Mary Cosby Gets Support From ‘RHOSLC’ Cast At Son’s Funeral

Per reports, the entire cast of the hit Bravo reality series was in attendance, as well as some other fellow “Housewives” from other franchises.

Per Us Weekly, on Monday, March 9, during the latest episode of “Radio Andy Live,” Bravo boss Andy Cohen revealed that Lisa Barlow, Meredith Marks, Heather Gay, Whitney Rose, Bronwyn Newport, Angie Katsanevas, and Britani Bateman were all present at Robert Cosby Jr.’s funeral on Saturday, March 7.

The “RHOSLC” cast weren’t the only “Housewives” who showed up to support Mary Cosby, as Cohen shared that “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Kyle Richards, and “Real Housewives of Atlanta” alums Cynthia Bailey and Sheree Whitfield also paid their respects in person.

Members from the “RHOSLC” production team were also said to be in attendance, but Cohen did not share whether the funeral was covered for the upcoming seventh season of the show, which resumed filming last week.

Towards the end of “Watch What Happens Live! on February 26, Andy Cohen appeared visibly emotional as he expressed support for Mary Cosby, following the death of Robert Jr.

“Before we go, I want to send all my love and heartfelt condolences to Mary Cosby and her family after news broke yesterday about the tragic passing of Mary’s son Robert Jr.,” Cohen said on the show.

“This devastatingly sad news is every parent’s worst nightmare. My heart breaks for Mary. I will always appreciate getting a small window into the unconditional love between Mary and Robert Jr.,” he continued.

He went on to address Cosby’s parenting and her willingness to share her late son’s struggles with addiction with Bravo audiences.

“Mary, you did such a good job,” Cohen said. “I know their bravery and their vulnerability in sharing their story has helped and will continue to help countless people who are struggling. Rest in peace, Robert Jr., and thanks.”

Per his online obituary, Robert was described as a “bright, loving, and gifted young man whose compassion and gentle spirit touched everyone he met,” who also had a “passion” for learning through his studies in various states, including Utah, Florida, and New York.

He “loved fashion” and was an “elite-class gamer and played the piano like an angel.”

“Robert loved his parents with a fierce and unwavering devotion, and his mother was his closest confidante,” the obituary read of the 23-year-old.

“His first and greatest love, however, was for God. Baptized in Jesus’ Name and filled with the Holy Ghost, he was cherished as the First Son of the Faith Temple Pentecostal Churches,” the obituary continued.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, on March 4, it was confirmed that production for season 7 of “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” had resumed, one week after Robert Jr. was found dead of an apparent drug overdose.

Per the outlet, Cosby is currently not filming with the rest of the cast, and Bravo is said to be following her lead regarding when she is ready to return.

The sixth season of the show previously wrapped up in early February with the conclusion of the three-part reunion. “RHOSLC” generally films throughout the spring and summer, and typically airs during the fall season in September or October.
