Janelle Brown is a self-described “independent” woman – but she recently confessed that Sister women episode she misses a few things about ex Kody Brown.
“I really miss Kody. We are very best friends. We have a lot of conversations,” Janelle, 54, told the cameras during the Sunday, September 24, episode of the TLC series. “I miss him in my bed. I miss him in my house. I miss him.”
Janelle doubled down on her comments, telling Kody, 54, directly, “I miss you sweetie. I just don’t know how to solve this. You and I tend to come back and forget all the hard things. This time I need something different.”
Kody, meanwhile, claimed during a confessional that Janelle is “not in love” with him, but rather has lust over his body. ‘I think she thinks I’m pretty. I have nice cocks and great six-pack abs, but that’s all she’s interested in,” he claimed.

Janelle denied his claims, telling the cameras, “I’m like, whoa buddy, you’re totally missing the boat here. There is a lot more to marriage than just physical attraction, and I feel like we are in great danger here.”
Earlier this season, Kody and Janelle had an argument about the treatment of their sons Garrison25, and Gabriel21. Kody’s ongoing issue with the boys allegedly disrespecting his COVID rules resulted in a falling out between the couple, and they ended up spending the 2022 holidays apart.
Janelle – who also shares Logan29, Madison27, Hunter26, and In the savannah18, with Kody – announced in December 2022 that she and Kody had been ‘separated’ for a while.
“I’m not being treated here the way I deserve to be treated,” Janelle said during Sunday’s episode, referring to Kody’s choice to stay away after their argument in December.

Throughout the episode, which was filmed in the new year, Janelle and Kody once again tried to make amends and move past their issues. Although Janelle admitted that their second conversation “went better than I thought,” she revealed that she wanted to remain “separated” for a while longer.
“Well, it went better than Janelle expected. I actually thought we were going to reconcile here,” Kody said during a confessional. “She says, ‘No, I enjoy my independence too much, this freedom, so I want to stay separated.’ More in my mind, things went well because I’m determined to never trigger again. Or get angry.”
For her part, Janelle told the cameras that her independence was not behind her choice to live apart from Kody. It was his treatment of their children – after ghosting their youngest daughter, Savanah, since early December – that prompted her decision.
“I don’t need much from him,” she said. “But when it comes down to it [the fact that] he suddenly doesn’t want to be a father to my children because they don’t agree with him… That changes the cost-benefit ratio for me in this marriage.’
Sister women airs on TLC Sundays at 10pm ET.
