Sister Wives’ Janelle Brown has admitted she “wasn’t heartbroken” when her and her co-star’s marriages with Kody Brown fell apart.
Janelle Brown has opened up about the breakdown of her marriage to Kody Brown as she admitted to still have some “affection” for him.
The Sister Wives star was in a polygamous marriage with Kody and his three other wives – Christine, Meri and Robyn – that played out in the hit TLC show.
But their marital bliss did not last long as the family began to crumble in 2021 – leading to the collapse of his three marriages to Christine, Meri and Janelle within 14 months.
Now, Janelle has spoken out on her relationship with Kody, telling PEOPLE that everything has been “all friendly” following the breakup announcement.
“I still feel some affection for him, but I don’t want to be married to him and I don’t want to be with him, but I have no hard feelings,” she revealed.
“I really don’t have any hard feelings.”
And the way things ended meant Janelle wasnt devastated over the split, as she had plenty of time to process it before it officially happened.
She admitted: “I wasn’t heartbroken when the marriage fell apart, maybe because we’d been drifting apart for so long.
“It was just a bang that let us drift apart all the way.”
The progressive polygamist family was first introduced to screens in 2010 and throughout 18 seasons viewers have witnessed the ups and downs of the dynamics.
While Kody followed his father’s steps set by the Mormon Church, the show captured cracks in the marriages which eventually led to its demise.
Following Kody’s first legal and spiritual marriage to Meri in April 1990, Janelle joined the relationship in 1993 with Christine and Kody getting married the following year.
In season one, fans were able to watch his fourth nuptials in season one as the star tied the knot with Janelle in 2010 with a spiritual ceremony.
Although the blended family seemed to overcome their challenges, viewers were rocked to learn Christine and Kody were parting ways in 2021 after welcoming six children together.
Janelle then followed suit in October 2022, a jaw-dropping revelation she confirmed in the season 17 Tell-All.
