Maddie Brown Reveals How Daughter’s Name Is Tribute To Garrison
When Garrison Brown passed away in March 2024, the Sister Wives family was shattered. They all gathered together to honor him but the hole never left their hearts. Since he passed from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, his sister, Maddie Brown Brush spoke openly about mental health. She wanted to ensure that his legacy was kept alive but that no one else suffered as he did. It was hard to find a new normal but she tried very hard and eventually shared that she was expecting her fourth child. Garrison loved being an uncle and was great to her oldest kids, Axel and Evie K.
Maddie gave birth to her third child, daughter Joey, in early 2023. Then, she announced that she was expecting baby number four and shared it was another girl. She and her family were thrilled but the baby did not want to come. At forty-one weeks pregnant, Maddie made a quick video giving an update as to where the baby stood. She revealed she had one more appointment the following week and did not want to go beyond forty-two weeks. On March 14th, Emilia Estelle arrived but it seems her name is a tribute to Garrison.
Sister Wives fans quickly noticed that Estelle means star in Latin. They immediately believed that was a nod to Garrison and his love for stargazing:
- She’s adorable, I love her name especially Estelle. Is it like a tribute to Garrison since Estelle means Star in Latin. Either way her and her name are adorable.
After that comment, Maddie Brown Brush hopped in and confirmed that was how Emilia got her middle name:
- that is exactly what it is. 🩵
