SISTER Wives star Janelle Brown has secret plans to live away from her husband Kody amid rumors she is leaving him.
The split speculation comes after third wife Christine, 49, divorced Kody, 53, and left sister wives Meri, 51, Janelle, 52, and Robyn, 43, for Utah.
The Sun can exclusively reveal second wife Janelle has no plans to return to living under one roof with her husband.
Janelle borrowed money from US Bank National on December 29, 2021 for a 2021 Milestone RV, according to public records.
The expiration date for the loan is December 29, 2026.
INSIDE THE RV
Janelle lived in the RV on the family’s vacant land Coyote Pass over the summer.
The RV goes for around $82,000 and features a luxury kitchenette, complete with a miniature oven, full-sized refrigerator, and microwave.
The living space holds a couch and dining table with a half booth, and a flat-screen TV that hangs parallel to the entryway.
Through a small staircase and hallway the trailer extends into the master bedroom, a space with a full-sized bed, storage, and mirrored closet.
On the opposite end of the vehicle, the area opens up to a second living space, complete with bunk beds, a full dining table, and a loft for more sleeping arrangements.

The half bathroom at the end holds storage, a full-sized shower, and sink, while the bathroom in the middle of the mobile home holds the toilet.
The trailer is 429-square feet and also features two air conditioners, a furnace, an awning and outdoor cooktop for camping.
Janelle wrote on Instagram of her new venture in June: “So I have something fun to share. I acted boldly and seized an adventure. The rental where I was living was sold and I chose an alternative path to trying to find another rental. Not only is the housing market in Flagstaff as crazy as where you are I’m sure, rentals are even harder to come by. Presenting my new summer adventure – the RV life but camped on our property.
“Lots to do out here on the land so I figured why not be onsite. Honestly I’m alternating between extreme excitement as I’ve always wanted to try this and anxiety at all the unknown variables. So stay tuned, this is about to get real!”
Janelle lived in the trailer on the property until November, as she wrote on Instagram at the time: “So long trailer ! See you next spring. Trailer is headed down to storage for the winter. We decided to find short term housing in town instead of riding out the winter. Next year I should be able to plug into infrastructure (i.e. electric, sewer, water). I loved, loved loved living out on the land and look forward to next spring.”
Janelle had taken out a permit to be able to live in the RV on the family’s property.
BUILDING ON LAND?
In 2018, the family purchased four parcels of land in Flagstaff, Arizona to build homes on for $820,000 called Coyote Pass.
On the most recent season of Sister Wives, the family planned to split the land into five parcels for Kody to have his own home.
The Sun can confirm the family has not begun the building process on the property.
RELATIONSHIP DRAMA
Kody and Janelle have struggled with marital issues.
On the Sister Wives Tell All special, the host asked Janelle: “Do you still believe in polygamy?”
She responded: “Yes I do. I’m here. I mean there was a point during Covid where I was like ‘okay do I still wanna do this?’
“And there was a period of time where Kody was away for about six weeks, and I thought ‘Wow life is really easy.’
“And I really kind of had to do some soul searching and realize that I want to be here still. I’m here.”
She also admitted that she strongly considered leaving her husband when Christine decided to split from him.
Fans have even speculated Janelle left Kody, as she remains close to Christine and often visits her.
FAMILY FALL OUT
Kody and Robyn, who has been dubbed his favorite wife and who he primarily lives with, own a $890,000 home.
Meri and Janelle are currently renting, while Christine sold her house and moved to Utah.
The pandemic caused a strain on the Brown family, as the father of 18 primary lived with Robyn and their five children because they followed his strict Covid rules, as he saw his other wives and children less frequently.
In November, Christine finally revealed she was leaving her husband after over 25 years together.
While Meri remains with the family in Arizona, Kody has made it clear the two are “just friends.”
She moved to Utah with their youngest of six children, Truley, 11, as they lived in a $1.1million Utah duplex.
Christine also scored her own spinoff show, Cooking With Christine.
