Lea Michele seen for first time since Cory Monteith death

OHMYGOSSIP — Lea Michele is back out in the wild. The actress — who was left devastated by the shock death of her boyfriend Cory Monteith — was photographed for the first time yesterday since the actor  was found dead in his Vancouver hotel room on July 13.

Michele was seen traveling in the passenger seat of a female friend’s car to an address in Bel Air.

Lea — whose eyes were hidden by dark sunglasses — looked solemn and appeared to be wearing a silver necklace spelling out Cory’s name, which she has been spotted wearing in the past.

Recent reports claimed Lea has been suffering with panic attacks following Cory’s death.

“Lea is getting worse–the shock is wearing off now and the reality is setting in,” a source told HollywoodLife.

“She’s been having horrible anxiety attacks where she feels like she can’t breathe.

“She misses Cory more every day.

“Lea pushes herself so hard and expects so much from herself. And she doesn’t want to let down anyone at Glee because she knows everyone is counting on her to come back.

“It’s hard to imagine how she’s going to physically get through her work days. She can barely stop crying and it’s only getting worse.”
