Sister Wives S20 E18 (Tell-All Pt 3) Recap: Janelle Felt the “Sparkle” for Kody?! 🤢 | Remote Reality

Published on: 26th January, 2026

Janelle felt “the sparkle” for Kody… and we felt the gag. 🤢 In this Sister Wives Season 20, Episode 18 One-on-One / Tell-All Part 3 recap, Lauren and Dee break down the whiplash: Janelle’s nostalgia, Kody’s image-rehab apology tour, Robyn’s contradictions, and Meri refusing to be blamed for having friends who tell the truth.

We cover:

  1. Janelle’s “sparkle” story and why it hits different coming from her
  2. Kody’s scripted apologies (and why they don’t land)
  3. Robyn’s word salad + “not to be rude” moments
  4. Meri vs. Kody: friends, boundaries, and backbone
  5. “Unsafe” in early plural marriage—emotional talk or something darker?
  6. David’s outside perspective on polygamy and why Kody gets defensive
  7. The “endure and suffer” mindset and why it fuels misery
