Mary Cosby is finding solace in work as she continues to grieve over the death of her only son, Robert Jr.

The Bravo show resumed filming earlier this month without the star, but now Cosby is back to film the rest of season seven with her fellow cast members, per TMZ.

Cosby had always planned to get back to the set while continuing to lean on her faith and friends, according to the outlet.

Producers reassured the star that she could work at whatever pace she felt comfortable with.

Robert Jr died on February 23, according to police in Salt Lake City, Utah, who responded to a reported drug overdose and began a death investigation. An official cause of death has yet to be released. 

A private funeral was held for Cosby's son on March 7, what Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey described as 'spirited' and full of 'love.'

Four days after her son's death, Cosby took to her Instagram Stories to post a throwback picture of herself with her son when he was a youngster. 'I'm going to miss you, Bubs,' she wrote alongside heart, prayer and weeping emojis.

Her touching post was accompanied by Jessica Mauboy's cover Time After Time, and Cosby added hashtags for 'God First,' 'Love' and 'Forever.'

Her Real Housewives family, which seems to be constantly mired in drama, responded warmly in the comments.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards wrote, 'Beautiful picture, Mary. You're an amazing Mom and gave him so much love. May his memory be a blessing.'

'He looks just like you. You will see him in you so much. He will always be with you. Love you, Mary, and God got you both,' The Real Housewives of Dubai star Chanel Ayan added.

Kandi Burruss, Heather Dubrow, Whitney Rose, Cynthia Bailey, Gretchen Rossi, Lisa Barlow, Sheree Whitfield, Candiace Dillard-Bassett, Crystal Kung Minkoff and Shamea Morton also offered the Cosby family their deepest condolences.

While The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City is known to have some of the most intense and chaotic drama of the franchise, the cast has mobilized in support of Cosby, who had a premonition her son would die weeks before his passing.

Cosby and her husband Robert Sr shared a statement with the Daily Mail, asking for 'peace' for their late son.

'Our beloved son Robert Jr. has been called home to the Lord. Though our hearts ache, we take comfort in God's promise and in knowing he is finally at peace,' the couple said.

'We are grateful for your prayers and trust in the Lord to carry us through this time of sorrow.'

Robert's death comes just weeks after he was released from Salt Lake County Metro Jail. He had served two months behind bars after pleading guilty to assault and violating a protective order.

His attorney Clayton Simms told People at the time that Robert 'expresses deep regret regarding his prior actions and acknowledges that his past behavior demonstrates poor judgment.'

Cosby's family life was occasionally featured on the show and Robert appeared on the Bravo series several times over the years.

During season four, Cosby revealed she had learned that her son had secretly married his girlfriend Alexiana Smokoff without her knowledge. The wedding reportedly took place in August 2022 at a Utah courthouse.

Robert and Alexiana's alleged struggles with substance use were also featured as part of Cosby's storyline on the show. In November, Alexiana filed for divorce.

Robert had a history of legal issues and was arrested in Utah in September on multiple alleged charges, including trespassing and assault.

He was previously arrested in 2022 for driving under the influence, at which time police said he did not have a valid license and failed to follow traffic laws. 

He later pleaded guilty to the DUI charge.

During part two of The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City season six reunion, which aired in January, Cosby spoke about her son's arrest and time in jail.

'I know he's somewhere where he's not using,' she said. 'Unfortunately, he's learning the hard way, but I'm okay with it.' Still, she said, as a mother, 'you don't wanna see your kid suffer, but I know it's good, and I'd rather him be there than dead.'
