Casey Johnson, heiress to the Johnson & Johnson fortune and daughter of Woody Johnson, owner of the New York Jets football team has been found dead.

Details are sketchy at this time, but reports say her death was “a natural one.”

The 30-year-old heiress was engaged to Tila Tequila who tweeted her Fiancee’s death on her Twitter page: “Everyone please pray 4 my Wifey Casey Johnson. She has passed away. Thank u for all ur love and support but I will be offline to be w family…”

Johnson’s last tweet was dated 4:12 AM, December 29th and read “sweet dreams everyone... I'm getting a new car.. Any ideas? cant b a two seater cause we have a daughter...sedan, sports car, suv??”

In addition to Johnson’s struggle with alcohol and drug abuse, her personal life saw troubled waters beginning with an incident involving a former lover of Johnson’s, Courtenay Semel who set Johnson’s hair on fire after a dispute in January 2009.

Then in November 2009, Johnson was arrested in Van Nuys, California and charged with grand theft auto, jewelry theft and a gamut of other crimes regarding former friend and supermodel Jasmine Lennard.

Johnson’s most recent struggle was a custody battle with her mother, Sale Johnson who has custody of Casey’s adopted daughter, Ava, whom Johnson adopted in 2007.

Johnson’s status wasn't limited to "socialite who made 'shocking headlines.'”
At the age of 14, she co-authored a book with her Father titled “Managing your child’s diets.”

Johnson, who became engaged to reality TV star, Tila Tequila in December 2009, was found dead in Los Angeles on Monday morning. She was 30-years-old.
