Prince died of a drug overdose, it has been confirmed.The 57-year-old singer - who was cremated days after his death on April 21 - passed away after an opioid overdose, a law-enforcement official has told press anonymously.
He was found slumped in a lift at his Paisley Park estate, close to Minneapolis.
Investigators had been reviewing whether Prince died of an overdose and have been questioning a doctor who was prescribing him drugs in the weeks before his death.
No cause of death has officially been revealed by the Midwest Medical Examiner's Office, which told Entertainment Tonight there is "nothing to share at this time."
Dr. Michael Todd Schulenberg - who specialises in family medicine - is currently under investigation after a search warrant carried out on May 5 discovered he'd treated the late singer on April 7 and April 20.
The police affidavit, which was obtained by the Los Angeles Times, states Dr. Schulenberg performed tests and prescribed drugs on both occasions for a mystery ailment.
