Kovar died of an opiate intoxication on August 17, 2012, at the age of 29. He was discovered with blood coming out of his nose and ears at an apartment building in the 9800 block of South Sayre Avenue in Chicago Ridge, Illinois. Kovar was pronounced dead at the scene shortly before 9 a.m. An initial autopsy proved inconclusive. Kovar's family stated there were no signs of alcohol or other drugs found in his system, and believed he had been sober for approximately six months while he pursued acting, but a later autopsy indicated that Kovar succumbed to "opiate intoxication".

Kovar next appeared in the third season of Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew, which premiered in November 2009. Other cast members for the season included Dennis Rodman, Mackenzie Phillips, and Heidi Fleiss. On the show, he was treated for addictions to alcohol, cocaine, ecstasy, methamphetamines, and steroids. In an on-camera discussion about his addiction to cocaine with Dr. Drew Pinsky, the show's host and addiction medicine specialist, at the end of the season Kovar stated, "I want this, but at the same time, I'm not going to make any false ... promises,...I'm not going to tell you. 'I'm going to be sober,' 'cause I don’t know."

Kovar, a former personal trainer, was discovered at age 24 by a talent scout on a Chicago street. In 2008, Kovar was cast in the twentieth season of the long-running MTV series, The Real World. Kovar believed he was cast for The Real World: Hollywood due to his personality and openness about past partying and drug use. In a 2009 interview with the Chicago Tribune, Kovar elaborated, "We kind of have an 'I don't give a [bleep]' attitude. What you see is what you get...People want edgy. People want attitude. People want in-your-face, and that's what Chicagoans bring. The attitude we have is what's going to draw the ratings." Kovar became increasingly addicted to drugs and alcohol while filming The Real World. Due to erratic behavior and substance abuse, he was asked to leave the show to pursue treatment.
