Sister Wives' Janelle Brown Reveals Money Drama

It seems that, as far as the Brown family’s financial matters are concerned, whatever happens in Las Vegas definitely remains there.

Over the past two decades since Kody Brown and his wives Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn lived together in Utah and later on a Las Vegas cul-de-sac, they had a shared pool of resources. They would help out whoever required financial assistance. This was discussed by Janelle during the TLC series’ Feb 2 episode.

Because Logan Brown, who is 30 years old, Madison Brush, 29, and Hunter Brown, 27, are the children of a woman, she decided to sell her six-bedroom house in Las Vegas for $574,900 in April 2019. She then used the money from that sale to assist someone named Robyn in purchasing a five-bedroom home in Flagstaff, Ariz., several months later.

Janelle said, ‘I had assumed that if we invested in Robyn’s home, a time would arrive when it would be our turn – mine, Christine’s, or Meri’s – to benefit from it. But that situation never materialized as expected.’

Instead, Janelle went on to explain, “Suddenly, it seemed as though the resources were no longer intended for the well-being of the entire family.

In her conversation, Janelle mentioned that the topic of their changed financial strategy has been quite sensitive for Kody and Robyn. She added that they often attempt to rewrite the past regarding money payments.

However, Kody feels it’s his ex wife who has a fuzzy memory surrounding their stance.

Initially, Kody asserted that he had attempted to aid Janelle in purchasing a house, but she became upset with him instead. It seems she prefers the RV way of life, he suggested.

Or, rather, she didn’t want to live in a home with questionable karma.

In the episode, she explained that Kody often states, “I proposed to assist you in purchasing a house,” but what he truly meant was that he suggested she buy Christine’s house, which wasn’t something she preferred.

Instead, she opted to set down a recreational vehicle on Coyote Pass, their 14-acre property in Arizona which they had bought for $820,000 upon moving there in 2018.

Despite the fact that Kody and his spouses didn’t carry out their plan for constructing their ideal property, what Robyn mentioned was that they continued to encourage and support each other instead.

This discussion is challenging for me,” Kody’s last wife admitted when asked about the family’s spending plan, “as I feel somewhat taken aback, considering we’ve been working together for so long and I’ve contributed significantly during the early years. For me, it seems unfair, like this isn’t balanced.

Her husband tends to concur, suggesting that his former partner’s sudden openness about finances likely contributed to their breakups, as Christine announced their split in 2021, Janelle disclosed her separation from Kody in December 2022, and Meri did the same not long after.

He maintained that since the group had disbanded, people seemed to be expressing concerns about not receiving something or giving something, but he hadn’t. He clarified that they were simply ensuring everyone received their fair share of whatever needed to be distributed.

Without a doubt, it’s not a new occurrence that he has shared opinions with his former partners regarding their financial management. Take a look at their discussions about money, as well as the other revelations they’ve made during this current season.

Kody Brown expressed his readiness to part ways with his first wife, Meri Brown, soon after their 1990 wedding. However, as he mentioned, “Meri, when we move to Flagstaff, this will be a fresh start for us,” suggesting improvement, he had been giving her false hopes, according to what she shared in the Sept. 15 premiere, hinting at their 2018 move. Meri implied that Kody has been doing this for many years, leading her on with promises of change and renewal.

She expressed her primary concern as his poor communication, including his feelings, desires, and dislikes, along with the narrative he’s maintained throughout their relationship.

Kody admitted that his actions might have sent conflicting signals, but once he began working on projects, he found himself questioning why he would do so. He clarified, “I wouldn’t pursue a relationship or dating with her now.

Either way, Meri’s friends were thrilled when she finally pulled the plug in early 2023.

She admitted, “They essentially said, ‘We’re here for you, we’ve got your back. It’s high time,'” she confessed. Removing her blinders, she now believes that he had been subtly encouraging her to leave for years by claiming he didn’t love her, “Because if I depart on my own accord, he won’t be seen as the villain since he didn’t walk away.

Many years had passed since the family acquired a 14-acre plot of land intended for construction in Flagstaff, Ariz., when Kody expressed during the season premiere that he was ready to let the project fade away. As they hadn’t yet paid off the full purchase price of $820,000 (reportedly settled in 2023), he suggested to his remaining wife Robyn Brown, “I’d almost prefer to abandon it or sell it and then restart somewhere new.

