Is Kody Brown estranged from Janelle Brown's sons?
Kody does not have an amicable relationship with Janelle's sons, Gabriel and Garrison.
Kody told Insider, "Now with those two boys, I'm estranged from them. I can't even have conversations with them anymore."
Kody imposed strict rules while they were living together in a house during the Covid-19 pandemic. Janelle's house was the first that Kody stopped visiting at that time.
The strain in the relationship was obvious in Season 16 and 17. He even forgot Gabriel's birthday in one episode.
Gabriel recalled, "I shouldn't have done this, but I did anyway. I didn't remind him that it was my birthday because I wanted to see if he remembered, and he didn't."
