Janelle Brown had trouble fitting into Kody and Meri’s happy home

Any new wife would definitely have a difficult time adjusting to a polygamist household. But one Reddit thread pointed out that Janelle Brown never felt like anything more than a house guest.

“I don’t know much about polygamy but I know this just wouldn’t be right,” wrote the original poster. They posted an excerpt from Janelle’s book that highlights her feelings:

“I didn’t know when I married Kody what a struggle that first year would be,” Janelle writes in her book. “I moved into the house with him and Meri and lived in their guest room. I felt like a long-term visitor, an eternal houseguest instead of a wife.”

“Meri and Kody were still very much in love and they had no idea how to incorporate me into their lives,” she continued. “I had no idea where I fit into the marriage. When we watched movies they would sit on the couch and hold hands under a blanket and I’d sit in my own chair.”

Kody Brown notoriously plays favorites with his wives, but this passage really broke fans’ hearts. Janelle may like her independence, but this was all too much.

“I’m a more independent than average woman and I would last less than a minute in this situation,” wrote one user.
