In addition to her personal journey, Passante faced health challenges when she contracted COVID-19 in 2020. She documented her experience on social media, detailing symptoms such as headaches, congestion, and loss of taste. Fortunately, she made a full recovery and was seen in public again by July of that year. Later, in 2022, she revealed that she had Hashimoto’s disease, an autoimmune condition affecting the thyroid, which sometimes causes her voice to sound raspy.
Beyond reality TV, Passante has explored new opportunities. She has become a co-host on the Newport Beach podcast Happening Now with Hammer, where she discusses various topics, from entertainment to local culture. Her quick wit, which made her a fan favorite on Storage Wars, continues to shine in her social media interactions. She remains active online, engaging with followers and sharing glimpses of her life as a single mother. While she respects her children’s privacy by keeping them off social media, she has expressed pride in their accomplishments.
Through all the ups and downs, Brandi Passante has shown resilience, embracing new opportunities while staying true to herself. Whether on reality TV, social media, or podcasting, she continues to connect with her audience in an authentic and engaging way.
