Garrison had a good relationship with Janelle, but his relationship with his father, Kody, was complicated. During the pandemic, Kody and Robyn Brown's changed interactions with the family led to Garrison feeling that his father was being too strict with isolation and social distancing rules. Kody, known for his control issues, stopped talking to Garrison and Gabe after feeling they owed him an apology. On a recent episode of Sister Wives, Garrison mentioned that he no longer had a relationship with his father and didn't see one forming in the future.

As Sister Wives season 19 approaches, the Brown family will be deeply impacted by Garrison's tragic passing. His parents and siblings will have to navigate through the grief of losing him, a challenging process. While details about his passing are still limited, the news has already shocked fans of the show, leaving them saddened for the entire family.
