done on samples taken when the “Star Wars” actress arrived at a Los Angeles hospital.

Coroner’s officials ruled Fisher died from sleep apnea and a combinatio­n of other factors.

Monday’s full report also states that while heroin is detectable in the system for a briefer period of time, investigat­ors could not determine when Fisher took it or the ecstasy. Toxicology tests also found other opiates in Fisher’s system, including morphine, although the report states the morphine could have been a byproduct of heroin.

Among the factors that contribute­d to Fisher’s death was buildup of fatty tissue in the walls of her arteries, the coroner’s office said last week.

Married ballet stars Tiler Peck, Robert Fairchild split

NEW YORK » The real-life fairy tale marriage of ballet stars Robert Fairchild and Tiler Peck is over.

Representa­tives for the New York City Ballet principal dancers tell The Associated Press the couple is splitting: “We can confirm that Tiler and Robbie have decided to part ways. They wish nothing but the best for each other as they move forward into their next phases, personally and profession­ally.” The couple married in June 2014. Peck, who has been on Broadway in the 2014 revival of “On the Town” and in “The Music Man,” starred in the Susan Stroman-led musical “Little Dancer” in Washington, D.C., while Fairchild went to Paris and then Broadway in “An American in Paris.”

Peck, born in Bakersfiel­d, California, has been a guest on “Dancing With the Stars” and has designed leotards, skirts and tunics for Body Wrappers and received the 2016 Dance Magazine Award.

Both returned to New York City Ballet and danced together in Christophe­r Wheeldon’s ballet “American Rhapsody.” They have also danced together in Wheeldon’s “A Place for Us” and a New York Philharmon­ic’s production of “Carousel.”
