On July 7, 2015, Julia was found dead in her bathroom in Quezon City at the age of 15.[1][2]

Personal life

Julia Buencamino was the youngest child among four children of actors Nonie Buencamino and Shamaine Centenera-Buencamino.[3]

Career

Her film career began with a small role in the 2005 film Sandalang Bahay.[4] The next year, she gained a supporting role in the film Inang Yaya.[5] It was not until many years later that she received another role, for Oh My G! at ABS-CBN in 2015.[6]

Death

Buencamino was found hanging from a nylon rope in her bathroom by her family's household help at around 8:20 pm on Tuesday, July 7, 2015. Her brother, Gregorio, rushed her to the Cardinal Santos Medical Center in San Juan City. At 8:46 pm, she was declared dead on arrival.[1][2] Buencamino's father insisted that the police halt their investigations towards her death, as he was convinced that the cause of death was suicide.[2] Her remains were transferred to Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Shrine at New Manila, Quezon City.[7] On her suicide note, posted on Tumblr a few days later, Buencamino revealed that she was a panromantic demisexual at the time of her death and had selected Lee as her gender-neutral name as she also identified as gender-neutral.[8][9]
