Janelle Brown Leaves Polygamous Marriage, Starts New Life in North Carolina

In September 2025, Janelle Brown, a former cast member of the TLC show "Sister Wives," opened up about her move to North Carolina following her split from ex-husband Kody Brown. Janelle, 56, expressed her love for the state, saying she never thought about living there but now enjoys the four seasons and is trying to get involved in the community.

Janelle also reflected on ending her marriage to Kody, 56, in 2022 after more than 20 years. She admitted that when she married Kody, she felt a "calling" towards plural marriage, but that pull is no longer there. Janelle is not the only wife to have ended her spiritual relationship with Kody, as Meri, 54, and Christine, 53, have also done so.

The article also mentions the ongoing dispute over the family's Coyote Pass property in Flagstaff, Arizona. Janelle referred to the property as "a pain in my ass" and said she just wants it resolved, as she, Meri, and Christine are no longer interested in sharing the property following their breakups with Kody.
