Jim Carrey Legal Docs: Ex Had STDs Before We Met

Jim Carrey will answer questions about former girlfriend Cathriona White’s 2015 death by suicide under oath when he's deposed in a wrongful death lawsuit next week, People reports. White's mother (who, Carrey's lawyer tells Page Six, "didn't know" her daughter for 14 years) and estranged husband filed the lawsuit against Carrey. 

In a statement, their lawyer says the actor will be forced to answer questions including "why he provided illegal drugs to Ms. White, why he gave Ms. White, why he gave Ms. White multiple STDs and then lied about it, and why he has engaged in a public charade of innocence crafted by his handlers." The suit alleges Carrey, using a fake name, obtained the prescription drugs White ultimately used to kill herself and gave them to her knowing she had a history of depression and suicide attempts.
