In February 2020, Amie died after falling off a balcony in her Hollywood Hills home. She had a dispute with her ex-boyfriend, Gareth Pursehouse. Gareth was convicted to life without parole for the murder on 28 September 2023. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole on 6 December 2023.
Following his ex-fiancée's death, the Whose Line Is It Anyway alum put his show on hold that week. He also posted on X (Twitter):
I hope you're lucky enough to have someone in your life that loves as much as she did.
In a 2020 interview with Us Weekly, The Price Is Right spoke about the emotional toll of Amie's death:
All the time. I think about her every day. It's such a loss. Her death still affects me and my ideas about relationships and intimacy.
Drew explained that their breakup was bad but necessary, stating he didn't want to think of her, see a picture, or be reminded of her. However, a few days before she died, he received a text from her saying:
Hey, it's Amie. I've been thinking a lot about forgiveness. I would love to get together with you and talk about some things.
The game show host texted back, telling her that he loved her and would see her the following week.
I texted her that I loved her and that I'd see her next week. I heard from one of her friends that she shed tears about my saying that I loved her still. Which I did. I loved her madly even though we were broken up.
