However, sources told TMZ an unknown white powdery substance was allegedly found at the scene – this remains unconfirmed by authorities.
Greg and his girlfriend were found by his cousin who noticed their car was still at their house when he was meant to be in LA.
A source told E! News: “His cousin went to check on him and found them.”
The actor moved to Las Vegas to help his mum but often commuted to LA for acting jobs and to visit his daughter Alaya, 10.
Gregory and Natalie had apparently been together for just over a year.
