Nearly two months after Angus Cloud’s death, the late actor’s loved ones are opening up about the final days leading up to his devastating loss, and his “deep troubles” battling addiction.
In an interview with People, the late “Euphoria” star’s mother, Lisa Cloud, emotionally recalled finding her son slouched over his bedroom desk, where he often fell asleep in his chair, creating art. As she approached her son to say good morning, she quickly realized something wasn’t right.
“I started shaking him and screaming. I pushed him hard, and he fell on the floor. I tried to resuscitate him — mouth to mouth — and I was compressing him,” she tearfully recounted. “I was screaming for my neighbour because I didn’t want to leave him and call 911 and I just kept at it until they took him away.
“I miss him so much. He was the love of my life,...

The July death of actor Angus Cloud has been ruled an accidental overdose.
The “Euphoria” actor had taken a lethal combination of fentanyl, cocaine, methamphetamine, according to the Alameda County Coroner, which shared its report with multiple media outlets on Thursday.
The 25-year-old had been despondent after the death of his father. He was found dead at his family home in Oakland, California on July 31.
His mother Lisa told first responders that Cloud did not have a pulse and that his condition was due to “a possible overdose.” She later clarified that Angus “did not die by suicide,” as had been widely reported.
