Sister Wives stars Kody Brown and Janelle Brown are no longer married but after the death of their son Garrison, they have been united in their grief.

“Janelle and I are deeply saddened to announce the loss of our beautiful boy Robert Garrison Brown,” Kody wrote in a joint Instagram statement with Janelle in March 2024. “He was a bright spot in the lives of all who knew him. Our 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.”

The former couple’s statement came shortly after Us Weekly confirmed Garrison died by suicide at the age of 25. (Kody and Janelle, who split in 2022, share six children including Garrison.)

Since Garrison’s passing, Janelle has been vocal on social media about her ups and downs with grief. Kody, meanwhile, expressed his heartbreak on several episodes of Sister Wives, season 19 of which documented the family’s initial reactions and eventual burying of Garrison.