As for Robyn, “I can’t talk about that,” she responded. “That is so not where I’m at.”

Previously, Janelle Brown shared with TopMob News that they gradually drifted away from each other. However, it was primarily Kody’s shortcomings in his parental role towards some of their children that led her to decide to part ways.

The turning point for me occurred when his relationship with my kids deteriorated to the point where he didn’t seem willing to go the extra mile to mend it,” shared the mom with Logan Brown, Madison Brown Brush, Hunter Brown, Garrison Brown, Gabriel Brown, and Savanah Brown. “At that moment, I realized that was what had been keeping me rooted here.

In the Nov. 3 episode, Kody suggested reconciliation, but for Janelle, it was an absolute no.

She stated that it seemed impossible for her to make peace with him and allow him to be part of her children’s lives. Instead, she firmly chooses her kids.

Kody provided a reason as to why he wasn’t putting more effort into repairing the strained relationships he had with some of his grown-up kids.

In the September 15th episode, he expressed his feelings of not belonging within the family anymore. Even though he was still legally married to Robyn and co-parenting their five children – Dayton Brown, Aurora Brown, Breanna Brown, Solomon Brown, and Ariella Brown – he also mentioned having limited connections with some of the other kids. This left him wondering how to navigate this complex situation, as it didn’t feel like a traditional family unit to him.

In the premiere of season 19, Robyn admitted that their marriage was struggling more than ever, despite it being the first time they were truly monogamous after 14 years together. She explained that things have been difficult between them, and Kody is uncertain whether to blame himself or one of his other wives. He seems to be feeling a lot of rejection, which has led him to question if Robyn will reject him as well.

As a consequence, she disclosed, “I’m constantly vigilant. I need to ensure he isn’t undermining our relationship.” The most challenging aspect, she concluded: “There’s little support available for the fact that I’m still married to a man who’s getting divorced multiple times.

Meanwhile, Kody was grappling with self-doubt, expressing, “I find it hard to face my reflection and tell myself, ‘Hey there, pal. I really like you.’

In the October 27 episode, Robyn observed that her ex-sister wives were advancing into a new phase, leaving her feeling as though she was the one who was left out or overlooked in their progress.

Including Madison, Janelle’s eldest child, in the group of kids Kody is not presently connected with is appropriate. As Janelle clarified during the opening episode, “I know there haven’t been any discussions between Maddie and her dad.” He hasn’t contacted her, she hasn’t reached out to him, and they don’t have a relationship. Essentially, she has disregarded them both.

What Janelle pointed out is that Kody seems to be maintaining a casual relationship with Maddie’s children, Axel, Evangalynn, and Josephine. She expressed that she doesn’t think he should interact with them casually; instead, his involvement should be genuine and consistent if it’s going to happen.

Consequently, during the Sept. 22 episode, it was revealed that Kody had essentially stopped communicating with Maddie and her husband, Caleb Brush, when the family began to fall apart.

Without Kody being around or reaching out, Maddie has taken on a very protective role, as described by Janelle. She feels that until he can reliably appear without causing a scene, it might be best for everyone if they remain unaware of his presence.

Additionally, as Robyn has been advising Kody to reconcile, she mentioned, “It seems fitting for the children to take similar steps as well.

Currently, it appears that Kody is not prepared to mend the rift, expressing frustration that each conversation with his daughter seemed like fishing for gossip, leaving him feeling exhausted by it.

During their 32nd anniversary celebration, “He implied that he never truly loved me and felt like our marriage was more of an obligation,” Meri confided in her friend Brandi during the September 15 premiere. “To which I responded, ‘Kody, I know you cared for me.’

And if he didn’t, the mom to Leon Brown said in a confessional, why did he ever propose?

Why would a solitary young man decide to marry a solitary young woman if he didn’t feel genuine affection for her? It seems unfair, she thought, to select someone from among many and then claim, ‘I’ve chosen you in an attempt to manufacture love for the next 32 years’?” or more informally, “Why would a guy pick a girl he doesn’t love and then force himself to love her for decades just because they got married?

