Sister Wives star Janelle Brown is embarking on a significant life transformation as she completed her move from Arizona. Reflecting on the changes since her initial appearance on television in 2010, Janelle, now 55, recalls a very different time when she was one of Kody Brown’s four wives, collectively raising 18 children. However, the family structure has dramatically altered, with Janelle, Christine, and Meri Brown each departing from their plural marriage over recent years, leaving Kody in a primarily monogamous relationship with his youngest wife, 45-year-old Robyn Brown.
Janelle had always appreciated the autonomy her polygamous lifestyle allowed her, yet after nearly three decades of marriage, she and Kody ultimately decided to part ways. Having recently moved her final belongings out of Arizona, Janelle is now setting her sights on a new chapter filled with optimism and personal growth.

“It’s About Making Space For Greater Peace And Clarity”
At the start of the new year, Janelle took to Instagram to share her resolution focused on **detoxification**. She expressed her commitment to rid her life of negative energy that hindered her progress. Her detox plan includes a combination of fitness, dietary changes, and spiritual growth, explaining, “It’s about making space for greater peace and clarity by detoxing my life EMOTIONALLY, PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY, and SPIRITUALLY.”The past year has been challenging for Janelle, as she navigates the loss of her son, 25-year-old Garrison Brown.

Her Stunning Appearance at a Gala
Recently, Janelle showcased her vibrant new look at a charity gala, dazzling attendees in an elegant velvet gown. Sharing her experience on social media, she stated, “My friend @aprilwraines and her husband had an extra ticket for a fundraiser this weekend in Raleigh. It was fun to dress up and spend the evening out for a good cause.”After a period of focusing on her farm life, this event marked a refreshing change of pace for the newly single mother who has taken significant steps towards embracing her desired lifestyle, including purchasing a flower farm in North Carolina.
Despite her impressive transformation, Janelle remains uninterested in re-entering the dating scene. During her guest appearance on the Sibling Revelry Podcast, she candidly stated her resolve to never marry again, declaring, “I am done,”and expressing contentment with her single life. Nonetheless, she remains open to possibilities in the future.
Final Departure from Arizona
“I Have Had One Last Storage Unit In Flagstaff”
Janelle had previously moved out of Arizona, but she maintained a storage unit that symbolically tethered her to the state. Recently sharing moments from this significant transition on Instagram, she captured the experience of emptying her final storage space. With this last step now complete, Janelle feels unburdened, poised to embrace an exciting new beginning.
Quality Time with Her Sons
“Had Dinner With My Boys”
During her recent travels to the southwest, Janelle enjoyed a family dinner with her sons, Logan and Hunter. The recent loss of Garrison has prompted her to prioritize time with her children, which she lovingly shared on Instagram, stating, “Had dinner with my boys.”Although her son Gabriel is studying in Chicago, Janelle maintains close relationships with all her children, many of whom have distanced themselves from Kody. Currently, Janelle resides in North Carolina, close to her daughter, Madison Brush.
The Bond Between Janelle and Christine
A Lasting Relationship Beyond Kody
While Janelle and Christine were not particularly close during their marriages to Kody, they have developed a strong bond post-separation. Their personalities differ; Janelle is pragmatic, while Christine exudes emotional warmth. Despite their differences, the two navigate a profound friendship strengthened by shared experiences as former sister wives.
This newfound connection has blossomed as they lean on each other through significant life changes, including their first holidays spent together with their children.
