Actress Michelle Trachtenberg, known for a wide range of TV and film roles including in “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Gossip Girl,” has died at the age of 39, sources told The Post.
Trachtenberg was found by her mother around 8 a.m. Wednesday at One Columbus Place, a 51-story luxury apartment complex in Manhattan’s Central Park South neighborhood, the sources said.
The actress recently underwent a liver transplant and died of natural causes, according to the sources.
The phrase “natural causes” here refers to it being a medical reason not caused by a murder, accident, or suicide, just the body failing for whatever other reason.
That makes sense to me. I’m just not used to hearing it for anything but old age, I guess. It would also hit my ear weird if they used that phrasing for cancer, heart failure, stroke, etc.