In a private conversation, Kody stated: “Meri is making some allegations. Well, let her say what she likes. I won’t be responding to them.

Though, he would share that they never enjoyed a honeymoon period.

He firmly stated during the October 20th broadcast that their marriage was struggling throughout its entire duration. He explained, “I had such strong bonds with Janelle, Christine, and Robyn, which is why I’m aware of it.

In hindsight, I realize I should have ended that long-term commitment about a quarter of a century back. However, fear held me captive, as I was under the impression that stepping out would jeopardize any future opportunities for marriage in my leadership role, due to the perception that parting ways too frequently might be perceived as discarding partners.

Despite being unsure whether to develop Coyote Pass or sell it, Janelle acknowledged that settling the Arizona property debt was a priority first. With Kody not open to discussing the matter, she expressed her concern to former sister wife Christine Brown, “I believe I’ll need legal representation,” she admitted on the September 22 episode. “Since I think that’s the only way I can possibly get any decision from him.

In her own words, Janelle admitted that since she isn’t legally married to Kody, she doesn’t possess any legal authority to lay claim to his property. She explained further that the situation isn’t as simple as just calling a lawyer for a divorce; rather, it’s complex because there’s no existing legal marriage between them.

Kody explained that he chose not to discuss the Arizona property with Janelle, as he had lost trust in her.

He emphatically stated during the September 22 episode, “When the appropriate time arrives, we will settle the property. I prefer not to share specifics about my actions or anything else at this point because I’m weary of disseminating information that gets distorted through the rumor mill of our fractured family.

A bit of a pot calling the kettle black, Janelle said in her own interview.

She confided, “He seems to spill secrets as easily as water from a basket, revealing details about his past relationships and multiple spouses which made me feel uncomfortable.

In times past, before their love started dwindling, they would combine their savings into a single fund.

In simpler terms, Janelle explained during the September 22 episode that we would do everything possible to aid one person, followed by uniting together to assist another person. This was the usual approach until around ten years ago. However, it seems like now everyone is focused on building their own estates instead.

When Robyn required a house in Arizona, everyone contributed towards purchasing a luxurious five-bedroom property worth $1.65 million, which had been put up for sale in August.

Initially, Robyn mentioned that the property would benefit the entire family. However, when Janelle proposed that they all be joint mortgage holders, she was met with resistance. Kody responded, “No, no, we must safeguard, understandably protect Robyn’s inheritance,” as Janelle remembered. Now that she is leaving the family, according to Janelle, she wants her share of the Coyote Pass earnings and hopes to recover some of the money she invested in Robyn’s house.

But that could be a tough sell.

In response, Robyn remarked, “After collaborating for such an extended period, it’s perplexing to me. And with Janelle claiming she’s due some compensation from them, I find myself wondering, ‘How exactly do you compute that? How do you arrive at that figure?’ It’s all rather puzzling.

Speaking about their ongoing financial struggles with Coyote Pass, Janelle noted that Kody often mentioned having multiple debts. However, she has observed him purchasing trailers and home decorations which suggests he has other resources. She commented on the art adorning Robyn and Kody’s house, saying, “I see all these things.” She acknowledged that she too has spent money on various items, but found it puzzling given their financial situation. In response, Kody explained that a large portion of his funds were allocated towards buying cars and insuring the children.

Although Janelle admitted she wasn’t clear about Kody and Robyn’s financial management, she often found herself astonished by the lavishness of Robyn’s backyard. It was always fully landscaped. Moreover, there were always various items at her home, which left Janelle saying, ‘Wow. Really?’

Ultimately, she expressed that he didn’t make her needs or desires a priority, which over time became increasingly evident, even to her grown children who grew frustrated, expressing something along the lines of, “Mom, what’s going on here?

As a die-hard admirer, I can tell you from my perspective that Robyn has always been meticulous about managing her finances following the breakdown of her initial marriage.

She admitted in the Sept. 22 episode that she hadn’t always been good with finances. In her younger years, she faced some tough challenges, and it was during her divorce that she learned to manage her money effectively and budget wisely. Regarding her fellow sister wives, she stated that they likely prioritized their spending differently than she did.

