The 23-year-old was also commended for his love for his parents and his dedication to his faith.<\/p>\n

“Robert loved his parents with a fierce and unwavering devotion, and his mother was his closest confidante,” the obituary read.<\/p>\n

Mary Cosby Broke Her Silence On Her Son’s Sudden Death<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Mary, 53, broke her silence in the days after Robert’s death was made public.<\/p>\n

“Our beloved son Robert Jr. has been called home to the Lord,” Mary wrote. “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.”<\/p>\n

According to a previous report from The Blast, “Real Housewives of Atlanta” alum Cynthia Bailey recalled being “paralyzed” by Robert’s death before revealing Mary was learning to process the grief.<\/p>\n

“I think there\u2019s levels, there\u2019s shock, there\u2019s just processing the reality of the situation,” she said. “I know I\u2019m doing a horrible job of trying to explain this to you guys, but I just don\u2019t know any other way to do it. I just wanted to recognize that we are all supporting Mary Cosby and her family. This was a huge hit for the Bravo universe. She\u2019s such a big part of it.”<\/p>\n

Mary And Robert Speak About The Latter’s Addiction Struggles<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

Robert’s death came a year and a half after the young adult opened up to his mother about his addiction struggles.<\/p>\n

During an emotional episode, Robert admitted to using Xanax, sharing that he believed using the drug was enhancing his life.<\/p>\n

“I just took half to chill me out, and then I had an Adderall to balance out the Xanax. \u2026 When I get high, it’s like adding seasoning to [my life],” she said.<\/p>\n

“Then, I started doing Xanax with Acid, and then Molly with Xanax. I really like Xanax, so I mix it with everything. Xanax and cocaine. You know the regular 30mg Oxys? I noticed \u2026 this was, like, a turning point for me. I was taking 10 at once, and I couldn’t even feel it,” he said.<\/p>\n

Shortly after the 2024 episode aired, Mary discussed her son’s struggles and revealed her primary focus was on her son’s recovery.<\/p>\n

“I don’t believe in judging people. I’m just not a judger. I don’t like judging people, and I don’t like to do it. \u2026 If he’s opening up enough to tell me something this crucial, then why would I judge? I have no choice but to sit there and receive it and accept it and hope that I can help him,” she said.<\/p>\n
