It’s taxing, the business of sticking up for a husband like Kody Brown. Nevertheless, Robyn Brown persists. Case in point, Kody has a strained relationship with most of his children, as seen on Sister Wives. But this narrative is not his fault, says Robyn. Instead, his rocky relationships are the result of his former wives, who heavily influenced his children.
Kody Brown doesn’t have a great relationship with all of his children
On the most recent episode of Sister Wives, Robyn suggested something that frustrated Kody’s former wives-in-christ. As she suggested, Christine Brown and Janelle Brown influenced their children to go against their father. In her eyes, Kody’s words, actions, deflections, hair, and dance moves are not the root cause, basically.
“I think there’s some hurt feelings and misunderstandings, and some influencing that’s been happening. Some pretty intense influencing,” Robyn noted to Kody. Naturally, he agreed.
“I don’t think parents actually completely realize how much little things they say actually influence the way their children think about the other parent,” Robyn later stressed in her confessional. Also, “In plural marriage, Dad’s not around the same amount as Mom.”
In response, Christine argued, “I’m just exhausted and so tired of being blamed for how his kids feel about him. It’s his responsibility and not mine.” Janelle agreed. In her confessional, she joked, “Look, I wish I had a lot of influence on my adult children. Boy, things would be really different.”
Thankfully, Kody does accept a (small) portion of blame. “I had a lot of mean things to say about their mothers,” he confessed. However, Kody has “reached out to every one of my children, and multiple times. And if they don’t have a relationship with me, it’s because they’re not reciprocating,” he ended, already back on his deflection journey.
Sister Wives airs Sundays at 10/9c on TLC.
