Robyn Brown is a controversial star on the polygamist series Sister Wives, and Redditors think that she's a hypocrite. Much like her husband Kody Brown, Robyn receives criticism from Sister Wives fans on a regular basis. In the past, Robyn has been judged by fans for a range of things, from her Pinterest posts to crying too much. She is also critiqued for her controlling behavior. Although Robyn and her three former sister wives agree that Kody is the leader of the Brown family, Robyn manages to take charge of many of the Browns' situations.
Additionally, Robyn was the authority on Kody's romantic life. He was pursuing a fifth wife, but the woman he was courting claimed that Sister Wives' Robyn Brown prevented Kody from getting married again. Fans find Robyn's reign over the Brown family unfair, especially when she contradicts herself from time to time. On Reddit, one fan noted an instance in which Robyn blatantly prioritized her child over another sister wife's.
Sister Wives Fans Think Robyn Mistreats Ysabel Brown
One Sister Wives fan took to Reddit to air out their frustration with Kody's latest wife. In a thread started by user u/soihavetosay, they recalled that Robyn made Kody go to the hospital with her, She made sure that when they got home, everyone was (as per the show), "waiting to greet him and they have a pizza party." The fan then pointed out that this was hypocritical of Robyn because Ysabel didn't get comparable attention during her emergency spinal surgery. Specifically, fans were angry with Kody for not going to the hospital during Ysabel's surgery.
Sister Wives' Robyn Favors Dayton
On the show, Robyn's son Dayton, whom Kody adopted in 2015, got surgery to fix his eyelid. Dayton was involved in an ATV accident that left his eye impaired. Dayton was unable to open his right eye as a result of his initial surgery. Eventually, Dayton was able to get plastic surgery done. Although this was great news for the Brown family, fans found Dayton's surgery to be a demonstration of Robyn's hypocrisy. When it came time for Dayton's surgery, Robyn made sure that the family was exceedingly accommodating of Dayton. Fellow Sister Wives star Christine's daughter Ysabel didn't get the same treatment.
Sister Wives Fans Called Out Robyn
Other Sister Wives fans agreed that Kody unfairly favors Robyn, and think she takes advantage of it. Another Reddit user said that Kody is responsible for not attending Ysabel's surgery, but believes there is more that Robyn could have done. The user explained, "If Robyn was any kind of team player she would have insisted he go and reassured him she and their kids would be fine." While Sister Wives viewers agree that all of Kody's children should get the treatment they need, Robyn frustrated fans when she put her children above her sister wives' kids.
The dislike towards Robyn has only grown recently, and other members of the Brown family have spoken out about their strained relationship with her. Gwen Brown, daughter of Robyn's former sister wife Christine Brown, was outspoken about her feelings of dislike towards Robyn, due to her attitude and how she treats others. Gwen's fiance Beatriz Queiroz later chimed in that she also harbors feelings of resentment towards Robyn and Kody. On top of Brown family members expressing these feelings, Sister Wives have historically referred to Robyn with the mocking nickname, "Sobbin' Robyn," and will likely continue to criticize her online.
