Bray Wyatt first appeared on the WWE roster in 2010 as Husky Harris. He left a year later, but returned in 2013 as The Wyatt Family’s leader. His return to the sport boded well for him.
Wyatt won the WWE Championship and the Universal Championship three times, establishing his status in the WWE. Sadly, Wyatt died abruptly on August 24, after years of delighting fans in the ring, with all indicators pointing to a heart attack as the cause of death, however the details surrounding his death are still unknown.
Following his death, the whole WWE community came together, with several wrestlers extending their condolences to his family.
Wyatt’s fiancée, Joseann “JoJo” Offerman, and their two children survive him. Wyatt has children with his first marriage as well. WWE Hall of Famer Triple H broke the news on Twitter, noting that Wyatt’s father, Mike Rotunda, had called him.
Wyatt’s Life and the Family He Leaves Behind
Rotunda, like his son, was a professional wrestler. In fact, Wyatt hails from a long line of boxers, including his grandpa, Blackjack Mulligan, and his uncles, Barry and Kendall Windham. Wyatt, like his family, excelled in sports, capturing a wrestling championship at Hernando High School in Florida.
Wyatt and his ex-wife had two daughters, and he was frequently spotted spending time with his blended family.
Wyatt was also a promising high school football player who went on to play college football for a while. Wyatt had taken a hiatus from wrestling in January due to a case of Covid-19.
He was preparing for a successful return, with the wrestling league taking every measure to protect his health.
Unfortunately, Wyatt died of a heart attack before he could return to the ring. While his father has spoken out about his passing, his fiancée has failed to express her grief.
Wyatt and Offerman met following his divorce from his first wife in 2017, and the two planned to marry. They weren’t married until 2022.
Offerman shared their engagement on social media, writing on an image showing off her beautiful ring, “A million times YES! 😍😭 I love you Windham and I cant wait to marry you (even though it feels like we’re already married 😜) Here’s to forever ❤️.”
A year after announcing their engagement, Offerman and Wyatt, real name Windham Rotunda, welcomed their first child together. On May 18, 2019, Knash Sixx was born. A year later, on May 28, 2020, the couple had their second child, Hyrie Von.
Wyatt and his ex-wife had two daughters, and he was frequently spotted spending time with his blended family.
He also proudly published images of his children, with people remarking on how much his son resembles him. “He looks like a mini you!!” said one user on Instagram. Another fan said, “I love seeing the father side of bray.”
Another fan wrote, “Aww knash is such a cutie he looks like his daddy what a Precious pic!”
Wyatt’s death leaves his four children without a father. His two daughters are still in the care of his ex-wife, while his youngest two children are looked for by their mother.
