Janelle married Meri Brown’s brother, and it gets weirder.
Before Kody Brown, before Sister Wives, Janelle married another man.
The monogamous marriage was to Adam Barber. Adam happens to be Meri’s brother. And yes, Janelle then married Meri’s husband, Kody.
Those men are firmly in the past, now. But as Janelle opens up about the “short-lived” first marriage, Sister Wives fans are scratching their hands.

Wait, Janelle married Meri Brown’s brother?
In 1988, Janelle Brown married Adam Barber, Meri Brown’s brother, at the LDS temple in Salt Lake City.
During a recent guest spot on the Reality Life podcast, Janelle opened up to host Kate Casey about that ill-fated union.
“It was very, very short-lived,” Janelle Brown began. She’s right. The two broke up in 1990.
