Janelle Brown Reflects on Brief First Marriage Before Joining Sister Wives

Janelle Brown discusses her short-lived marriage to Meri's brother and her journey into plural marriage with Kody Brown.

Janelle Brown described her first marriage to Adam Barber, Meri Brown's brother, as 'very, very short-lived,' lasting only two years before ending in 1990.
Despite the end of her first marriage, Janelle maintained a friendship with Meri and eventually became intrigued by the polygamist faith.
Janelle married Kody Brown in 1993, becoming his second wife, after being introduced by Meri and exploring the faith further.
Meri Brown expressed initial discomfort with Janelle's marriage to Kody but noted that they worked through the emotions as a family.
The Brown family's plural marriage has since unraveled, with Janelle, Christine, and Meri all separating from Kody, leaving Robyn as his only remaining wife.
