Like the rest of the Brown family, Rainy has been struggling since the family homestead was destroyed in a wildfire. The west coast has been ravaged by fires over the last few years, and this one finally reached the family's rural getaway in Washington state, according to a report by The Blast. Rainy addressed the loss on Instagram in September, then took nearly three months away from the platform.
Still, there is plenty for the Alaskan Bush People family to be happy about, including the addition of new family members. Bear Brown and his wife have welcomed their son, River, and fans are excited to see how he fits into the family's unique lifestyle.
