Another clue inside the tragic suicide of L'Wren Scott has come to light: the model turned fashion designer, who was found dead yesterday of an apparent suicide in NYC, was reportedly in debt at the time she died.  

Bonnie Fuller's Hollywood Life broke the news: the girlfriend of Mick Jagger may have seemed successful to the outside world, but in reality, her company was more than $6 milliion in debt. As an end result of this, she was reportedly "embarrassed" by the mismanagement of her funds, and this caused her to take her own life. 

Further adding credence to this claim was the note that L'Wren cancelled her London Fashion Week show not too long ago; at the time, she blamed "fabric mishaps" for her pulling out of the prestigious fashion exhibition. But a quick look into the books of the company, LS Fashion LTD, had a deficit of $5,899,548, and she owed creditors $7.641 million. Her company's debts were reportedly increasing with every passing year, hitting $3,063,160.87 in 2010.

Now, obviously, her very rich and very legendary boyfriend could have bailed her out... but L'Wren always prided herself on not being financially reliant on her significant other.

Meanwhile, according to The Washington Post, Jagger has released a statement on his Facebook page about his girlfriend's suicide. "I am still struggling to understand how my lover and best friend could end her life in this tragic way. We spent many wonderful years together and had made a great life for ourselves. She had great presence and her talent was much admired, not least by me. I have been touched by the tributes that people have paid to her, and also the personal messages of support that I have received. I will never forget her," he wrote.

No word yet on any funeral plans for the model-turned-designer.
