Details of the heartbreaking last few days lived by Hollywood icon Gene Hackman are emerging in the wake of authorities confirming a cause of death for both the actor and his wife, classical pianist Betsy Arakawa.
The pair were found dead at their home in Santa Fe, New Mexico last month, prompting all manner of conspiracy theories and wild speculation.
Though it was initially reported that foul play was not suspected in the deaths of the couple – married more than 30 years – later updates suggested that aspects of the scene had been peculiar enough to warrant a full investigation.
