Mykell was raised in Brentwood, MO with his Grandmother, Kathleen Brown (Emom) who preceded him in death. He went to Mark Twain Elementary and Brentwood High School and graduated in 2013.

Mykell’s favorite activity was wrestling where he excelled and went to State 3 years in a row. Even though he never won state, he was extremely influential as an athlete and leader on his team. At the end of each season, he donated his shoes to an under classman wrestler that he felt excelled as a team leader and wrestler. His coach is setting up an award to continue this tradition.

After graduation, Mykell went into the Marine Corps and was stationed at Camp Pendleton in California.

Mykell met and fell in love “at first conversation" with Robin Elizabeth Micheli who became his wife on January 2, 2020. They enjoyed their life together with Riley, their spoiled dog whom he called his “baby girl”. The two enjoyed their patio garden, exploring new places, meeting new friends and eating good food. Mykell was dearly loved by everyone who met him and acquired numerous nicknames throughout his life including; Kells, Kelly Kell, Bam-bam and Pumpkin Head.

Mykell was reunited with his brother, Michael Hudspeth, Jr. (who preceded him in death), and Emom on November 3, 2020. He leaves to cherish his memory his wife Robin (Micheli) Hudspeth, his mother, Carlynn Brown Hudspeth, father, Michael Hudspeth, Sr., four sisters, LaSeanna Hudspeth, Mikia Hudspeth, Jazlynn (Hudspeth) Tate and Raven Hudspeth; half sisters and brothers, Seantell, Precious, Joann, Michael and Malik as well as a host of aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces, nephews, brothers in arms, and friends.
