Brandi Passante Returns to Storage Wars After Personal Journey

LOS ANGELES, CA — Brandi Passante is returning to the hit reality show Storage Wars for its 16th season, premiering June 7 at 9 p.m. EDT on A&E. Viewers will see Passante navigating the challenging auction world solo, following her split from ex-husband Jarrod Schulz.
Since first appearing on the show in 2010, Brandi has become a fan favorite known for her bubbly personality and keen auction skills. She initially joined the cast alongside Schulz, with whom she shares two children, but has since embraced a new chapter of her life.
“I’ve had to be a lot tougher, especially in a male-dominated business,” Passante told Screen Rant. “It’s a good thing to learn to play with the big boys.” Her determination to succeed has resonated with fans, who have watched her grow from a duo to a powerful solo player in the bidding scene.
Brandi has mingled her reality TV stardom with personal advocacy, recently opening up about her experiences with domestic violence to foster awareness. Despite facing health challenges like Hashimoto’s disease, she continues to shine in the spotlight.
The new season of Storage Wars is shaking things up with hour-long episodes, allowing for more in-depth looks at the bidders and their strategies. This format change promises to reveal more about Brandi’s journey and personality, providing a deeper connection with the audience.
A sneak peek released on her Instagram shows Brandi discussing the season with excitement, stating, “Sh**’s about to get REAL!” She plans to invite celebrities to her podcast, The Real Reality with Brandi Passante, where they share their own experiences.
In her personal life, after a healing period from her relationship with Schulz, Brandi appeared to move on with a new partner, Clifford Beaver. However, speculation about their current status has emerged, as little has been shared in recent months.
As Storage Wars gears up for its highly anticipated new season, Brandi Passante’s journey stands out, and fans are eager to see what treasures lie ahead. The premiere promises to bring familiar faces and new formats that will keep audiences engaged.
