Bombshell News!! MINUTES AGO: Sister Wives’ Janelle Brown Spends Christmas Heartbroken After Keeping Huge Secret From Villain Kody
Sister Wives star Janelle Brown revealed heartbreaking photos, making it clear to her followers just how difficult her first Christmas without Garrison Brown was, especially after keeping a major secret from her ex-husband Kody Brown.
Janelle, the second wife of Sister Wives patriarch Kody, has been having a hard time both on-screen and off as she’s moved through the most difficult season of her life.
On-screen, Janelle has been keeping a major secret from Kody Brown throughout Sister Wives season 19 about her intentions to sell her piece of Coyote Pass. Off-screen, Janelle has been dealing with a devastating loss.
Sister Wives‘ Janelle Brown shared sweet family photos that were taken last Christmas when she and her six children spent the holiday together.
In now-expired Instagram Stories, Janelle shared sweet family photos that were taken last Christmas when she and her six children spent the holiday together. Sharing that they were the last photos of her kids taken all together, Janelle captioned the photos with a sweet message to her late son, Garrison, who passed in March 2024.
“Miss you so much sweetheart,” Janelle (via People) shared. “I am so beyond grateful we were all together last year and got pictures.” In the second photo on her Instagram Story, Janelle shared a sweet, now heartbreaking, shot of Garrison kissing her on the cheek.
She’s Doing Her Best To Celebrate & Honor Her Son
Although Janelle’s been quick to take her time away from social media after her son’s passing earlier this year, she’s been clear that she feels comfortable sharing her thoughts about him, too.
Openly speaking directly to Garrison in her captions most of the time, Janelle has shared photos of him frequently and explained to followers that honoring him in this way feels good to her
She’s happy to talk about her son, though there’s always a heartbreaking edge to discussing his short life. Janelle has been open about her heartbreak on top of sharing fond memories to encapsulate her grief.
With this being the first Christmas without her son, many were wondering if Janelle would take time offline to cope with the grief she’s surely feeling, but the mother of six made it clear that talking about Garrison is helpful.
Spending the holidays with her kids in North Carolina, Janelle has been open about her plans and made it clear that she’s been working through things with her family by her side.
Although she’s been sharing her highlights on social media, Janelle, understandably, might be struggling more than she lets on, but her children are taking great care of her.
Janelle Celebrates Exciting Life Changes While Honoring Garrison

Losing a child is one of the most heartbreaking losses someone can ever experience. While she has shared some thoughts on social media and elsewhere, most people truly have no idea what Janelle has been dealing with this year. As a result of Garrison’s passing, the Sister Wives star is trying to hold on to her other children–Logan, Hunter, Gabriel, Madison and Savanah–even tighter now. She has paid tribute to Garrison numerous times in recent months, including on his birthday in October and Thanksgiving (the first big holiday without him) in November.
Despite the grief that Janelle (and the entire Brown family) has experienced for most of 2024, other aspects of her life are flourishing. She’s channeling that grief into productive avenues and making improvements with her life. Janelle recently bought property in North Carolina, which she’s super excited about since she can now put down roots in one specific location and channel her efforts into building a brand-new house she can call her own after leaving Kody.
On Sister Wives, she mentioned that she was looking at property in a couple different states and that she decided to withhold this information from Kody since it was none of his business. This isn’t the only way Janelle is sticking it to her ex. She also launched her own line of T-shirts that throws shade at Kody and highlights memorable quotes from Sister Wives. Sayings on her shirts include “Teflon Queen,” “Chose The Kids Chose The Dog” and “Rescue Your Own D*** Self.” So far, these products seem to be selling very well, and are getting positive reactions from Sister Wives fans.
She’s Doing What Feels Natural To Her
Although Janelle is having a festive Christmas holiday with her children, she’s been holding space to pay tribute to Garrison throughout the holiday season. Making it clear that she welcomes talk about Garrison and moments of reflection about him in her day-to-day life, Janelle has been doing everything she can to carry her family forward after the tragedy. Quick not to leave Garrison behind, she’s been spending time on and off social media to honor his memory, opening up about her late son in ways Sister Wives viewers likely didn’t see him from his short moments on screen.
