Angus Cloud’s ex-manager detailed actor’s alleged drug addiction months before ‘Euphoria’ star’s death

Months before Angus Cloud’s tragic death, a man claiming to be his former talent manager detailed the “Euphoria” star’s alleged struggle with substance abuse.

Police in Oakland, Calif., responded to a Monday morning 911 call made by Cloud’s mother who reported a “possible overdose” and that her son did not have a pulse, according to TMZ.

Cloud was pronounced dead at the scene. He was 25.

The exact cause of the actor’s death has yet to be released.

In April, Diomi Cordero claimed to have worked as Cloud’s talent manager in 2021 after the two met at a rehab clinic where he claimed Cloud was a patient at the time.

While the since-deleted tweet detailed the duo’s falling out, Cordero claimed to have witnessed the actor’s struggle with an ongoing drug addiction after he was discharged from the rehab facility.

Cordero alleged that Cloud had relapsed after meeting the actor — who played the drug dealer Fezco in “Euphoria” — at his home for a July 4 barbecue in 2021.

“Upon entering his premises and attempting to greet him with a hug, it became immediately apparent that he had resumed substance abuse, a mere two days after completing his treatment,” Cordero claimed.

Cordero claimed that the “situation gradually deteriorated” over the next few months and said that by November 2021, Cloud had “evidently relinquished control of his addiction.”

Cloud’s alleged former manager also said that he had received a distressing phone call from the actor’s roommate around that time.

The roommate allegedly told Cordero that the “North Hollywood” star was struggling to breathe.

Cordero then claimed to have rushed over to Cloud’s home, where he administered Narcan and performed CPR.

Following the alleged incident, Cordero claimed their working relationship ended.

“The only comfort we have is knowing Angus is now reunited with his dad, who was his best friend. Angus was open about his battle with mental health and we hope that his passing can be a reminder to others that they are not alone and should not fight this on their own in silence.”

In conclusion, they shared, “We hope the world remembers him for his humor, laughter and love for everyone. We ask for privacy at this time as we are still processing this devastating loss.”
