Actor Jim Carrey has denied allegations that he caused his ex-girlfriend Cathriona White&#39;s death by illegally supplying her with prescription drugs, saying it is a &quot;heartless attempt&quot; to defame him and &quot;the woman I loved.&quot;&nbsp; 
 
Actor Jim Carrey has been sued for allegedly causing his ex-girlfriend White&#39;s death by illegally supplying her with prescription drugs. 
 
Cathriona White was found dead in her Los Angeles apartment in September 2015; suicide is suspected. 
 
In an emotional statement, the actor said he would fight back. &quot;What a terrible shame. It would be easy for me to get in a back room with this man&#39;s lawyer and make this go away, but there are some moments in life when you have to stand up and defend your honour against the evil in this world. I will not tolerate this heartless attempt to exploit me or the woman I loved,&quot; Carrey said. 
 
The lawsuit, filed by White&#39;s husband Mark Burton in Los Angeles Superior Court, accuses Carrey of using his celebrity status and wealth to procure the &quot;highly addictive&quot; prescription drugs Percocet, Ambien and Propranolol under the name of &quot;Arthur King&quot; and giving them to White despite knowing that she was &quot;prone to depression&quot; and &quot;had previously attempted to take her own life&quot;.&nbsp; 
 
The lawsuit also alleges that White was &quot;engaged in a sexual relationship with Carrey&quot; at the time of her death. 
 
White, 30, an Irish-born makeup artiste&nbsp;and Carrey, 54, were rumoured to be in an on-and-off romance and had broken up the week before she died, website TMZ had reported at the time of her death. 
 
In a statement following her death, Carrey had called his former girlfriend &quot;my sweet Cathriona&quot; and said she &quot;was a truly kind and delicate Irish flower, too sensitive for this soil.&quot; &nbsp; 
 
Burton, who is seeking a jury trial, also said Carrey had tried to &quot;cover-up his complicity in her death&quot; by saying White may have taken the drugs from him without his knowledge.&nbsp; 
 
Carrey, star of slapstick comedies like Dumb and Dumber, Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Bruce Almighty, ended a five-year relationship with actress Jenny McCarthy in 2010. He was married twice previously. Both marriages ended in divorce.
