‘Sister Wives’ Why Fans Say Janelle Brown’s Disgust For Kody Fake
Sister Wives has shown that the relationship between Kody and Janelle Brown has been struggling for quite some time. In Season 19, Janelle has been sick of Kody’s shenanigans. But fans say that Janelle’s disgust for Kody is completely fake.
Janelle Brown Is Over Kody
Although Sister Wives stars Meri, Janelle, and Christine Brown held back their comments about Kody Brown for many years, in Season 19, they have been more free. There are lots of jabs throughout the season pointed at Kody, especially with money management. In the latest episode, Janelle Brown was packed and leaving Flagstaff, AZ, with a gleam of hope in her eyes.
Christine Brown Woolley mentions she still wakes up with nightmares about Kody. However, Janelle says she doesn’t think about him much at all. Then, Christine and Janelle discussed the birthday date that Kody took Janelle on, even when things were a little rocky. But Janelle admitted she didn’t have anything better to do, so she accepted his offer. In some ways, she is coldly moving on without including Kody in her decisions. She left her necklace designed by Kody behind and stepped “into her new life.”
Why Fans Say Janelle Brown’s Disgust For Kody Fake
On Reddit, Sister Wives fans discuss that while Janelle Brown puts on a strong face, they don’t think her disgust for Kody Brown is real. She considered him a “disruption” and has begun to call him out for his actions. But some people think it is all an act. After seeing the birthday flashback, one user points out that Janelle was happy to run back to her husband in a moment of weakness. One Redditor sees that the date was in the middle of a tense season of their lives where Kody was disrespecting not only Janelle but her kids as well. Instead of confronting Kody at that time for neglect, the fan thinks Janelle was eating out of the palm of Kody’s hand.
The Redditor included the flashback from the latest episode of Janelle Brown going on a rare date with Kody while the family was unraveling in Season 18.
- The original poster later adds, “Yeah I’m not buying that. At all. I regret not making the clip longer because, in the following 20 second, ds Janelle is literally flipping her hair and is so obviously smitten.”
Other Users Added Their Thoughts
Within the discussion, several Sister Wives fans mentioned that Kody Brown’s “big gesture” of getting reservations at Mariposa wasn’t as grand as it sounds. Some people found that there were plenty of spots available for the “nicest restaurant in all of Arizona.”
- Another viewer thinks there was more, adding, “‘I was just using him’ girl’ – that’s how I interact with my man rn when he brings me a sweet treat, get out of here. She was full on bashful almost .”
- The original poster replies, “Bffr! Janelle is SPARKLING over the surprise. No one is that good an actor. I would downplay this too if I were her.”
Lying To Herself
Furthermore, some viewers explain Janelle Brown’s tendency to hide her feelings as being a shield for her heart after the relationship bottomed out. Furthermore, some believe she is rewriting history to ease the memory for herself.
- However, some people think that Janelle may be lying to herself too. Someone points out, “Calling him honey.. twirling her hair.. Turning cameras off.. it was really hard to watch.”
- “I think in fairness to the OG wives, Kotex always kept them divided. He lied to all these women, promising them more affection, and better lives, if they moved, and they fell for it. In pitting them against each other, the wives never had a chance to advocate for themselves as a unit.”
- But some people think Janelle Brown is masking her true feelings, “She is still in love with him.”
What do you think? Is Janelle Brown’s reflection of the birthday date being meaningless true?
