Corey Harrison faces significant medical bills after motorcycle accident
Corey Harrison, known for his role on the reality show ‘Pawn Stars’, is currently grappling with approximately $130,000 in medical bills following a serious motorcycle accident in Tulum, Mexico, on January 23, 2026. The accident resulted in 11 fractured ribs, a concussion, and facial injuries, leading to a nearly month-long hospitalization and three surgeries.
After spending 14 days in the hospital, Corey has returned home to Tulum, where he is recovering. However, the financial burden of his medical expenses has left him with just $400 remaining in his bank account. Compounding the issue, he has no health insurance to help cover these costs.
In an effort to alleviate the financial strain, a GoFundMe campaign was launched with a target of raising $18,000. So far, the campaign has garnered around $5,000 in donations, but it remains uncertain whether it will reach its goal.
Corey expressed his distress over the situation, stating, “What am I going to do, fly out to Vegas and sell stuff? I can’t move from my recliner.” He further lamented, “I’m just going to die out here. I don’t have the money to keep paying these people.” His current condition has also forced him to pause his podcast, further impacting his income.
Rick Harrison, Corey’s father and co-star on ‘Pawn Stars’, commented on the situation, emphasizing Corey’s independence by saying, “Corey is a grown man and he will deal with his life as he sees fit.” This highlights the personal responsibility Corey feels despite the overwhelming circumstances.
Despite the challenges, Corey remains grateful for the support he has received, noting, “Thank God I’m not in the United States, because it would have probably cost me about $300,000.” This statement underscores the financial relief he feels being in Mexico, where medical costs are comparatively lower.
As Corey continues his recovery, the community’s response to the GoFundMe campaign may play a crucial role in determining his financial stability moving forward. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any further developments in his recovery or financial situation.
