A man was found dead at Olivia Newton-John’s Florida home earlier this week.

Police believe that Christopher Pariseleti died of suicide, having shot himself.

The Jupiter Police Department said in a statement:

"Subsequent to an autopsy this morning … it was determined Tequesta resident, Christopher Pariseleti, died as the result of a self-inflicted gunshot wound."

"This case investigation has been classified as a suicide and there are no suspicious circumstances surrounding the death of Mr. Pariseleti."

 

It was on Monday when Jupiter, Fla., police were first called to a residence belonging to the legendary actress-singer and husband John Easterling.

Police found 42-year-old male who had sustained a fatal gunshot wound. At the time, the deceased’s name and cause of death were not released.

However, Jupiter Police Department officials did confirm that the man had been hired as a contractor by Olivia Newton-John and John Easterling.

"Olivia and her husband John are in shock over the tragic event that occurred at their Florida home yesterday," the couple’s publicist said in a statement.

"At this time we are awaiting additional information, but can confirm that the couple was not in Florida at the time and the deceased was not a family member."
