The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Office confirmed to PEOPLE that officers responded to a death investigation at 11:38 a.m. in Toluca Lake, California, where they found a female unresponsive at the residence.

According to an emergency dispatch call posted by TMZ, the call came in as a cardiac arrest. While it’s not yet clear what caused Porter’s death, a source told the outlet she had been suffering from pneumonia for weeks.

The couple, who began dating in the ’90s, had three children together throughout their off-and-on-again relationship: son Christian, 20, and 11-year-old twin daughters D’Lila Star and Jessie James Combs.
