Janelle Brown has been an integral part of Sister Wives for years and is even a fan favorite. The mother of six has been the calmest of the bunch, especially when it came to Kody Brown's over-the-top ideas. As a fan favorite, Janelle will likely return to the hit TLC series for the upcoming Sister Wives season 18.
As the second wife of Kody, Janelle has always been a very hard worker. Janelle was one of the primary breadwinners for the large polygamous family throughout the time they were married. Through the years, the Sister Wives star has shared her trials and tribulations when it came to her relationship with Kody, often pushing her feelings aside. With the latest season showing just how unhappy Janelle has been, the next season will likely show a happier side to her now that she finally left Kody.
Janelle Brown's Background
Janelle, maiden name, Schriever, grew up in Bountiful, Utah, where she attended Bountiful High School. Janelle was born on May 6, 1969, making her current age 53 years old.
