I don’t know,” she added, implying that their relationship dynamic had changed.

Kody jumped back into the conversation by protesting that they needed to figure it out.

Janelle, on the other hand, felt like they weren’t as compatible as they used to be.

“I still have so much affection for Kody.

“It just seems like the family is going in different directions.

And it’s actually very sad,” he sorrowfully concluded.
