Janelle Brown has starred on Sister Wives since 2010, and we're about to explain why she pleases some fans but annoys others. She's embarked on a summer RV adventure and fought with fellow wives Meri Brown, Christine Brown, and Robyn Brown, so Sister Wives audiences have witnessed the best and worst of Janelle. No reality star is perfect. Therefore, it's no surprise that some of the show's viewers love Janelle, while others find fault with her.
Janelle is Kody Brown's second wife. Kody and Janelle got married on January 17, 1993, almost three years after Kody and Meri tied the knot. Before Janelle was married to Kody, she was married to Meri's brother, Adam Barber. Through Adam, Janelle gained insight into Meri and Kody's marriage. Eventually, Janelle and Adam split and Janelle joined her in-law's marriage. Janelle's relationship with Kody is even more complicated due to the fact that Janelle's mother has married into the Brown family. This means that Janelle and Kody are step-siblings.
Through their 28-year spiritual union, Janelle and Kody have welcomed six children together. They also have two grandchildren that fans think Kody never sees. Janelle has experienced feelings of loneliness and isolation, just like her fellow sister wives. However, Kody and Janelle appear to have one of the best relationships of the group of partners.
Janelle Brown's Independent Spirit Is Praised
While Kody might favor Janelle because of how well they get along, fans love Janelle for the way she has branched out from her husband. Janelle's career has helped her stand out from the other sister wives. When the Browns moved to Las Vegas, Janelle got her Nevada real estate license. During this time. Kody was struggling to support his large family. Janelle stepped up to the plate by earning money. Unfortunately, Janelle's job in real estate didn't bring in a lot of cash. However, she is still revered by fans for her independent spirit. On top of working as a real estate agent, Janelle has also leaned into her adventurous side. Over the summer, Janelle decided to take a risk and live in an RV while she was in between homes. Fans who appreciate Janelle love her free-spirited ways.
Some Fans Think Janelle Brown's Cold To Other Sister Wives
On the other hand, Sister Wives viewers are not fond of the way that Janelle treats Meri, Christine, and Robyn. Audiences think that Janelle is selfish and allege that she's abusive to her fellow sister wives. Janelle's actions during the end of season 15 particularly irritated fans. Christine was feeling depressed and expressed her desire to move back to Utah. Instead of taking a sympathetic approach to Christine's feelings, Janelle showed a selfish attitude by not supporting the other Sister Wives star. One Reddit user left a comment that underscored the general frustration that viewers who don't like Janelle feel. The fan remarked that Janelle's actions "felt detached and cold." The Reddit user also called Janelle "twofaced" for claiming that the sister wives should support one another while leaving Christine on her own during a trying time.
Janelle's Sister Wives experience has its pros and cons. Janelle's adventurous and independent spirit has made her a favorite among many fans, but her callous treatment of at least one sister wife has made viewers rally against her. Regardless of fans' differing perceptions of Janelle, she is an essential part of the Sister Wives family.