Currently, as revealed in the September 22 episode, Janelle admitted that she and Meri, Robyn, and Kody (parents of Aspyn Brown, Mykelti Brown Padron, Paedon Brown, Gwendlyn Brown, Ysabel Brown, and Truely Brown) don’t interact much with each other. She doesn’t anticipate this situation changing significantly in the near future.

Reflecting on the period when they lived together in four homes on a single cul-de-sac in Las Vegas, Kody remarked, “That was the best phase of my life. Things were running smoothly, and it was wonderful having Maddie and Caleb around. Caleb was more like family to me.

However, tensions arose in Arizona concerning coronavirus safety measures, causing disagreements. Later on, when his marriages ended, he mentioned that the relationships with his children deteriorated as well, stating that they turned sour due to these circumstances.

But Christine insisted their were issues well before she announced she was leaving in late 2021.

She pointed out during the September 22 broadcast that those kids had been feeling frustrated long before she departed. It seems her departure didn’t affect the dynamic between the father and his children, implying that Kody has the ability to mend his relationships with them.

Though it’ll definitely take some work.

Kody expressed his feelings, saying, “I’m still so upset about how I’ve been accused that I haven’t moved past it yet.” He further added, “I won’t accept blame for things my wife or ex-wife claims I did. I pray the day comes when our resentment fades and we can find forgiveness and love once more.

At the age of 21 and 19, Kody and Meri got married, but they admitted they weren’t very well acquainted with each other, either spiritually or legally. They eventually decided to file for divorce in 2014, so that Kody could legally adopt Robyn’s three oldest children from her previous marriage.

In our wedding, she appeared quite distinct and I believe there were some issues from her past that I wasn’t aware of. At first, I thought I could deal with it. Later on, he stated that everything seemed to be a source of conflict, expressing that he couldn’t endure a life where she was consistently upset with him.

Despite his desire to escape, he found himself unable to do so. Kody, in a plural marriage, explained, “If one wishes to remain faithful and adherent to our faith, divorce is not an option. It’s forbidden. Consequently, I was stuck in that relationship. However, it wasn’t that I yearned to depart from the relationship altogether. What I sought was to understand if we could salvage and mend it.

Therefore, due to the conflicting signals, he admitted that Meri believed they could sort things out. However, Kody clarified, every time they were together, “She wasn’t friendly, she wasn’t amusing, she wasn’t compassionate, she wasn’t engaging. I’m trying to be interested in her, but I’m growing tired.

As a faithful supporter, I can understand why Meri might feel deserted, but let it be known that she was not evicted by me. Instead, it was Christine, Janelle, and Meri who made the choice for me to depart from our shared home.

Despite the fact that neither Janelle nor Christine considered it necessary to legally dissolve their marriage with Kody, Meri sought a formal separation, known as a “release,” from their church towards the end of 2022.

In the September 22nd episode, she clarified that all four of us wives married Kody through our church. Technically we couldn’t all have legal marriages, but we referred to it as a covenant. Since we’re not planning any future marriages and I don’t want to be bound to him eternally if he doesn’t feel the same, I think it’s best to dissolve that bond completely. And now, I’m at a point where I want us to sever this relationship entirely.

Kody hesitated about the concept, mentioning that she wasn’t comfortable with “recognizing the power” wielded by the church officials.

Kody put it simply: “The harm is so immense that we can never make amends, regardless of the circumstances.” He further elaborated, “Therefore, I no longer wish to answer to this church or its complications. So, I plan to let Meri have her freedom and pursue her own path because if I’m resentful towards her, it leads to conflict. Frankly, I just want her to move on because it has taken her a long time to accept that our issues are long settled and resolved.

The holiday gift exchange discussion in 2021 turned sour for the 18 Brown children, as Christine described. “Matters took a turn for the worse,” she explained. “Kody, Robyn, and their kids formed one group, and they completely distanced themselves from Janelle, me, and our kids. The situation deteriorated significantly after this text conversation.

According to Robyn, her older children found the interaction to be emotionally uncomfortable and decided it would be best for them to distance themselves from the relationship. However, she clarified that this didn’t mean they wanted to cut off all contact or end the relationship entirely. Instead, they were expressing their feelings like, “Oops, this got messy.

For his part, Gabriel is hoping that they could find their way back to each other.

