TLC Star Leaves Husband to Begin Polyamorous Relationship with His Sister
A star from TLC has made headlines after announcing the end of her brief marriage to pursue a polyamorous relationship with her ex-husband’s sister. Janelle Brown, 56, revealed her unique circumstances involving Meri Brown, 54, during the latest episode of the reality series Sister Wives.
TLC Star’s Relationship Journey
Janelle was previously married to Meri’s brother, Kody Brown. Their marriage lasted less than a year before they divorced. On the show, Meri recounted how Janelle had been present at her wedding to Kody. Following Janelle’s brief marriage, she became Meri’s sister wife when they both entered a relationship with Kody.
Shifting Dynamics
During the episode, Meri admitted that the idea of Janelle joining her and Kody in a polyamorous marriage was challenging to digest. She expressed that the overlapping family connections made it particularly difficult. “It was really hard for me,” she stated, acknowledging the complexity of their relationship.
In contrast, Janelle felt differently about the situation. She described her short marriage as “such a small period of time” that it hardly affected her current dynamics with Meri. “For me, it wasn’t really a thing,” Janelle remarked, showing less concern for the past relationship.
Ongoing Tensions
The dynamic within the family has become increasingly strained. Both Janelle and Meri, along with another ex-wife, Christine Brown, 53, have sought spiritual divorces from Kody, 56. Currently, Kody’s only remaining relationship is with his wife Robyn Brown, 47.
Fans React
The dramatic revelation has sparked varied reactions from fans, especially regarding the complexities of their relationships. Many expressed confusion and concern over how Janelle transitioned from being Meri’s sister-in-law to sharing Kody as a husband.
- One viewer commented on the challenges of the situation: “It’s not normal.”
- Another emphasized, “Janelle is wrong marrying her ex-sister-in-law’s husband.”
- A fan shared, “Meri’s feelings are valid; it mattered to her.”
As these personal stories unfold, they have captured the attention of a dedicated audience, leading to discussions about family ties, love, and the intricate nature of polyamorous relationships.
