"We don't partner really well but we actually just are able to have a marriage that's, if you will, lower in attachment," he continues. "I don't even know. We're good friends, we get along well. It's more of a, like, just a committed relationship." Addressing whether he's still "in love" with Janelle, Kody says he has "love" for her but couldn't declare anything beyond that.
