Jim Carrey's comeback attempt after being blamed for ex's tragic suicide: Star, 62, ditches retirement but death of Irish make-up artist, 30, could still derail him


With 2024 marking the 30th anniversary of the start of his blockbuster career, Jim Carrey should still be a Hollywood heavyweight.

The case was thrown out and he swiftly retreated from the limelight, but after four years away from mainstream cinema, the Canadian actor began a slow and tentative return to film in 2020 with a starring role in Sonic The Hedgehog, the first of three animated adventures based around the escapades of Sega's greatest export. The note written on her iPad was discovered by lawyers working on behalf of her mother Brigid Sweetman, and estranged husband, Mark Burton, who filed a wrongful death lawsuit against Carrey, saying he gave her the pills to kill herself after obtaining them in a false name and giving her STDs. In response to her family's legal action, Carrey then launched a counter lawsuit, dropping the bombshell that he had already paid Cathriona an undisclosed sum of money in 2013 to settle her STD claims, while demanding her mother and husband pay him back three times the original settlement.
