The son of “Sister Wives” Kody and Janelle Brown, has died at the age of 25, following what looks to be an apparent suicide.
Garrison lost his life at his home in Flagstaff, Arizona, where he had been living on his own after moving away from his family.
The Flagstaff Police Department said, “Our officers entered Garrison’s home after a report was received of a death on the premises.”
When officers arrived, Garrison was confirmed to be deceased and the cause was a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Investigators stated that Garrison’s brother Gabriel was the one who discovered his brother in the house and called 911 to report the death. Investigators said there was no foul play detected and the incident remains as a suicide investigation.
Janelle confirmed the news of her son’s passing on Instagram by posting, “Kody and I are deeply saddened to announce the loss of our beautiful boy Robert Garrison Brown.”
She also included two pictures along with the post and added, “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.”
TLC also made a statement about Garrison’s passing, “We are devastated to hear of the tragic loss of Garrison Brown. We extend our deepest sympathies and heartfelt condolences to the Brown family at this difficult time.”
Garrison had appeared on “Sister Wives” since 2010, the TLC reality show that has long documented his 55-year-old father’s polygamous lifestyle. His mother, Janelle, 54, was among Kody’s spouses until she split from him in 2022.
Garrison and his large family used to live in Utah until relocating to Las Vegas.
The National Guard member moved out of their Las Vegas home, though, during the COVID-19 pandemic as his brood navigated a feud ignited by his dad’s strict coronavirus-related rules.
Garrison purchased a home in Arizona, where he’d been residing since 2021 with his pets.
His last Instagram post was shared last week, introducing his followers to a new cat named Ms. Buttons. “Newest edition to my home, Ms Buttons. She’s 9 years old and was on the line for euthanasia but my savior complex couldn’t suffice,” he wrote.
