friday, the 55-year-old actor filed a counter-suit accusing them of extortion. Carrey described Ms White as a “beautiful but immature and emotionally damaged woman” in his lawsuit.

The Ace Ventura actor repudiates the accusation that he gave her an STD, saying Ms White contracted it before they started a relationship.

Carrey did admit that he paid her an undisclosed amount of money in 2013 to stop Ms White from revealing her story that she had contracted herpes from him.

He said his former girlfriend committed suicide in 2015 because she was guilty about taking the money.

“I made the mistake three years ago of giving in and settling false claims made against me,” he said.

The actor’s lawyers stated in his counter suit that the Irish make-up artist had “threatened to go to the press” with the allegation Carrey had given her STDs, but would keep silent if he gave her “millions of dollars”.

Michael Avenatti, representing Ms White’s family, told People that the “note, written in Cat’s own words, shows the world how Jim Carrey treated her while she was alive and the depths of his destructive behaviour. We look forward to trying our case to a Los Angeles jury.”
