In a heartbreaking turn of events, Chuck Potthast, known from“90 Day Fiancé,”passed away at the age of 64 following a tragic fall in his bathtub. According to reports from the Hillsborough County Medical Examiner, his cause of death included blunt force injuries to his face and neck, alongside positional asphyxia. It’s a stark reminder that while reality TV stars may seem invincible, they face the same vulnerabilities and struggles as the rest of us.

The report sheds light on Chuck’s ongoing health battles, including chronic alcohol use, liver cirrhosis, and acute alcohol intoxication that contributed to his fall. Just two months prior, he had undergone an extensive surgery—a hernia repair coupled with a collapsed stomach. His passing is more than a sad headline; it’s a strong reminder about the importance of health and well-being, whether you’re on a reality show or just living your daily life.
