Janelle questioned how Kody handled the family’s money
Janelle, addressing the family’s inability to pay off Coyote Pass, said Kody claimed to have “all these other debts.” And yet she’s seen him snap up other assets like trailers and home furnishings. “I see all the art on their walls,” she said of Robyn and Kody’s home. “I see all these things. And it’s good, I have money and I’ve spent it too.” (For his part, Kody said much of his cash went to buying cars — “basically had a fleet” — and insurance for the kids.)
And while Janelle admitted she wasn’t sure how Kody and Robyn handled their finances, “I always used to be amazed at how nice her yard was. It was completely done. And there was always, like, stuff in her house. And I was like, ‘wow.
Primarily, she said, “He doesn’t prioritize what I need or what I want.” And that question eventually wore her down. “I think after a while I started to see it and my kids became very Angry about it, like my grown children. Like “What the hell, Mom?”
However, Robyn’s take was that she was very careful with her budget after her first marriage fell apart.
“I used to not be very good with money,” she shared during the Sept. 22 episode. “When I was young, I had a hard time, and then during my divorce I really learned how to budget very, very well.” As for her fellow sister women, she said, “You just had to have a different priority of where your money was going than I did, that’s all.”
