Early life and childhood

Janelle was born in May 1969 as Janelle S Shriever and grew up in a non-polygamist family environment.

This made Winn both a stepfather and father-in-law to Janelle. Her mother passed away on December 7, 2020.

Janelle is not legally married to Kody, but the duo is in a 'spiritual union' since 1993. They met through mutual friends in 1989, and soon Janelle moved into Kody's ranch in Wyoming. He was married to his first wife Meri Brown at that time. The couple started dating in 1992 and got married the following year. Despite the unusual polygamist nature of the Brown family, Janelle is still very much in love with Kody and often shares photographs of them together.
