Kody Brown from Sister Wives has threatened to "dissolve partnership" with his wife Robyn. Kody confessed to the cameras that he may just buy a house by himself.
The seldom-seen world of a polygamist family is documented in TLC’s hit show Sister Wives. The show follows around alpha husband Kody Brown and his four wives with their combined 18 children. The family was forced out of Utah due to strict laws and now are trying to live as a family in a society that looks down on their lifestyle. After deciding to move out of Las Vegas, they have just moved to Flagstaff, Arizona, where they will be starting new. However, there are plenty of hurdles as the wives will be living in four different houses in the same town instead of on the same street, which will only stretch Kody's time even thinner.
The couple has had a rough season so far with Kody trying to convince all four wives that they should live in one house; with some going for it while Christine is adamantly against the idea. In the March 1st episode Robyn opened up to the cameras sharing that the two have been struggling within their marriage. Robyn was always thought of at the favorite wife and was the youngest and newest out of the four. Meri gave up the title of being the only legally married wife so Kody could marry Robyn and adopt her children. Fans were surprised to hear that there was trouble in paradise.
Season 14 has shown the family uprooting their lives once more and moving to Flagstaff. None of their homes have sold and the family is currently renting houses in Arizona. Robyn and Kody’s issues stem from a promise that the husband made before leaving Las Vegas but has not followed through on his word. During the scenes for next week’s episode, Kody himself implied he was considering ending their marriage after the couple couldn’t agree on purchasing a home. The family has been drifting apart thanks to marriages, college, and drastic moves and it seems as if the wives are fed up with Kody’s rash decisions. Currently, the wives are far away from one another, about a 25-minute drive each way. The Sister Wives are forced to meet up in the middle just to grab a quick lunch together.
It is obvious to viewers of the TLC show that wives feel lied to as they feel they had a really good situation back in Las Vegas. On the show, it often looks as if Kody makes all the decisions that are best for him, not always thinking about the bigger picture. Many of the family children feel confused after being uprooted and are not sure how to proceed. While Kody is known for unpredictable decisions, fans are hoping he gets a grip and realizes he has good women who support him.
Sister Wives airs Sundays at 10pm EST on TLC.
