Kody Throws Robyn UNDER The BUS | Meri takes action against Robyn | Sister Wives Family Dynamics

Sister Wives star Robyn Brown entered the family, and soon the harmony within the Brown clan disintegrated, or at least this is what fans of the TLC show believed.

Granted, fans watched as the shared husband fixated on his new wife from the first day she hit the screen. But that novelty never wore off, and problems continued to grow.

So, some fans think it was easier to blame the new wife. They think she was a scapegoat to explain the dysfunction, although it was there way before the family ever laid eyes on her.

Sister Wives: Before Robyn Brown… There Were Three

In the early days, when Kody Brown had only three wives, it sounded like a different Sister Wives world. Despite the friction when wives number two and three came on board, the ladies said they worked it out. But that didn’t happen when Robyn Brown stepped into the picture.

Before the fourth wife, they all lived under one roof. But each had a separate apartment for themselves and their kids. This allowed Kody to spend time with all his kids daily, no matter which wife’s bedroom he’d be sleeping in that night.

They all shared child care, with Christine Brown opting to be the stay-at-home mom for Meri Brown and Janelle Brown‘s kids as well as her own. These three original Sister Wives brides had their problems, but they reported that back then, they were manageable.

They said there was a little animosity regarding Kody’s time, but very little. He mostly shared his time equally with the trio. These reports of harmony between the three original wives from the Sister Wives came from a book the adults penned several years back.

Robyn Shows Up and Things Go Down Hill… Really?

You have heard it before from the other wives. They described how Robyn changed the dynamics of the Sister Wives family. But you’ve heard Kody and Robyn Brown deny this. Still, things have come up through the years that raised questions for some fans about Robyn causing all the problems.

Despite all the bashing online for wife number four, there are still some viewers who don’t see her as the wife who wrecked their home.

So, it seems like that book suggests that things ran well before wife number four graced their doorstep. But things popped up through the years that suggested that wasn’t true. We’ve heard time and time again how Kody was a great father until Robyn and her kids took up his time.

But a clip featuring Christine in the confessional from years back seems to say something different. It looks like the Sister Wives family suffered the same type of problems before any of them ever heard of Robyn.

Sister Wives: Dysfunction from the Get-Go?

One case in point speaks to Kody Brown as a husband and father. It also says something about the original three co-wives as well. This happened before a fourth wife was considered.

Christine needed help as a young mom before the Sister Wives show came to the screen. They all lived in one house and after watching the kids all day while everyone worked, Christine went to her night job.

But Kody refused to put the kids to bed for Christine, instead, a 10-year-old Aspyn Brown had to do it.  So, what’s up with this? The Sister Wives family lived in one house. Plus, Christine watched all the other kids so Meri and Janelle could work. Why wouldn’t Kody, Meri, or Janelle, help put Christine’s kids to bed?

The wives would bicker, and the proverbial fur would fly. It trickled down to the kids, many of whom as adults accuse Meri of being mean. Maddie Brown Brush even suggested she lived with a monster. Robyn Brown wasn’t there for any of this. So, it sounds like she didn’t walk into a paradise.

Kody Brown’s Behavior Festered Jealousy in His Original Three Wives?

When Robyn Brown came into the family, what likely happened was jealousy took over. The three other wives admitted they were jealous of this new wife, who had all of Kody’s attention. Christine even once said she wanted what Robyn had with Kody.

So, Robyn stirring up the jealousy is understandable. She was pretty, new, and younger than the other Sister Wives brides. So while she might have been the source of their jealousy, Kody was the one who made her that source, with his attention focused on his new bride.

As far as a functional family? Well, what we saw on the Sister Wives show in the beginning sure looked like it. But once Robyn was in the mix, the tears flowed and it was a mess. So, she said she had no idea the other wives weren’t thrilled about her marrying Kody.

While Robyn Brown’s presence riffled up the inner workings of that family, some fans think she got a bad rap. It seems there was plenty of dysfunction inside that family before she came along. At best, her presence added to it. This is how some of the TLC series’ viewers see it today when it comes to online Robyn Brown.

Meri’s Bold Move

Amidst the chaos, Meri Brown has decided to take a stand. Historically, Meri has often been seen as the more reserved and contemplative wife, especially following her own marital issues with Kody. However, seeing Robyn under fire has prompted Meri to take decisive action.

In a bold move, Meri confronted Kody and Robyn about the unfair treatment and the growing discord within the family. She has advocated for a more equitable distribution of responsibilities and respect among all the wives. Meri’s actions are not just about defending Robyn but also about addressing the broader issues of favoritism and inequality that have plagued their family structure.

Impact on Family Dynamics

The repercussions of these events are significant. Kody’s relationship with Robyn is now under intense scrutiny, and their ability to reconcile and rebuild trust is uncertain. Meanwhile, Meri’s newfound assertiveness may alter her role within the family, potentially leading to a shift in the balance of power and influence among the wives.

Christine and Janelle, the other wives, are also likely to be affected. They may need to choose sides or find ways to mediate and support their sister wives, adding another layer of complexity to the family’s dynamic.

Fans React

Fans of “Sister Wives” have been vocal about their reactions to these developments. Many have expressed support for Meri’s actions, praising her for standing up against what they see as Kody’s unfair treatment of Robyn. Others are concerned about the long-term impact on the family’s cohesion and whether these conflicts can ever be fully resolved.

What’s Next?

As the season progresses, viewers can expect more intense discussions and confrontations as the Browns attempt to navigate their way through these troubled waters. The future of Kody and Robyn’s relationship hangs in the balance, and Meri’s role within the family continues to evolve.
