Sister Wives star Janelle Brown battled with Kody Brown over parenting as the kids got older, and the late Garrison Brown purchasing a home was made possible by one of those battles.

But today, Janelle embarked on a task that no parent wants to undertake, selling Garrison’s home after his untimely death. The mom of six from the TLC series buried her deceased son earlier this year after his death from suicide. Today, she is selling the house he proudly purchased back in 2021.

But this house has a little more memories associated with it than Janelle’s dead son. She went against Kody Brown’s wishes a few years back. So, purchasing the home became possible after Janelle battled with Kody Brown.

Sister Wives: Janelle Brown Reminisces About Son’s Final Days

It wasn’t all that long ago when Garrison Brown proudly purchased his own home. Then this Sister Wives‘ son filled it with roommates and lived the American dream as a young adult. But unbeknownst to Janelle Brown and Kody Brown, as well as his siblings, he also fought the demons within himself while living in that home.

Those demons came along with substance abuse. While his Sister Wives family knew Garrison suffered in the past from substance abuse issues, he seemed to have a handle on things before his tragic death. Janelle and his siblings reported he was even future-oriented about his career.

In her latest interview, Janelle Brown never saw Garrison’s suicide coming. She said, “He didn’t ever express any kind of extreme sad feelings. In fact, he was very funny, very upbeat. He had a career path that he was excited about”.

 Son Made Good Investment…

Janelle Brown said in a recent interview, “We just had no idea that he was in that place”. She added that “substance abuse” likely altered Garrison’s state of mind before his suicide.

Garrison Brown was in touch with his Sister Wives family, he would talk and message many of his siblings, along with Janelle on a regular and frequent basis. So, as Janelle wades through the healing process, another task waits for her.

And she took that on recently by listing the home that Garrison purchased back in 2021. He paid $321,000 for his Flagstaff home. Now three years later she listed it for $425,000. This speaks to this son making a good investment with this home purchase. But it wasn’t an easy purchase for him, as it caused problems with Kody Brown at the time he tried to save up for this.

Sister Wives: Janelle Fought Kody For Leg Up on Life

Kody Brown took a hard stand with Janelle Brown about her boys. COVID made Kody a shut-in, and he had some strict rules for his family. With Janelle’s sons at the prime age for girlfriends and socializing, Kody Brown gave Janelle an ultimate on the Sister Wives series.

He wanted her to kick the boys out if they didn’t follow the rules. Janelle couldn’t do that, she wanted them to be able to live at home and save for a house of their own. She thought in today’s world, the new generation needed help in getting a leg up when starting adult life.

Kody gave her the ultimatum, if the boys stayed and kept socializing, he would not come over. The applause from Sister Wives viewers was heard around the nation’s living room when Janelle put her foot down. Despite what Kody wanted, she refused to tell her boys to leave. Then a year or so later, Garrison Brown purchased his own home.

While he enjoyed this house, he also died in that home by suicide. So, Janelle Brown’s task of selling the home likely weighs heavy on her today as the new TLC series rolled out its debut on Sunday.
