Robert Cosby Jr. passed away on February 23, 2026, at the age of 23. Mary Cosby and Robert Sr. confirmed Robert Cosby Jr.’s death to TMZ, saying,
“Our beloved son Robert Jr. has been called home to the Lord. Though our hearts ache, we take comfort in God’s promise and in knowing he is finally at peace. We are grateful for your prayers and trust in the Lord to carry us through this time of sorrow.”
Jennifer Aydin wrote on Instagram, “There are no words that can comfort the loss of a child.
I’ve never met Mary in person, but as Housewives, we all knew her and her impact🙏🏻
And I know the word of God comes through her, we all heard it…
And we all saw how she loved her only son, Robert Jr.”

He had completed rehab in 2024 but continued to face challenges and legal issues, including arrests and jail time.
Robert Jr. was best known for appearing alongside his mother on the reality show The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City. On the series, especially in Seasons 4–6, his personal struggles with addiction, relationships, and family life were part of the show’s storyline.
