Why Kody And Robyn Brown’S 10-Year Age Gap Doomed Them From The Start

Fans of Sister Wives have witnessed Kody Brown enter the fray due to his negative attitude over the past two years. It has been difficult for months to distinguish between Oscar the Grump and the father of 18. Although Christine Brown’s departure from the family was the main cause of his resentment, it was only the beginning of his issues. Given that he drove the majority of his wives away to be with her, it is astonishing to discover that he now even looks to be turning his back on his favorite and fourth wife, Robyn Brown.

What’s Love Got To Do With It

Although the 10-year age difference might not seem like much, it was apparent in the most recent season of Sister Wives. Robyn married Kody at the age of 31, planning to live a polygamous lifestyle the rest of her life. It is obvious that neither partner discussed the complicated matter, with Robyn largely following Kody’s lead. Robyn might not have been brainwashed, but it’s likely that Kody’s fantastic tales led her to believe the lie of a happily ever after.

Kody grew up in the 70s and was a child of Volkswagens, PONG, and Ziggy Stardust. Robyn, born ten years later in 1982, grew up on Diet Coke, Michael Jackson’s “Thriller,” and E.T. The mother of five grew up in a special time, as the 80s were a decade of firsts for women, such as the first woman to space, the first woman to serve as Supreme Court judge, and the first woman to run for vice president.

With her current “my way or the highway” attitude, Robyn’s rigorous COVID-19 rules, nanny hire, and control over Kody are all easily understandable. Despite Robyn’s declaration that she would never leave Kody, it is entirely possible that the thought has occasionally crossed her mind. If things ever became truly terrible, as a woman with one divorce under her belt, it wouldn’t be difficult to go through the process once more.

Robyn Has Trust Issues With Kody

The youngest wife on Sister Wives recently spoke with People about the “upheaval” the drama has caused for Robyn’s family. Readers learned that the 54-year-old has been pushing his 44-year-old wife further and further away thanks to his outbursts. Even though Kody is questioning plural marriage, it feels like he is also questioning Robyn’s loyalty.

According to Robyn, Kody’s trust issues have “been really hard on our relationship because I think you start questioning yourself when you’re going through a divorce.” While this statement could apply to Kody, it feels like an omen from Robyn. Why would a young, smart woman stay in a dysfunctional relationship? Robyn actually holds all the cards as she has her house in her name, owns a share in an LLC, and has her name on Coyote Pass. With all that money, Robyn could easily walk away from Kody and start over comfortably.

Kody Is Scrutinizing Women Around Him

When Robyn said, “For him, he’s straight, so he questions the opposite sex,” she made a strange observation. Therefore, it involves a significant shift in how you view both yourself and other people. The TLC celebrity admitted that her spouse has been undermining their relationship by “looking at me sideways because I am a woman.” As it turns out, Robyn will also leave Kody because he is under so much stress. Years of him picking conflicts with her without comprehending how detrimental it is to their marriage.

Again, Robyn grew up in the late 80s and 90s. This was a time between when toys could literally kill you, and you stayed out until the street lights came on. But it was also empowering for the women who came to age in the 1990s since they were the first generation of American women who had not been told their only place was in the home.

Even though Robyn chooses to be a wife and mother, threads of her independence shine through brightly as she is often the neck that turns Kody’s head. Overall, Kody may have loved to have a young, hot wife, but he probably wasn’t ever prepared for the amount of independence she had inside her.
