The person listed as Gabbie’s brother is not her brother. All of her 6 siblings are currently living. She does have 1 brother but his name is not Philip, it’s Samuel and he is the youngest out of the 7. https://familytron.com/gabbie-hanna/
Okay. So I read on some forum website that the supposed brother Philip was a stillborn, and judging by the date of the newspaper, was meant to be the child born next in line after Gabbie, instead of her sister Cecilia in 2002. Did not know this, not a common thing that is known. Disregard my reply but keep in note that she does have a living brother today and he is the youngest.
