New reporting says a death certificate has provided additional information about the death of Chris Anne Affleck, the mother of actors Ben and Casey Affleck. She died on June 2 after passing away at Ben Affleck’s home in Los Angeles.

The document, cited in entertainment coverage, revealed the cause of death and added new detail to what had previously been a private family loss. The trimmed report did not include the full wording of the certificate, but it made clear that official records have now clarified how she died.

Chris Anne Affleck was identified as a former teacher as well as the mother of the two actors. Because she was closely connected to Ben and Casey Affleck, the update quickly drew attention across celebrity news outlets.

While the death certificate answers a key question about her passing, the news remains centered on the Affleck family’s bereavement. Based on the limited report available, no broader statement or additional context was included beyond the newly disclosed official detail.
