According to a report, Crittendon has been unwell for a while. She constantly experienced heartburn, plus she was struggling with diabetes, kidney issues, and blood pressure issues. While these conditions could be the reason behind her death, the significant cause remains under investigation.
The news of her passing was shared by her sister Misty on Facebook, though the post has since been deleted. In her heartfelt tribute, Misty wrote about the profound loss, saying, “You were robbed of your life at such a tender age.”
“You left before anyone could tell you goodbye. How much we love you, how amazing you are, and how proud we are of you for staying sober through some of the toughest parts of your life,” she added.
She continued, “I promise you I will love life in your honor. These babies will always know how much you love them, how amazing you are, how special you are, how much you sacrificed and overcame for them, everything and nothing short of it.”

Just so you know, Autumn Crittendon’s death came after another recent death of the same show’s alum, Sean Garinger. Sean Garinger died in an ATV accident earlier this year at age 20. His mother, Mary Hobbs, noted that the tragic incident occurred when he was moving the ATV to help her park, and the ground gave way due to rain and mud.
Hobbs added that the ATV then flipped and “crushed” Garinger’s skull. In her statement, she recounted, “I ran to neighbors, trying to get someone to help me get the ATV off of him. No one answered. I ran back to him. By that time, I realized he wasn’t alive anymore.”
Notably, Garinger was featured on season 6 of “16 and Pregnant” and shared two children with Selena Gutierrez. Authorities are urging anyone with information regarding Autumn Crittendon’s death to contact the Henrico Police at 804-501-5000 or report anonymously to Crime Stoppers at (804) 780-1000 or through P3tips.com.
