Wednesday, January 15, 2025 - A popular Australian model and DJ has died after a tragic accident while holidaying in Bali.
Courtney Mills, 37, was visiting her two dogs in Bali when
she fell from a balcony at the unit complex she was staying in Kuta on Friday.
She suffered critical injuries and was rushed to hospital,
where she underwent several emergency operations before she d!ed surrounded by
her family two days later.
Ms Mills spent several years living in Bali, which she
regarded as her second home before returning to Melbourne and moving
back in with her family.
Her shattered family have broken their silence to pay
tribute to a free spirit who never said no to an adventure or opportunity.
The much-loved DJ spun tunes at some of Melbourne's biggest
nightspots, including Metropol, Cushion, Secret Garden, Hotel Barkley and Motel
Eve before launching an international career.
'She was beautiful, big-hearted, happy and go-lucky,' her
mum Diane Mayne told Nine News as she fought back tears.
'She lived life to the fullest.'
Ms Mills' sister Kiani added that her death has been ruled
as an accident.
It's just the grief and mourning of a life that's been lost
way too early,' she said.
Kiani told the Herald Sun: 'The most beautiful thing we have
been able to do for the last couple of days is sit and reminisce about the
incredible life that she lived and how full her life was.'
'She would drive hours and hours just to DJ for one hour.
'She would fly across the country to do the job she loved so
passionately and to her, it wasn't a job, it was a life.
'Being behind those decks was her sense of freedom and we
got to see her light up rooms.''
