In a dramatic turn of events on Sister Wives, Janelle Brown is no longer staying silent — and she’s calling out Robyn in the boldest way yet. In a powerful confessional, Janelle flat-out accuses Robyn of being a gold digger, claiming she reaped the benefits of the family’s years of hard work without ever being there for the struggles. According to Janelle, Robyn entered the picture only after the rest of the family had already laid the groundwork for stability — and now enjoys the fruits of their labor without having lifted a finger.
During a candid moment, Janelle reflected on the tough times when money was tight — she had to patch up old bras with diaper pins while Cody dragged the family from place to place chasing pipe dreams. Yet Robyn, whom Cody doted on like a “Diesel Jeans model,” was spared all those hardships. This favoritism has long created tension within the family, but Janelle’s recent statements show just how deep the resentment runs.
As Season 19 unfolds, Janelle explores cutting final ties with Cody through a spiritual release — something Mary Brown has already done and Christine never needed due to her departure from the faith. In emotional scenes, Mary even offers to accompany Janelle to pursue this symbolic break, urging her to reclaim her life and beliefs.
Meanwhile, Janelle’s new chapter brings her to North Carolina, where she and her daughter Maddie launched a bold venture: Tada Farms. With 156 acres of land, it’s a huge risk and investment, and although progress has been slow due to permits and planning, Janelle is determined to make it work. Still, fans are worried. Many recall the Browns’ past business failures — from the Coyote Pass debacle to short-lived ventures in real estate and fitness — and fear history may repeat itself.
Despite the skepticism, Janelle appears committed for the long haul. She knows it’ll take years to see results and isn’t expecting overnight success. Her decision to invest in something meaningful — and to finally live life on her own terms — is striking a chord with fans, many of whom applaud her courage. After enduring personal loss, financial instability, and emotional neglect, Janelle is finally taking control of her future.
Her brutally honest comments about Robyn are sure to stir up more family drama, but one thing is clear: Janelle Brown is no longer playing nice — and she’s not afraid to speak her truth. Will this finally force Kody to confront the fractured legacy he’s left behind?
