Jenna and Mitchell Brotherson celebrated their fourth wedding anniversary in September, but the wedding almost didn’t happen. The couple broke up seven months before, leaving Jenna devasted. One day after their breakup, Mitchell had a skiing accident and didn’t recall their split. If it weren’t for his severe concussion, they might not have gotten married at all.

Jenna Shared A TikTok About Mitchell’s Concussion Helping Them Get Married
In her video, Jenna explained that she’d broken up with Mitchell and felt heartbroken, but she wanted to stay friends. However, his skiing accident left him with no memory of the breakup. He called and texted her after paramedics arrived and asked her to pick him up because he couldn’t drive.
“Mitch kept messaging me and trying to hang out after his concussion, and I was confused as to why he would keep messaging me because we had broken up. I thought that maybe he took the statement of staying friends really seriously. It even was to the point when I told him that my roommates and I had a hard day, and he came and brought us ice cream,” Jenna told People.
She realized she wanted to be with Mitchell after all, and she told him she wanted to get back together.
Jenna recalled to People, “I told him about how we were in my car and what I said to him and what he said back. He told me he didn’t remember any of that except for chatting in the car. But he didn’t remember what we chatted about. He thought it was super funny, and I was relieved. It made it easy to get back together because, to him, we never weren’t together!”
Mitchell proposed a few months later. Thanks to his concussion, the pair married on September 4, 2020. It’s a story they will never forget.
