Kody Brown was the first to introduce the concept of polygamy on TLC. His show Sister Wives continues to be popular, as he shows his unique lifestyle with wives Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn on national TV. But everything is not as it seems. As the seasons progressed, fans realized that the family was going through a lot of hardships due to their dynamics.
At first, it was Christine who decided to part ways with Kody and the family, followed by Janelle and Meri. The Browns are Mormons, and their church allows its members to adopt polygamy. Apart from Kody Brown, his father, William Winn Brown, also had a similar lifestyle. Many have been arguing these days that the latter was a better polygamist than his son. Here’s why.
Sister Wives: Fans Appreciate Kody’s Father For Doing Polygamy The Right Way While Shunning His Son!
Kody Brown made his debut on TLC with his four wives more than a decade ago through Sister Wives. At first, fans were fascinated to see how things would shape up in their lives. But in the last few seasons, it all came crumbling down. That’s because Christine, Janelle, and Meri left Kody after dealing with his bias toward Robyn for years.
In a new Reddit thread on one of the Sister Wives subreddits, fans noticed something interesting. They realized that Kody’s father, Willam Brown, was also a practicing polygamist before his passing in 2013. His old obituary had some interesting details. Kody’s father and his two wives, Genielle and Sheryl, had appeared in the show earlier. But as per the obituary, he had another wife, Bobbie, who rarely made an appearance on the show.
Longtime viewers also must know Kody’s father’s wife, Sheryl, is actually Janelle’s mother. But they are not biologically related. They are step-siblings, and this is a known fact among many Sister Wives viewers. Fans reached the conclusion that Kody’s father did polygamy better than he could, as he led a peaceful life and left this world without any complaints.
Sister Wives: Kody & Robyn To Showcase Their Monogamous Life On The Show?
Kody and Christine were over a few seasons ago. Then, in the previous season, Janelle and Meri followed the same path. Hence, Robyn is the last woman standing in the polygamist’s life. At first, Sister Wives fans thought they might want to recruit more wives for the show to go on but that won’t be happening.
After losing three wives, Kody did come to his senses. He was full of regrets, dealing with poor mental health, and even going for grief counseling. He said that he wants to just be with Robyn and focus on bettering the only existing martial relationship he has going on. So, it would be interesting for viewers to see how they navigate this new change.
Fans already saw Christine tie the knot in the special episodes of the show. Her martial life with David Woolley will also become part of the coming season. As far as Janelle and Meri are concerned, they are single pringles and will explore that in the upcoming episodes. Keep an eye on TV Season & Spoilers for more Sister Wives news.
