Garrison Brown’s Passing and Its Impact on the Brown Family of ‘Sister Wives’

Garrison Brown, the 25-year-old son of Janelle and Kody Brown from the reality TV show ‘Sister Wives,’ passed away unexpectedly in March 2024. His death was confirmed by his parents in a joint Instagram statement, where they announced that Garrison had died by suicide, leaving a profound impact on the family and their fans.

The family held a funeral for Garrison, which was attended by many of his loved ones. However, there has been speculation about why Robyn Brown‘s children were not present at the funeral. Mykelti Padron, who has been a bridge between Robyn, Kody, and the rest of the family, recently addressed this issue. She mentioned that her relationship with Robyn has become strained, partly due to the events surrounding Garrison’s funeral.

Janelle Brown expressed her gratitude and emotional response to the support received after Garrison’s death. She shared on Instagram about the donations made in Garrison’s name to animal shelters, which were significant to him as he was an avid cat lover. Janelle highlighted the importance of these donations and the memories they evoke of her son.

Fans of ‘Sister Wives’ have also noticed that Garrison seems to be absent from recent family photos and discussions on the show. This has led to speculation about whether the family or the producers of the show have intentionally excluded him from the narrative. The handling of Garrison’s memory and the family’s grief has been a topic of discussion among viewers and the family themselves.

Garrison’s death has further strained the already complicated relationships within the Brown family. Gabriel “Gabe” Brown, Janelle and Kody’s son, has been vocal about his feelings towards his father and Robyn Brown. Gabe has set clear boundaries with Kody, stating that he will not engage in a relationship unless Kody takes accountability for his actions and works on repairing their relationship.
