Sister Wives star Kody Brown seemed to admit that Robyn Brown was not his original choice for wife number four as TLC rolled out a new episode this week. But it seems his recollection of this other courtship sounds much different from what they shared with fans years ago.
Then there’s Christine Brown, who doesn’t sugarcoat her words. So, she chimes in and calls her ex-husband’s version of that failed courtship, “just a lie.”
Sister Wives: Kody Brown Fancies Himself a Wanted Man?
Kody Brown seems to one-up Robyn Brown in the desirable department. She made it clear during this season that back when she met Kody, she was popular. He was just one man in line wanting her hand in marriage.
Now he paints a picture of the potential wife that got away from his Sister Wives family. But Kody Brown’s colorful tale doesn’t match the story that the family told in a book they penned together several years back.
In that best-selling book, they told the story of a teenage woman. She was only weeks away from the altar with Kody. This was back when Meri Brown was his only wife. But this bride-to-be dumped him not long before the wedding date.
Christine Brown Finally Gets Her Wish
Christine Brown already had her sights set on Kody before he met the woman who almost married him. She penned in the Sister Wives book how she introduced this woman to Meri and Kody. But never once did she consider this teen as any competition. She never thought of her as a bride in this plural marriage.
So, she was crushed when she learned of the pending marriage to this unnamed 18-year-old woman. Then after a little time went by, she learned this wedding was not taking place. So, she set her sights on Kody once again. She wanted him as her potential polygamous husband.
But as fate would have it, Janelle Brown became wife number two, putting Christine back into the doldrums. That changed and when Kody Brown decided to take on another wife, Christine finally approached him.
History tells the rest of this story of Kody, Meri, Janelle, and Christine becoming the original Sister Wives family. But now with Kody’s new info this season, it doesn’t sound like that tale ends there. Today, the way the Sister Wives patriarch tells this tale, fans believe he’s throwing shade on Robyn only to make himself look good.
Sister Wives: Robyn Brown Suddenly Becomes Part of the Story?
Kody seems to twist the story a bit. But when doing so, he seems to render Robyn as someone not as special as he made her out to be this season. He explains it this way, “There was a woman that I was courting for a very long time before I married Janelle. [She] and Meri were friends. After I married Christine, she still wanted to be family. Christine shut it down the first time because Christine and I were friends, she says, ‘I’d never marry you if you married her.’”
Then Kody jumps ahead with, “And then Christine had no interest in having her in the family after Christine had come into the family.” The original story suggested Kody and Meri knew this girl for a long time but waited until she turned 18 before they got engaged. After she dumped him, that was the end of the story. Or at least the way the Sister Wives book first unfolded this part of their lives.
Sister Wives fans suggest that this new version seems to suggest Robyn was not his first choice for wife number four. If you follow what the patriarch is saying, then this woman would have been wife number four, and not Robyn, if Christine hadn’t allegedly nixed that marriage, which she denies.
Robyn Sits With Egg on Her Face?
To suggest that Robyn Brown appears as if Sister Wives drama may be getting to her, well, this might be an understatement. Check out her facial expression below at the opening of a recent episode. Robyn’s now monogamous husband seems fine with it all, but the look on her face seems to say she’s not feeling the same way.
For the longest time, Kody Brown seemed to favor Robyn over the other Sister Wives ladies. Now this season he offers up the reason for that. The only wife he ever loved happens to be Robyn Brown. He loves her because of her loyalty. This was his first line of defense when explaining why she seemed to be his favorite wife.
Sister Wives: Robyn Becomes Kody’s Soulmate
Kody dubbed Robyn Brown as his soulmate. But now we find out she wasn’t his first choice for wife number four. If what he is saying is true, then Robyn would never be in the family if Christine allowed him to marry the woman he courted for a long time. But again, his third wife denies this and says that he’s lying. Plus, the book they wrote seems to tell it a bit differently as well.
So, what Sister Wives fans see today is Robyn being built up by Kody Brown all this season on Sister Wives. But now, it seems as if he tosses her aside to prove a point. His tale of his courting days seems to indicate that Robyn Brown was not his first pick. Or did this story twist a bit after Robyn’s story of many suitors sparked jealousy? Robyn described a long line forming of potential husbands before she picked the Sister Wives patriarch as her mate for life.
Fans suggest the guy sporting ringlets demands loyalty from his wives. But so far, fans suggest that he hasn’t shown much of this himself on the TLC show. This includes his loyalty to Robyn Brown as well.
