Sister Wives' Kody And Janelle Brown's Son Garrison Dead At 25

Kody and Janelle Brown's son, Garrison, has died at the age of 25, TMZ confirmed on March 5. The Flagstaff, Arizona Police Department discovered Garrison dead in his home on Tuesday morning. While his death by suicide is now being investigated, for the time being, there is reportedly no indication of foul play. Garrison was seen on his parents' TLC series, "Sister Wives," throughout its run beginning in 2010. The series focuses on his parents' polygamist lifestyle, and illustrated how he and his many siblings and half-siblings navigated the atypical family structure. Garrison is survived by his parents and siblings.

His mother, Janelle, took to Instagram on Tuesday afternoon to confirm the tragic news. She posted a photo of Garrison during his time serving in the National Guard with the caption, "Kody and I are deeply saddened to announce the loss of our beautiful boy Robert Garrison Brown. He was a bright spot in the lives of all who knew him. His loss will leave such a big hole in our lives that it takes our breath away. We ask that you please respect our privacy and join us in honoring his memory."

Inside Garrison's complicated family life

Janelle and Kody Brown split up in 2022 after 30 years together. The pair had six children during their time together: Logan, Hunter, Garrison, Gabriel, Madison, and Savanah. Not only did Kody drive Janelle away for years before officially splitting up with her, but he also had a strained relationship with Garrison. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Garrison and Kody didn't see eye-to-eye when it came to how they dealt with the unusual circumstances. As a result, Garrison moved out of his family home in Las Vegas. He bought his own home in Flagstaff, Arizona, in 2021. Per TMZ, just four days before his passing, Garrison took to Instagram to share that he'd adopted a cat.

It seems that Kody 's relationship with both Garrison and Garrison's brother, Gabriel, struggled right to the end. According to People, in December 2023, during the "Sister Wives: Look Back" special, Janelle said that Kody did "have somewhat of a relationship with Garrison right now," but she added that he still hadn't entirely squashed his feud with his two sons. It has been reported that 22-year-old Gabriel went to Garrison's house on March 5 and found him dead (via the U.S. Sun). Our hearts go out to Garrison's loved ones in the wake of this tragedy.
