Sister Wives' Janelle Brown Details "Bittersweet" Memories of Late Son Garrison Brown
View Date:2024-12-23 23:11:57
Janelle Brown is grateful for the time she had with her son.
The Sister Wives star shared the way her phone regularly reminds her of her and ex Kody Brown’s late son Garrison Brown by sharing a 2022 image of a sweet family moment.
“My phone serves me up memories every day. Often they are pictures with Garrison,” the mother of six wrote on Instagram Sept. 25. “On good days (and today is a good day!) they make smile because I remember the event and that it was a fun day. There is always a bittersweet after glow but it’s still a good thing to see these time capsules.”
In the photo, Garrison is smiling and hugging his grinning mom alongside his brother Gabriel Brown, 22, and sister Savanah Brown, 19, while the group go on a family hike together.
The memory came up just a few weeks after the Brown family marked the six-month anniversary of the 25-year-old’s death by suicide.
At the time, Janelle, who also shares daughter Madison Brush, 28, and sons Logan Brown, 30, and Hunter Brown, 27, with her former spouse, marked the day by sharing another sweet photo with her late son.
“Sometimes it doesn’t seem like you’re gone,” she wrote on a Sept. 5 Instagram post. “And then I remember I won’t be getting a call or text from you and it all comes rushing back. I know you fought hard but in the end you just couldn’t stay. I love you so much and will see you again when my journey is done.”
Garrison’s older sister Madison also paid tribute on the anniversary, sharing more insight into the Brown family’s grief.
“My brother, Garrison, had his struggles, but this was not something any of us saw any signs for,” she wrote. “We were truly blindsided. We talked regularly, and my mom’s kids have always been close-knit, even as life changed around us. Garrison was sarcastic and witty, and in moments of seriousness, he seemed almost uncomfortable with it—like it was hard for him to be vulnerable. I miss him dearly.”
