She recalled, "I went to England in 2019 and when I went there, you know, my body just exploded. It just exploded. And I was in hospitals a lot."

Courtney continued, "I almost died, I lost all my hair. I was about 100 pounds. And they told me I was going to die, and I didn’t believe them."

Courtney didn't reveal the cause of her life-threatening sickness ... but she took some time to reflect on her tendency to challenge those with authority -- and admitted she should probably listen to doctors now.
