Latonya Pottain has passed away.
Known for appearing on Season 11 of “My 600-lb Life,” Pottain died on Saturday at CHRISTUS Highland Medical Center in Shreveport, Louisiana, The Post can confirm.
She was 40 years old.
A representative for the Natchitoches Parish Coroner’s Office told The Post that no autopsy was performed, but a preliminary cause of death revealed Pottain died of congestive heart failure.
Since Pottain died of natural causes, there was no need for an autopsy. We were told that her body has been released to a funeral home of her family’s choosing, per the coroner.
Pottain passed away just hours after spending time with her family over the weekend.
Her brother shared the heartbreaking final time she saw her loved ones, revealing that several family members went to the reality star’s home on Saturday morning and witnessed that she was having trouble breathing.
He told TMZ that Pottain didn’t look well and expressed how uncomfortable she felt.
Pottain’s brother said the nurse called the family to inform them that Latonya had called an ambulance to bring her to the hospital because she was going into cardiac arrest, which ultimately took her life.
Pottain’s loved ones are finalizing funeral arrangements.
“Please join us in prayer for this dear family as they complete final care arrangements for their deceased loved one,” her online obituary read, which also included links to send flowers and to donate to her memorial.
Pottain’s heart issues were well documented, with her death coming roughly one year after she begged fans to “pray for me” amid her health battle.
“Y’all pray for me my heart not working right and there is nothing more the doctors can do here in Louisiana please keep me lifted,” she wrote in her alarming Facebook message, per The Sun.
During her time on “My 600-lb Life,” Pottain struggled to stay on the weight-loss program despite hiring a trainer to help her reach her goals.
Still, she continued to gain weight, revealing that food helped her mental health.
“When I eat, it takes the stress away,” Pottain stated on the TLC series. “That’s what I do to help me cope with things.”
She added, “I know the food is unhealthy and not good for me. But with the habit that I have for long, it’s hard to change it. I’m disappointed in myself for getting to this place.”
At one point, Dr. Younan Nowzaradan — known as Dr. Now — informed her that he could no longer help her because she couldn’t stay on track.
Several others from “My 600-lb Life” family have tragically lost their lives, including Larry Myers Jr., Destinee LaShaee, James “LB” Bonner, James King, Lisa Fleming, Coliesa McMillian and more.
