The Halloween actress mentioned Lauren’s mental health struggles: “Not that long ago, she started to suffer from debilitating depression.
“She had always been a happy person. How did this happen? All who loved her rallied around her and did everything that could be done to get her help.
She continued: “But the system is broken. The system made it impossible to get her the help she needed.”
In conclusion, Kyle promised to “do whatever it takes to try and help change the laws that are in place that prevent people from getting the help they need.”
