Tuesday, May 1st, 2018 11:27am

Popular DJ Avicii was found dead in his hotel room on April 20th.

The Wake Me Up star, real name Tim Bergling, was just 28-years-old and had suffered many health complications as a result of excessive drinking.

However it has now been revealed by TMZ that the star took his own life by self inflicted wounds.

His devastated family had already hinted that the Swedish DJ had taken his own life in a statement saying that "our beloved Tim was a seeker, a fragile artistic soul searching for answers to existential questions.

"An over-achieving perfectionist who travelled and worked hard at a pace that led to extreme stress."

The family also said that Avicii "could not go on any longer" and that "he wanted to find peace."

Avicii was found dead in his hotel bathroom at the luxury resort of Muscat Hills in Oman.