He admitted during the October 13 episode that what he desires most is rekindling a relationship with Robyn’s kids again. During middle school, Aurora was his preferred companion, and in high school, he would often reach out to Dayton. However, he’s not optimistic about forming a relationship with their father and Robyn.

Aurora made it clear that she had been informed repeatedly by various individuals under different circumstances since her mother married Kody in 2010, that she was not welcomed into the family. She emphasized that they did not view her as their sister and never considered her as such.

As an ardent admirer, I can’t help but echo the sentiments of Breanna when she mentioned that the parents, in my opinion, could have put more effort into fostering our familial bond. Regrettably, it seems that opportunity for a closer family connection never truly materialized.

But Christine isn’t sure how they could have opened their arms any wider.

Robyn’s children and Robyn were always invited to all events, she emphasized. In simpler terms, I could say, ‘They are more than welcome to drop by our house whenever they feel like it.’

Simultaneously, she mentioned, her daughter Ysabel Brown shared a strong bond with Robyn’s children, and Mykelti Brown Padron even resided with them for a while. She explained, “There were challenging periods, and my kids felt exasperated at times, but they regarded Robyn’s children as their siblings just as dearly.

Speaking enthusiastically about the freedom she experienced, Janelle expressed her thoughts on plural marriage as follows: “When it’s functioning well, you become part of this extraordinary family network, connected to an incredible community. You have a husband and share a wonderful bond with him, yet at the same time, I maintain my own independence. For me, plural marriage was truly an exceptional setup.

Kody, however, wouldn’t say “I do” to polygamy again.

In his opinion, expressed during the December 1st episode, polygamy can hinder emotional intimacy. He explained that it often leads to defensiveness, and what he truly desires is an emotionally open and intimate relationship with a woman. However, such a connection may be difficult to achieve in a polygamous setting.

According to Janelle, Kody found it more challenging to distribute his affection when the family moved from Las Vegas to Arizona in 2018.

In the September 29th episode, it was mentioned that Kody found living in Flagstaff less challenging, but occasionally required reminders to visit her house. On several occasions, he’d attempt to avoid by stating fatigue, to which she replied, “You can rest just as effectively at my place as you could at Robyn’s.” This suggests he preferred resting at his other home.

Janelle asserted that her children were frequently reprimanded for venturing into Robyn’s refrigerator, suggesting a sense of distance they felt with her. Meanwhile, Christine’s kids found it awkward because they recognized that Robyn was their father’s partner and she wasn’t part of their household.

And Robyn said her crew definitely felt the divide.

In the September 29th episode, she mentioned that Meri welcomed both me and my children warmly, but the rest of the family found it difficult to accept us. What they truly desired was to become a part of this family.

Instead, Gabriel might contend that he and his kin made significant efforts to integrate them fully into their group.

In the October 13th episode, he expressed his belief that Robyn seems to have a tendency to view herself as a victim, though he doesn’t hold it entirely against her. He further explained that everyone has their unique methods for coping and surviving, which Robyn appears to employ in this case.

Yet, he went on to say, “If it’s truly in her mind that we mistreated her or her children while she was receiving favoritism from Dad and we were nurturing our bond with her kids, if she genuinely thinks this, then there’s no possibility of me maintaining a relationship with Robyn.

During a recent episode, Kody revealed that the frequent moving between four homes, which was their family situation, had an impact on him and his 18 children. He shared a particular instance when Ariella, their youngest born in January 2016, held onto his leg as he was about to depart, showing her attachment due to their living circumstances.

In his own words, Kody stated, “I had to tell her, ‘I have another wife and more children who need me, another family that depends on me,’ which was a difficult reality for her. She clung to me, crying, ‘Don’t abandon me, Daddy, don’t leave me.’ It was tough for me to deal with.

Unfortunately, that’s just a reality of plural marriage, insisted Janelle.

Initially, she shared, her children had understood that their father wouldn’t be a constant presence due to his frequent absences. It seemed to her that Kody and Robyn mishandled the situation with their children. He could only be away for three or four days at a time because Ari would become deeply upset. In my opinion, that was poor parenting. Throughout history, the other siblings had managed similar situations and they’ve grown into well-adjusted adults.

Among the few young individuals with a connection to both Robyn, Kody, and also Christine and Janelle, and mother of three, Mykelti, stepped into the role of mediator during Kody’s separations.

