Sister Wives Star Janelle Brown Reveals Troubling Texts from Son Garrison Before Apparent Suicide
Tragedy struck the Brown family this week as Janelle Brown, star of the hit reality TV show “Sister Wives,” revealed that her son Garrison had sent troubling texts shortly before his apparent suicide. The 25-year-old’s heartbreaking messages left his family and friends in shock and disbelief.
According to a police report obtained by TMZ, Janelle asked one of her other five children to check on Garrison after he sent a disconcerting message to a group of people the family works with. The message read, “I want to hate you for sharing the good times. But I can’t. I miss these days.” Unfortunately, Garrison stopped responding to his mother’s attempts to reach out within minutes.
Garrison’s three roommates in Flagstaff, Arizona, were aware of his struggles with drinking but didn’t think to check on him after hearing a loud noise on Monday night. They later discovered that the noise was likely a gunshot. It was only when Garrison’s younger brother Gabriel arrived at the residence on Tuesday and found him dead that the roommates realized the tragic outcome.
Janelle and her ex-husband Kody, from whom she says Garrison was estranged, announced their son’s death via social media on Tuesday. In a heartfelt post, they described Garrison as “a bright spot in the lives of all who knew him” and expressed the immense pain they were feeling. They also requested privacy during this difficult time and asked others to join them in honoring Garrison’s memory.
The Brown family has been in the public eye since 2010 when their reality TV show, “Sister Wives,” premiered on TLC. The show follows the lives of Kody Brown and his four wives, three of whom are now exes. The family’s unique dynamic and polygamist lifestyle have captivated audiences for 18 seasons.
Garrison’s tragic death serves as a reminder of the hidden struggles that individuals may face, even in seemingly happy and successful families. It is a devastating loss for the Brown family and a heartbreaking reminder of the importance of mental health awareness and support.
As the Brown family mourns the loss of their beloved son and brother, fans of “Sister Wives” join them in sending their condolences and honoring Garrison’s memory. May he rest in peace.
