Sister Wives Star Garrison Brown's Untimely Demise at 25 — The Heartbreaking Details Revealed!"

"He was a bright spot in the lives of all who knew him," said a statement released by Garrison's parents, Janelle and Kody Brown. His passing will leave a void in our lives that is so immense it will leave us speechless."

The late Garrison Brown, son of Kody and Janelle Brown, stars of Sister Wives, passed away. He was twenty-five.

With the words, "Kody and I are deeply saddened to announce the loss of our beautiful boy Robert Garrison Brown," Janelle announced the tragedy on Instagram on Tuesday. For everyone who knew him, he was a source of happiness. We shall be left speechless at the void his loss has left in our lives. Please respect our privacy and join us in paying tribute to his memory." (Kody shared the same message on his personal Instagram page.)

According to the Flagstaff Police Department's Lieutenant Charles M. Hernandez II, who spoke with PEOPLE, "on 03/05/2024 Flagstaff Police officers responded to a report of a death inside a home." The FPD verified that Gabriel, Garrison's 22-year-old brother, "discovered Mr. Brown deceased" in what seemed to be a suicide.

"At this time there is no indication of foul play, and Detectives from the Criminal Investigations Division are investigating," Lt. Hernandez said in her statement.

"We are devastated to hear of the tragic loss of Garrison Brown," TLC said in a statement to PEOPLE. We offer the Brown family our sincere condolences and deepest sympathy during this trying time.

In the TLC series that followed the polygamist family's daily lives, Garrison made his debut in 2010 alongside his mother Janelle, his father Kody's other wives, Meri, Christine, and Robyn Brown.

Madison, Logan, Garrison, Gabriel, Hunter, and Savanah are the couple's six children, born after Janelle's spiritual marriage to Kody in 1993. Janelle disclosed that she and Kody had split up in December 2022.

After Christine declared her separation from Kody, she became the second matriarch of the Brown family to depart. Robyn was the last wife left of the Brown patriarch after Meri and Kody announced their separation shortly after Janelle's declaration.

The connection between Kody and his children has deteriorated over time; in particular, they became "at odds" with him after voicing their "discontent" with the way he had managed the COVID-19 epidemic.

Gabriel said, "I was met with just a wall," at the time. Additionally, there was no dialogue. That, in my opinion, is what ultimately strained our relationship.

Later, in a candid interview, Janelle voiced her worries about her kids' tense connection with their father. "My concerns are on the mental well-being of my youngsters. Gabriel has a profound sense of everything. She said, "But he's also the kid who doesn't say anything," and then described Garrison as "not as happy-go-lucky as he used to be," saying that he "just seems angry or sadder."

In a May 2023 episode, Kody also addressed the divide that had grown between him and his boys.

He admitted at the time, "I haven't been in touch with Gabriel and Garrison for quite a while." "The fact that I'm no longer close to them makes me sad. We just done so many rich, memorable things together throughout our lives; they were truly unique experiences."

"I think and hope that we'll just get over this and that we'll be safe being around each other again," he continued. There's not exactly an open door between Gabe and Garrison at the moment. They are unwilling to interact with me.
