A friend of Kody Brown’s shared an opinion that eventually wound up reflecting reality for Sister Wives.
Fans of the TLC series Sister Wives have enjoyed watching it for a long time. The sitcom revolves around a polygamous family, and viewers have grown accustomed to Kody Brown, his four wives, and their total of eighteen children. Despite the family’s long-standing commitment to multiple marriage, some individuals in their life disapproved of their unions.
At a shared event, Kody, the wives, and someone else were once approached by someone who took a strong stand against the choices the family had made in life and expressed his disapproval on tape. This person presented Kody with a problem that finally worked out. Did he use his expertise to foretell the fate of the Sister Wives family? Or was the result the result of Kody’s actions in not standing up for his family?
Not Everyone Was Impressed With Kody Brown’s Polygamist Lifestyle
The beginning of the Sister Wives series saw the family fleeing from their shared home in Utah amid arrest rumors that they would be prosecuted for their chosen lifestyle. After they settled in Las Vegas and began their new lives in the state of Nevada, the family began experiencing turmoil internally as well as externally, which followed the family as they later relocated to Arizona.
Not only were they surrounded by groups and individuals who didn’t support the makeup of their family, but Kody himself was amassing a significant amount of debt that had some of his wives frustrated and worried about their future and stability as a family.
Having been used to comments and threats about their family for years, the Brown family grew accustomed to ignoring the behaviors and continuing with their lives. However, a friend of Kody’s made a particularly hurtful statement that stopped the wives in their tracks.
This event resulted in multiple arguments and the possible demise of the family. What did this friend allege about the Brown family, and why did it resonate so strongly?
Kody’s Friend Once Warned Him Against Having Multiple Wives
In a clip from an episode of the Sister Wives television show, Kody Brown and his wives are seen attending his high school reunion and sitting among other attendees. During their time at the event, a friend of Kody’s, who goes by the name of Kyle, tells him that he disagrees with the plural lifestyle that Kody has taken on since high school.
Kyle goes on to say that Kody ought to divorce three of his wives in order to be accepted back into the church they previously attended. In front of Kody Brown and his four wives as well as other acquaintances present, this proclamation was made.
It was particularly painful for the women and the audience that Kody made no effort to stand up for the honor of his wives or his family. He actually carried on his friendship with the guy and pretended that the remark had never happened.
This act angered the wives, especially Christine, who pointed out that if the tables were turned, Kody wouldn’t want his wives to engage in a relationship with an individual like that. Instead, he would want them to take a supportive stance and move forward without that person and their negative influence in their lives.
Eventually, Three Of Kody’s Wives Left Anyway
Although Kody’s wives have divorced from men in the past, such as Robyn from David Jessop, it wasn’t until much later in the TV show that Kody Brown’s wife did so. Three of the Brown marriages ended in divorce, for a variety of reasons, but it’s possible that Kody’s laziness in standing up for the women in his life affected his choices.
Having moved on from their connections with the patriarch of the Brown family, Christine, Meri, and Janelle have found success and fulfillment in their new lives. Since then, Janelle is getting back in touch with her children, Meri is spending more time at her bed and breakfast, and Christine Brown has remarried and bought a new house in Utah.
While the original three wives went through a bout of heartbreak regarding their separation from Kody, they now find themselves in a better place, with Janelle saying that she is in a more peaceful state without Kody. Although the future is unknown for how the Sister Wives series will proceed with the new family dynamic, fans are just as invested as ever in the drama that encircles the once polygamous unit.
Did Kody’s high school friend predict the future of the Brown family with his statement at their class reunion? While we will never know for sure, perhaps he saw flaws in the family dynamic that fans weren’t privy to and called the situation as he saw it while interjecting his personal beliefs into the conversation as well.
Ultimately, the projection panned out, and the Brown family looks much different than they did during that fateful conversation.
