Angus Cloud’s mother has insisted he ‘did not intend’ to take his own life.
The Euphoria actor was found dead on July 31 aged 25.
The actor – who played Fezco in the HBO drama starring Zendaya and Jacob Elordi – died at his family’s home in Oakland.
Cloud was said to be in ‘deep grief’ over the death of his father a few weeks before.
But this week, Cloud’s mum Lisa said her son’s final day was ‘a joyful one’ and added ‘[it’s] abundantly clear’ he wasn’t considering suicide.
She wrote on Facebook: ‘Friends, I want you all to know I appreciate your love for my family at this shattered time.

‘I also want you to know that although my son was in deep grief about his father’s untimely death from mesothelioma, his last day was a joyful one.’
Lisa went on: ‘He was reorganizing his room and placing items around the house with intent to stay a while in the home he loved.
‘He spoke of his intent to help provide for his sisters at college, and also help his mom emotionally and financially.’
Lisa then clarified: ‘He did not intend to end his life. When we hugged goodnight we said how much we loved each other and he said he would see me in the morning [sic].’
Lisa admitted it is possible that a post-mortem examination may find Cloud overdosed ‘accidentally and tragically’.

She continued: ‘I don’t know if or what he may have put in his body after that. I only know that he put his head on the desk where he was working on art projects, fell asleep and didn’t wake up.
‘We may find out that he overdosed accidentally and tragically, but it’s abundantly clear that he did not intend to check out of this world.
‘His struggles were real. He gave and received so much love and support to and from his tribe.

‘His work in euphoria became a lightning rod for his generation and opened up a conversation about compassion, loyalty, acceptance and love.’
The grieving mum continued: ‘His head injury 10 years ago miraculously didn’t result in death as it almost always does.
‘He was given 10 bonus years and filled them with creativity and love.
‘Social media posts have suggested his death was intentional. I want you to know that is not the case.’
Lisa’s mum urged fans to make small gestures to honour Cloud’s memory.
She concluded: ‘To honor his memory, please make random acts of kindness part of your daily life. Bless your hearts.’