From the instant Robyn joined the Brown clan, Mykelti warmly welcomed her, going so far as to include her in the delivery room during the birth of her twins Archer and Ace in November 2022.

During the September 29th broadcast, Mykelti shared, “When Robyn became part of our family, I was still trying to understand myself. She made me feel unique and understood. She was there for me in my moments of need, providing someone to listen, to care for, and to love.

Christine was overjoyed beyond words when she saw Robyn joining their family and forming a strong bond with Mykelti. On the October 6 episode, she expressed her feelings by saying, “I had always dreamt of having a large family where my kids would get along well with each other’s mothers. Seeing this relationship between Robyn and Mykelti is exactly what I had hoped for.

Kody believes it’s not just his wives who are choosing to exclude him from their lives; he thinks they’re deliberately doing so as a form of retribution for a crime he didn’t commit, as he expressed during the October 6 episodes. In essence, he sees himself as innocent of the offense that led to his estrangement from some of his older children, primarily because he never deeply fell in love with their mothers.

What’s more, he continued, he think his former spouses are a bit to blame.

He mentioned that the strain in his relationships with his children is predominantly a mental issue stemming from negative comments. Essentially, he feels a wave of disillusionment due to the family splitting up, which has led him to believe that he’s being unfairly blamed for the situation.

However, while he accepts some responsibility for the situation, he strongly objects to the insults. In particular, he admitted that he had difficulty bonding with Hunter, Maddie, and Gabriel. Kody disclosed that one of his children replied to a text saying, “You are worthless. I would never talk to you again anyway.

In another occurrence, he expressed to the cameras, “One of my children recently said, ‘You’re a jerk. I won’t speak to you anymore. You deceived me and conditioned me.’

I can’t keep reaching out indefinitely; it’s time for them to step up,” I find myself saying, emphasizing my belief that they should take a more active role in resolving the issues at hand. “I’m ready to put in the work, but someone else needs to be willing to meet me halfway and make an effort as well.

For Robyn, watching Kody’s estrangement from his adult children hit far too close to home.

During the Oct. 6 episode, she shared that her parents divorced when she was young. At that time, her father lived with another woman in a different city, while her mother lived alone. She recalled asking him why he wasn’t around during her childhood, to which he offered weak explanations that didn’t satisfy her. It was a difficult experience for her.

Instead of giving up due to Kody’s hurt feelings, she was determined to continue making an effort. During their heated argument, captured on camera towards the end of 2022, she expressed her struggle not to lose a bit of respect for him, saying something like “I find it hard not to feel this way.

Even though Kody admitted that he could improve his relationship with his children, he stressed the importance of healing his own heart first.

He confided that some of his children seem to be conspiring against him, and he admitted, “I’m so enraged by the situation that I fear discussing things with my kids might cause them to accuse me further, which could set me off. At this moment, I’m too emotionally charged and may only exacerbate matters instead of resolving them.

Despite many family members attending when Janelle and Kody’s eldest son, Logan, married Michelle Petty in October 2022, it seemed there was a lack of affection or warmth among them.

In the October 6th episode, Kody expressed his displeasure to Robyn, stating that he had noticed Madison taking her children and moving them away from him. He added that his daughter hadn’t informed him about her third pregnancy, which resulted in the birth of their daughter Josephine in February 2023. Essentially, he was saying she didn’t tell him she was expecting a baby.

Frankly, Maddie doesn’t tell her dad much of anything with the two rarely speaking.

Janelle clarified that her daughter Maddie avoids Kody because they’ve had no relationship. Maddie values her kids deeply, and Kody hasn’t been around since Evie was born, who is now three-and-a-half years old. So, Maddie didn’t want him to suddenly appear at the wedding and be introduced as ‘your grandpa’, leaving them surprised and wondering ‘Who is this man?’, as they don’t know him well.

Kody’s perspective is that it’s not reasonable to expect grandparents to constantly be involved in their grandchildren’s lives, given the circumstances such as moving family across different coasts. In his case, he has commitments in Flagstaff that make it challenging for him to maintain a constant presence.

