The Real Housewives of Dallas star Brandi Redmond is feeling a range of emotions today — something she describes as “thankful yet pain” as she mourns the sad passing of her mother-in-law, Jill Marie Redmond, who passed away in a car accident that her 9-yr-old daughter, Brinkley, who was also in the vehicle at the time, survived.
On Saturday, the 42-yr-old Bravo star took to her Instagram page to share the heartbreaking news as she paid a tribute to her husband Bryan Redmond’s mother.
“My husbands beautiful mom has gone on to be with our Savior and my sister in laws said it best…so I PLEASE ask that you keep my family in your prayers during this difficult time,” wrote Brandi alongside a photo of Jill and her three daughters – Lauren, Megan, and Kristen.
She added, “I ask that you lift my sweet Brinkley up as she continues to heal and that God protects her heart and eyes from this tragedy. I am so thankful for her life. This is probably the most thankful yet pain I’ve ever felt.”
