Janelle and Kody Brown Celebrate Thanksgiving Apart Amid Breakup Rumors
Sister Wives stars, Christine and Janelle Brown, celebrated Thanksgiving with their individual families and shared an inside peek at the fall festivities with fans on social media.
Christine, 50, who announced that she had left TLC patriarch, Kody Brown, a year ago, announced only days before the holiday that her daughter, Mykelti, and her husband, Tony Padron, had welcomed twin boys.
“So obsessed with these new grandsons!! What a blessing. And, hey, we should talk about how INCREDIBLE Mykelti’s recovery is going!” the proud grandmother captioned photos of the two newest members of the family, via Instagram. “The nurses were BLOWN AWAY by how well she did! She’s just amazing! #twins #gransons #oma #blessed.”
“I’m so happy my boys are finally here and we’re all doing well,” Mykelti said in a statement to TLC.
Christine also showed off her baking skills, whipping up cinnamon rolls to celebrate the season.
Janelle, 53, seemingly spent the holiday without Kody amid rumors that she had previously walked away from the marriage. This year marks the third consecutive year that Janelle and Kody have been apart for Thanksgiving. Fans watched Janelle make the decision to travel to North Carolina to visit her daughter and grandchildren for the holiday in 2020, amid Kody’s rigid COVID-19 rules.
Janelle posted a photo of her son Hunter, helping out in the kitchen with turkey prep.
“He is rubbing salted seasoned butter all over, under the skin etc. I think it’s going to be really good!” Janelle wrote on her Instagram Story.
“The pay off! Friends and family contributed to dinner,” Janelle captioned an Instagram Story, revealing her family feast.
Meri, 51, chose not to reveal where she spent the holiday but did share about a retreat event she attended earlier in the month.
“Just had the most incredible weekend with a group of some amazing humans! Real Life Retreats mindfulness and motion weekend was a huge success!” she captioned an Instagram post on Monday. “Find your passion, follow your dreams, take a step daily, even if small, toward a goal or a dream and make that thing a reality. Take a few minutes each day to go inward and focus on what’s important to you, and how you can be a better human than you were yesterday.”
She added—“Don’t let yourself get distracted by the voices of others, voices that have no part in your story. Live your life with passion and joy! Remember, you’re worthy of having all you want in your life. You deserve it, and you’re worth it!”
Fans have been watching Christine’s final weeks with the Brown family in the current season of the long-running series. TLC recently aired the awkward family farewell, as Christine and her daughter, Truely, prepared to leave Flagstaff for Utah.
