HOLLYWOOD, Calif. — Johnson & Johnson heiress Casey Johnson, reality-TV star Tila Tequila's fiancee, was found dead Monday morning in Los Angeles, TMZ reports. She was 30.

Born September 24, 1979, in New York, Casey Johnson was the daughter of New York Jets owner and philanthropist Robert Wood "Woody" Johnson IV and his ex-wife, socialite Sale Johnson. She was also the great-great-granddaughter of Robert Wood Johnson I, co-founder of the Johnson & Johnson company.

Police officials said a preliminary investigation by homicide investigators found nothing to suggest anything other than a death from natural causes.

An autopsy will be performed on Johnson today or Wednesday but an announcement on the cause of death could be deferred four to six weeks, pending the outcome of toxicology tests, said Ed Winter, a spokesman for the Los Angeles County coroner's office.

Winter said his office had received information that Johnson had a history of diabetes but added, "We are still conducting our investigation."

Johnson also has a reported history of drug use and has been in rehab several times.
