In a whirlwind of heartbreak, health crises, and unexpected resilience, Colt Johnson, one of the most polarizing figures in the 90 Day Fiancé universe, has returned to the franchise spotlight—but not without surviving a terrifying ordeal that nearly claimed his leg and quite possibly his life, sending shockwaves through fans who once knew him only as the mama’s boy from Las Vegas who stumbled through turbulent romances with Larissa Lima, Jess Caroline, and eventually Vanessa Guerra, each relationship marred by betrayal, control, and secrets that kept viewers glued to their screens while Colt’s personal world quietly crumbled behind the scenes, culminating in a devastating trampoline accident in December 2022 that would set off a chain of misfortunes no reality TV script could fabricate, beginning with multiple surgeries, bladder failure, and a catheter, followed by a grueling two-week hospital stay and a recovery process that would stretch well beyond a year, riddled with setbacks, emotional strain, and the final disintegration of his marriage to Vanessa, who had once eloped with him during The Single Life only to later walk away as the man she married lay broken, physically and emotionally, in a hospital bed and out of the spotlight; but as rumors swirled about his disappearance from filming and alleged retirement from the franchise, Colt was quietly preparing a comeback that would both terrify and inspire fans when it was revealed he had once again shattered the same leg—his femur—while filming a new spin-off in Mexico, a brutal repeat of his previous injury that left him so vulnerable and infection-prone that multiple bloggers and sources claimed amputation was on the table, a possibility Colt himself appeared to acknowledge as he navigated intense pain, limited mobility, and the bitter truth that the weight-loss medication he had reportedly used to compete with Vanessa’s dramatic transformation may have weakened his bones and triggered this second fall, leading to even more surgeries and a desperate search for recovery far from cameras and, crucially, far from Vanessa, who chose not to return to his side, leaving Colt in the care of another woman, Courtney Reeran, with whom he allegedly became romantically involved despite juggling multiple Brazilian girlfriends at the time, a tangled mess of emotional betrayals, legal worries, and whispers of Colt researching disability accommodations in Brazil in a possible attempt to flee IRS scrutiny and U.S. healthcare drama by seeking Brazilian citizenship through adoption or marriage—moves that painted a picture of a man simultaneously in survival mode and deep denial, a man both conniving and confused, wounded and weaponized, fighting for control over a life spinning wildly beyond his grasp, until April 2025, when fans were stunned and relieved to see a visibly healthier, smiling Colt posting Instagram stories of himself walking unassisted in British Columbia, indulging in cheesecake with his mother Debbie, and assuring the world he had not lost his leg after all, though his transformation—both physical and emotional—was undeniable, the Colt who once alienated lovers and infuriated fans now seemingly more introspective, more peaceful, and perhaps even grateful, as he shared heartfelt reflections on turning forty, speaking of lost family he’d reconnected with, the adventures he’d embarked on, and the lessons etched into him by a year of agony and rebirth, a Colt reborn not just in body, but in spirit, carrying scars from surgeries and relationships like armor as he steps into a new chapter on 90 Day Hunt for Love, no longer the naïve man-child of seasons past, but a survivor, a seeker, and a man who may finally be learning what it means to stand alone—even if it took nearly losing his ability to stand at all.
