It was learnt she'd had a history of depression.
In 2012, she attempted suicide following an ongoing tirade of abuse on Twitter and had been admitted to a Sydney hospital.
The Sun-Herald newspaper in Sydney reported Sunday that her body was found only minutes before her luxury waterside apartment was due to be sold at auction.
Police said investigations into her death were continuing though there were no suspicious circumstances.
