The autopsy report, which has been obtained by The Sun, revealed the American Idol alum's daughter died by suicide by hanging.

Beyond her immediate cause of death, the autopsy's "toxicologic evaluation was remarkable for methamphetamine and fentanyl intoxication."

In a tragic revelation, the report said: "The decedent and her boyfriend were in an abusive relationship. No note was found."

Chris, 42, and Deanna Daughtry's daughter killed herself while her boyfriend had "left the house to buy methamphetamine and the decedent was reported to be texting the same dealer asking for 'something' to help her," the narrative summary in the report added.

The medical examiner's report concluded: "The cause of death is classified as “Hanging.” The circumstances, as provided, are consistent with manner classification of 'Suicide.'"

In one of her she wrote: “Look around and love somebody the world’s been hateful long enough” and added the hashtag iloveyouasyou are.

Hannah added a smiling picture of herself.

In her last Instagram post on November 2, she uploaded another photo of herself and captioned it with the symbols “^_~” indicating a winking face.

Her cause of death has not been established.

According to Chris Daughtry’s rep the circumstances surrounding Hannah’s death are currently being looked into.

Tributes have already started to come in for Daughtry’s stepdaughter who he shared with his wife Deanna.

A friend paid tribute on one of Hannah’s post with lines from Daughtry’s song Open Your Eyes.

They wrote: For the first time you can open your eyes/And see the world without your sorrow/And no one knows the pain you left behind/And all the peace you could never find/Is waiting there to hold you, keep you/Welcome to the first day of your life/Just open up your eyes.”

'REST IN PEACE'

Another said: Rest in peace. Gone way too soon.”

DeAnna DuPont wrote in a Facebook tribute, “Please keep Chris Daughtry and Deanna Daughtry stepdaughters. Hannah, their 25-year-old daughter (step-daughter to Chris) and mother to Liam & Lily, was found dead tonight. As most all of us know that, Chris was one of my clients for numerous years. He loves his family dearly, and I know he and Deanna are beyond devastated. My heart aches for them.”

Another Facebook user ‘Timbug Keene’ added: “My heart aches for Deanna and Chris Daughtry. They lost their 25 year old daughter Hannah today. He was a smile and a hug for me, mom and my sister during dads heart surgery and may our prayers help him with open hearts! God bless your family Chris."

Daughtry has cancelled all of his forthcoming shows which were part of his Dearly Beloved tour and has flown back to Nashville, Tennessee, to be with his grieving family.

“Due to the unexpected death of Chris and Deanna Daughtry's daughter, Hannah, all currently scheduled shows for the coming week for Daughtry have been postponed,” a statement posted from both the band and Deanna’s accounts said.

“The Daughtry family thanks you for your understanding and respectfully asks for privacy during this very difficult time. Further details will be made available at a later date. The investigation into this tragic death is still ongoing.”

Deanna has also changed her profile picture on her Instagram page to an image of a burning candle.

Hannah and her younger brother, Griffin, are Deanna’s children from a previous relationship.
