Very sad to announce that Courtney Ball passed away on May 12, 2020. Here is a notice of her memorial.
Courtney’s 2012 Intervention episode was one of the most memorable and controversial episodes of the show. According to her sister Kim, who commented here in February, Courtney had been struggling with her addiction and drug-induced psychosis and was really not well, but her family had not given up on her and still had hope she would make it out the other side. She was obviously adored by her loved ones and will be dearly missed. Rest in peace sweet girl.
Man, this is so sad. I just watched her episode a while back and she really stuck in my brain. So young…. I hope she’s at peace now.
I’m so sad to hear this. Even after all of these years I was hoping she would recover. Rest in peace Courtney.
RIP sweet girl <3
I always thought if she didn’t get out when she did, her life would be over sooner than it should have. If the drugs don’t kill you the life style certainly will. Does anyone know the cause of death? To the family and friends to this sweet baby girl who had a whole life ahead of her, my deepest sympathy and sadness for a child that should still be here today. RIP
Sadly, I didn’t think she had much time left.
Did i see somewhere that Christy Celaya died?
She’s still alive and hasn’t changed a bit.
Whenever I hear someone from the show dies I always shake my head and think, “yet Cristy is still alive somehow”.
I am watching this episode now. COurtney’s grandma breaks my heart. And her sister too. Her mom? no.
That she descended further and further into mental illness is just devastating. If we had national health insurance, this girls would still be alive.
rest in peace Courtney.
Her sister loved her soooo much, it may have been the strongest bond I’ve seen between siblings on the show. Courtney was also such a good person at heart.
Rest In Peace sweet girl.
Very sad to hear this.
BTW just saw an ad and a new season of Intervention starts on 7/20
Does anyone know what happened? So freaking sad.
Overdose
I would love to know more about how Courtney passed away…and where she was. I’m heart broken for her whole family. I believe Courtney is at peace now.
I’m her cousin.. from the tox reports, she ODd on heroine laced with fentanyl. She was assaulted the night before pretty badly so it made her body pretty weak. She died in her dealers house in overtown, Miami Florida.
I’m so sad to hear this. Victoria, thank you for sharing. I saw Courtney’s episode when it first aired and something about her story struck me more deeply than any other intervention episode I had watched. I never forgot it and even thought about it from time to time. You could really see her light and how close it was to be able to be brought out. She seemed like a beautiful soul! Actually came onto this website a few months ago hoping to see a positive update. I hope she is at peace now and I pray for comfort for you and your family.
She OD’d.
Miss you everyday my beautiful cousin. I’ll remember us playing dolls together, jumping on the trampoline, you riding bikes with me and Brian when we were little so you’d make sure we got to the elementary school safe. In my heart you were my sister. May you find comfort with God and with our savior, for you left your demons in this world. Rest in heavenly peace and know that you live on in mine, Cyndi, Christy, and Brian’s hearts. Till we meet again ❤️.
Your little cousin, Vicky
