Milania Giudice<\/a>‘s late best friend Victoria Zardoya had ketamine in her system before she died following a devastating fall in Florida … TMZ has learned.<\/p>\n

According to the medical examiner’s report, obtained by TMZ, the 20-year-old’s blood tested positive for ketamine and norketamine — a substance produced when the body breaks down the drug.<\/p>\n

Her toxicology results also showed alcohol and etomidate, a medication used for sedation. The Sun<\/a> was the first to report the news.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The blood sample was collected on July 24, the same day Victoria suffered her fatal injuries … though the report does not establish when or why the drugs were administered, or whether they played any role in her fall.<\/p>\n

The medical examiner ruled Victoria’s death an accident, listing the cause as craniocerebral trauma … with the autopsy documenting skull fractures and bleeding around the brain.<\/p>\n

As TMZ previously reported<\/a> … Victoria was exploring the historic Fort Dade ruins on Florida’s Egmont Key with friends on July 24 when she suffered the tragic fall.<\/p>\n

Her friend Victoria Silberbusch later said the group did everything they could to help her … but Victoria ultimately died from her injuries on July 26.<\/p>\n

Victoria and Milania, the daughter of “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice<\/a>, were lifelong best friends … and Milania was left devastated by the loss and honored her late friend with a tattoo reading “Baby V.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Milania Giudice’s BFF Had Ketamine In System Before She Died From Traumatic Brain Injury Published November 3, 2026…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":957139,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[49,48,75],"class_list":["post-957138","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-entertainment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/957138","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=957138"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/957138\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/957139"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=957138"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=957138"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=957138"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
