RHOC Alum Lauri Peterson’s Son Josh Died Amid Addiction Battle

Lauri,
an
original
cast
member
of RHOC,
had
appeared
with
Ashley,
Josh
and
their
sister Sophie,
26, on
the

Bravo

reality
show before
she
left
the
series
in
2013.
Josh’s
addiction
battle and
some
of
his

legal
turmoil

were
depicted in
the
first
four
seasons
between
2006
and
2009.

He
would
go
on
to
serve
four
years
in
prison
for
assault
until
his
release
in
2020.
In
2022,
he was
sentenced
to
two
years
in
prison,
with
credit
given
for
106
days
in
custody,
after
pleading
guilty
to
drug
charges.
This
past
February,
he was
arrested
on
suspicion
of
punching
a
security
guard
at
a
hospital.

“My
mom’s
unwavering
love
and
tireless
efforts
to
support
him
will
forever
be
etched
in
my
heart,”
Ashley
wrote. “She
fought
alongside
him,
never
wavering
in
her
belief
that
he
could
overcome
this
demon.
I
wish
for
a
different
outcome
with
every
fiber
of
my
being.
I
wish
I
could
have
done
more,
been
more,
to
help
him
find
his
way
back
to
the
light.
As
I
grieve
his
loss,
I
cherish
the
memories
of
who
he
truly
was,
before
addiction
stole
him
away.
My
little
brother.”
