Janelle Brown became Kody Brown’s second wife in 1993 and Garrison had appeared on Sister Wives since its inception.
The show follows Kody Brown, his wife Robyn (née Sullivan), ex-wives Meri (née Barber), Janelle (née Schriever), and Christine (née Allred), and their 18 children (one by Meri, six by both Janelle and Christine, five by Robyn, although three were between her and her ex-husband David Preston Jessop).
The family began the series living in Lehi, Utah, before moving to Las Vegas in 2011 and then onwards to Flagstaff, Arizona, in mid-2018.
