Polygamy

Polygamy

The practice of having more than one spouse at the same time. The Brown family brought polygamy into mainstream conversation through Sister Wives, presenting their faith-based plural household to a national audience from 2010. Janelle Brown lived that life for nearly thirty years; her 2026 romance with Pete is deliberately, contentedly monogamous — one boyfriend, one farm, two rocking chairs — a contrast fans cite when they call this her freest chapter yet.
