Adult movie star August Ames has died aged 23, her husband has confirmed. August, who was born in Canada, passed away in Camarillo, California, on Tuesday morning from suicide.
Her cause of death was confirmed by the Ventura County Medical Examiner as asphyxiation due to hanging. Her real name was Mercedes Grabowski.
Her devastated husband Kevin Moore said: “She was the kindest person I ever knew and she meant the world to me.
Friends of the star, who had appeared in more than 270 X-rated movies, told The Blast that August had suffered from long-term depression and may have taken her own life.
Just 48 hours earlier, she had found herself embroiled in a social media row after she said she had reservations about working with a porn star who had previously appeared in gay porn.
On December 3 she wrote: "Whichever (lady) performer is replacing me tomorrow... you’re shooting with a guy who has shot gay porn, just to let cha know. BS is all I can say Do agents really not care about who they’re representing?"
When a Twitter user wrote to her saying, "So you're homophobic?" she replied: "NOT homophobic. Most girls don’t shoot with guys who have shot gay porn, for safety.
"That’s just how it is with me. I’m not putting my body at risk, i don’t know what they do in their private lives."
