Matt Brown’s Ex-Girlfriend Urged Alaskan Bush People Star to Seek Professional Help Before His Death

Matt Brown’s ex-girlfriend, Jamie, reportedly tried hard to get him help in the months before his tragic death. According to a new report from TMZ, Jamie encouraged the Alaskan Bush People star to seek professional support, believing he needed more help than she could provide in their relationship. Sources say she cared deeply for him even after they split and continued to support him as best she could during a very difficult period.

The report says Jamie felt overwhelmed by the emotional weight of being Matt’s main source of support. While she wanted to be there for him, she reportedly believed he needed outside help to deal with his struggles. Even after the breakup, she allegedly remained hopeful that he could work through his demons and that they might one day repair their relationship.

Insiders emphasized that the breakup was not Jamie’s fault and described her as fully committed to Matt’s well-being. They said she invested significant time and energy into helping him through his darkest moments, but ultimately could not carry that burden alone. Multiple sources also reportedly described Jamie as a positive influence in his life, calling her sweet, quiet, patient, and supportive.

The new details come after reports that Matt had been struggling for years before his death by suicide. Though he was estranged from his family at the time, his loved ones remain devastated by the loss. The news has also been especially painful for Jamie, who reportedly cared deeply for him and tried to get him the help he needed.

Those close to the situation say Jamie was a blessing in Matt’s life and did everything she could to support him. Her efforts reportedly included urging him to reach out for professional help and standing by him during a painful chapter in his life. Sources made clear that she should not be blamed for the breakup or for the tragic outcome.

The situation has left friends, family, and supporters grieving Matt’s death and reflecting on the importance of mental health support. While the relationship ended, Jamie’s concern for him apparently never did, and those speaking about her say she remained compassionate and loyal until the end.
