In a distressing development for fans and the music industry alike, country music sensation Colt Ford is currently in intensive care following a severe heart attack that occurred shortly after his recent performance. His team disclosed the harrowing details to TMZ, stating that Ford was rushed to the Banner Desert Medical Center in Mesa, Arizona, immediately after his show at Dierks Bentley’s Whiskey Row in Gilbert, Arizona, last Thursday night.
Ford’s representatives have provided a glimmer of hope by confirming that he is in stable condition, offering some relief amidst the anxiety surrounding his health. The health scare comes after Ford was diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, an autoimmune disorder, in 2022. This condition primarily impacts the muscles responsible for facial expressions, eye movements, and swallowing. Although it is currently unclear if this pre-existing condition played a role in the heart attack, the situation has undoubtedly raised concerns about the broader impacts of the disorder on Ford’s health.
