Tracy Brown Bering Obituary: Understanding the Circumstances Surrounding Her Death

Towards the end of Lifetime’s latest true crime thriller, Bad Behind Bars: Jodi Arias, a message appears on the screen that reads “In loving memory of Tracy Brown Bering,” alluding to her demise. 

However, the message fails to provide any further details about her passing. As a result, social media users have been left wondering about the circumstances surrounding her death, as there seem to be no reports available about it. 

Bad Behind Bars is a sequel to Jodi Arias: Dirty Little Secret, which was released in 2013, and features Tricia Black as Donavan Bering and Lynn Rafferty as Tracy Brown, whose death is hinted at during the movie’s final moments.

Has Tracy Brown Bering passed away or is she still alive? 

According to a post by Understanding Crime on Facebook, Tracy Brown, who married Donavan Bering in 2018, died by suicide in December 2022. 

Her mother, Yolanda Ducharme, revealed that Tracy had been struggling with depression, which ultimately led to her death. Yolanda expressed her sorrow, saying that she couldn’t help her daughter and that the depression had taken her. 

Understanding Crime quotes Yolanda as saying, “Tracy, I miss you. I love you. Depression took you from us. I try to get through the day. I try to understand but I’m not sure I ever will.” Yolanda also said, “I love you baby girl, may your soul rest peacefully. Always and forever, you will hold a place in my heart.”

When did Yolanda Ducharme announce the death of Tracy Brown? 

On Sunday, December 4, 2022, Yolanda posted on Facebook that her daughter Tracy had passed away. She requested that her family be kept in everyone’s thoughts and prayers. 

The post has garnered many comments from people who knew Tracy, offering their condolences and prayers. 

A minute before this post, Yolanda had shared a post referring to Tracy as her “baby girl” and her “first daughter,” whom she will always hold in her heart.

On December 31, 2022, Yolanda posted on Facebook, expressing her hope for the new year to bring new love, joy, laughter, and memories, as the past two years had taken so much away from them all. 

Recently, her nephew Aj Brown, aged 35, also passed away, and she shared the information about a GoFundMe page for him on social media.

Donavan Bering, Tracy Brown’s partner, also battled cancer recently. 

According to Understanding Crime’s report on Tracy’s death, Donavan was diagnosed with cancer after their marriage and during the period when the couple was dealing with the fallout from their strained relationship with Jodi Arias. 

While Donavan underwent chemotherapy, Tracy was struggling with mental illness.

Despite this, Donavan reportedly expressed gratitude for Tracy’s care, stating that she had taken excellent care of him. 

However, the outlet notes that clinical depression is a challenging condition.

As depicted in Bad Behind Bars: Jodi Arias, Donavan and Tracy got married in 2018, and their marriage lasted about four years until Tracy’s passing.
