The marriages of “Sister Wives” star Kody Brown fell apart quickly, and fans have been quick to place blame on Robyn Brown. However, Meri Brown has recently revealed that Kody was always the issue. Fans have been blaming Robyn for the family’s trouble in their plural marriage due to her behavior on the show. However, Meri has previously tracked Kody’s time and found that she was getting less than one-third of his attention. Kody has also admitted to using his other wives to escape a wife he had issues with, which has caused fans to believe that he often pitted his wives against each other. While Robyn’s entrance into the family may have contributed to the downfall of the marriage, it is not entirely fair to place all the blame on her; rather, fans should consider Kody’s behavior and actions as contributing factors.
Kody Brown was responsible for finding a fair way to divide his time among his wives, as he acknowledged in the first season of the show. However, he failed to do so and began favoring his fourth wife Robyn Brown in recent years, which caused tension between the wives. While it’s easy to put all the blame on Robyn, Kody prioritized her over the original three wives, and this is where things started to go wrong. Even before Robyn joined the family, Kody wasn’t dividing his time fairly among his wives. It’s possible that Christine, Meri, and Janelle would have grown tired of Kody regardless of Robyn’s influence. New episodes of Sister Wives air every Sunday at 10 p.m. on TLC, and they’re also available for streaming on discovery+ and Max at the same time.
