Actress Michelle Trachtenberg, renowned for her roles in Buffy - The Vampire Slayer and Gossip Girl, passed away in February 2024. The news sent shockwaves throughout the world, causing mourning not only among her fans but also in the film and television industry.

Trachtenberg's death was due to complications from diabetes mellitus, as confirmed by the New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner. The exact type of diabetes (type 1 or type 2) has not been specified in the available information.

Interestingly, Trachtenberg had undergone a liver transplant before her death, but the cause of this transplant remains unclear. Early speculation about her death involving liver transplant complications was not confirmed, and no official autopsy was performed due to her family's religious objections.

In the months leading up to her death, Trachtenberg had been the subject of discussions due to her changed appearance. However, she had not spoken publicly about any health issues during her lifetime. In January 2024, she responded to negative comments on social media about her significant weight loss without providing any background information.

Trachtenberg became internationally famous for her role as Dawn Summers in Buffy - The Vampire Slayer. She was also known for her role in Gossip Girl, among other shows.

The news of Trachtenberg's death was reported by the US celebrity news portal TMZ, citing the responsible medical examiner. Despite the tragic circumstances, her family's decision to decline an autopsy has been respected, and the investigation into her death is now considered closed.
