In a recent televised interview, Janelle Brown, a former member of the plural family featured on the reality series Sister Wives, offered a candid and definitive assessment of her current stance toward her ex-husband, Kody Brown, and his remaining wife, Robyn Brown. The 56-year-old made it clear she harbors no ill will but equally has no desire for any form of friendship or close association with the pair.
During the conversation, Brown stated that while she could engage in superficial, polite conversation, she has no intention of forging a deeper bond. “I don’t have any hate or hard feelings or anything. I just don’t really want to know them,” she explained. When pressed for specific reasons for her distance from Robyn, Brown conceded she couldn’t provide concrete examples but reiterated a fundamental personal disconnect. “I really just don’t like them. I don’t want to know them. I don’t want to be friends with them,” she said plainly, summarizing her position as, “I don’t need it. I don’t want it. I’m not looking for it.”
Brown’s spiritual marriage to Kody Brown began in 1993. Their union, along with those of Kody’s other wives, unraveled in recent years, with Janelle formally ending her marriage in December 2022. This followed Christine Brown’s departure in 2021, with Meri Brown also confirming her split from Kody in early 2023, leaving Robyn as the sole remaining wife in the plural marriage structure.
While Kody has publicly expressed regret over the dissolution of his relationship with Janelle, suggesting he believed they could have reconciled, Janelle appears firmly content with her decision and her new chapter. Speaking on a separate occasion, she expressed satisfaction with single life, noting she is not actively seeking to remarry or date. “I’m not really interested in getting married again or even really dating at this stage,” she shared, though she left the door slightly ajar by saying she would “consider” a future relationship if the right opportunity arose naturally.
The remarks underscore a final and settled perspective from Janelle Brown, who has moved on from the family’s complex dynamics and shows no interest in revisiting those personal connections.
