Many fans of Sister Wives want to see Kody Brown adding another wife into the mix so that Robyn Brown can understand what the other wives felt in the past. After Kody and his third wife, Christine Brown, announced their divorce, fans are not sure what to expect in the next season of the show. In the past, Kody has courted and looked for a wife on Sister Wives, so he may be ready to do it again. Overall, there are a few reasons why fans hope Kody will take a new wife soon.
After sixteen seasons of Sister Wives, the Brown family has grown exponentially. Throughout that time, however, the four women in his life remained the same. Kody first married Meri Brown, followed by Janelle Brown, and then Christine. On Sister Wives season 1, Kody started courting Robyn Brown, and the pair married in the season finale. From then on out, Kody has continued his marriages with all four women, working through issues that range from childcare to jealousy to new challenges during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Fans were shocked after learning the news that Kody and Christine were getting a divorce after over two decades of marriage. Many were wondering whether Christine will still take part in the show given that she has been a main cast member since 2010. Though there is no official word on whether or not she will make an appearance on Sister Wives season 17, it is unlikely that she will be featured as heavily as she was before. Some fans think that Kody will likely try to fill that hole on the show by finding another wife to be his fourth.
Robyn Brown is not known as a fan-favorite. Since her first appearance on the show while dating Kody, fans felt that Kody gave her unfair special treatment. Of note, Robyn has been called conniving and passive-aggressive, especially after shading her sister wives' children when they did not want to move to Arizona. Many fans believe that Robyn is Kody's favorite, therefore being able to manipulate him into making things better for herself and worse for the other wives. As such, some fans want Robyn to get a taste of her own medicine by having Kody court someone else.
Robyn is the only one of Kody's wives who did not have to watch as he brought someone else into their plural family. She did not have to watch him start over with someone new and go on dates with other women. Fans want to see how Robyn reacts to Kody dating again, and whether she would get jealous like the other wives did with her. Kody may decide to start dating again to replace Christine on Sister Wives season 17, and certain fans cannot wait to see what happens next for the Brown family.