It’s evident that there is a significant disagreement between Kody and his grown-up kids about their current strained relationship, with one key issue being his insistence on receiving an apology or acknowledgment of wrongdoing.

Following the end of the COVID-19 concerns, our family life didn’t return to normal as expected because Kody felt that his sons owed him and Robyn an apology, particularly Robyn. Janelle explained in the Oct. 13 episode that it escalated into something more complex, so they just needed to discuss things with her directly.

Janelle explained that Kody felt his children hadn’t been faithful to him, adding, “He feels that the most cherished individual in our family, who has poured her heart and soul, has been disregarded or something like that.” She concluded, “Well, Kody, I don’t know. Whatever you say.

Gabriel expressed a similar sentiment when he narrated his discussion with his father. “He repeatedly implied that I needed to apologize,” he told Janelle. “At one point, I simply said, ‘Unless you’re genuinely willing to rebuild our relationship and make amends, we should stop talking.’ A few days later, he texted me back. He admitted, ‘I’ve been considering what you’ve been saying. I forgive you. Please forgive me.’

Among the six children Kody has with Janelle, only Savanah is the one he regularly interacts with. Although it’s not often, he contacts her every few months and they spend time together. The other children do not seem to maintain a significant relationship with him.

Regarding Savannah, who will graduate from high school in 2023, it’s clear that her four elder brothers have stepped into a parental role for her. In fact, Savannah has expressed to Janelle that she might ask her siblings to escort her during her future wedding ceremony.

Janelle shared that she had discussed it with Savanah, and Savanah expressed, ‘You know, I’ve figured out that this is his nature.’ ‘He’ll be the kind of father who joins us for fun times but isn’t around all the time. I can accept him as he is. It’s fine.’

Janelle, however, is less forgiving.

She expressed her frustration towards Kody, saying, ‘I can’t help but feel this way.’ She has noticed a pattern in her professional experiences: ‘Many women I’ve collaborated with in the past have gone through divorce, only for the children to be left without contact from the father.’

At the start of their estrangement, “Gabriel found it particularly tough as Kody used to bring Gabriel along on business trips,” explained Janelle, adding that Kody had been a highly involved father until more recent times.

In the October 13th episode, I found myself at a loss as to what might have caused my father’s displeasure, but I declared, “If Dad persists in not changing and refuses to acknowledge his mistakes, then I guess I won’t cross paths with him ever again. And I’m content with that decision.

In simpler terms, Janelle expressed that he’s content with his father not being part of his life. Furthermore, she wishes the same peace for all her children and believes they are gradually finding it.

For his part, Kody also seems resigned to the situation.

He expressed his apologies for how Gabriel feels, sharing in a private moment, “I’ve attempted to reach out to him numerous times, but he declined each time. However, I want to make it clear that this wasn’t due to any lack of effort on my end.

In late 2022, Meri was the one who formally ended her relationship with Kody, following the teachings of their faith, which refers to this action as a “release.” This was granted due to claims of abandonment.

She pointed out during the October 13 broadcast that he dislikes that particular word, as he believes he didn’t leave her, and instead feels that she was the one who was left behind.

Actually, she believes he paid little attention to her until she chose to depart, allowing him to claim, “I have no involvement.

And Kody didn’t totally deny that he had a bit of a strategy.

He admitted he had already moved on a while back, but in all fairness, he was apprehensive about hurting her feelings by ending things. The reason being, Meri had never been faithful to him throughout their relationship. His concern was mainly about his reputation since divorce often damages one’s standing.

Instead, alleged Meri, it was hers that was being tarnished.

She expressed that it’s truly disheartening how Kody is discussing our marriage in such a manner. It seems as though his perspective on our relationship has shifted, yet the claims he makes about me to others, which they appear to accept, are false.

Before Christina parted ways with Kody, it became apparent that they were not a compatible couple, according to a suggested exercise from their marriage and family therapist based in Las Vegas.

In her search for an ideal partner, Christine jotted down characteristics she desired in a husband, such as someone who communicates well, is actively involved in her life and that of their children, and finds her attractive. However, Kody didn’t fit any of these traits, as she shared on the October 20th episode: “He wasn’t any of the qualities I listed,” she admitted. “I told him about the list, and he said, ‘I’m not those things for you.’ I replied, ‘No, you’re not.’
