Robyn Brown, Kody Brown, and Christine Brown. TLC; TLC; TLC “Sister Wives” aired the final part of its season 17 tell-all on Sunday. After watching the whole season, we still have some questions.
We’d like explanations about Kody’s choices and Robyn’s emotional moments. Does Robyn actually cry?Robyn Brown. TLCKody Brown’s legal wife Robyn Brown has gotten upset and appeared to cry so many times on “Sister Wives” that she has even laughed about the nickname the internet gave her on the show — “sobbin’ Robyn.
” Since many of Kody’s relationships are now in trouble, Robyn, who has said she wants to live a polygamous lifestyle — has had plenty of reasons to be upset throughout season 17. She appeared to cry a lot, but the question remains: is she actually shedding tears? Robyn wipes her eyes a lot and turns her head away from the camera, but that doesn’t mean tears are actually falling. We’ve rarely seen one, if ever.
How does Kody feel about forgetting Gabriel’s birthday?Gabriel Brown and Kody Brown. TLC; TLCKody’s relationship with his son Gabriel Brown, 21, suffered in season 17 because of another apparent misstep of Kody’s. His second wife Janelle Brown’s youngest son said that on his 20th birthday in October 2021, Kody (who had COVID at the time) called him to ask about the symptoms he experienced when he had the virus.
“I shouldn’t have done this but I did anyway. I didn’t remind him that it was my birthday because I wanted to see if he remembered, and he didn’t,” Gabriel said in a solo interview on “Sister Wives. ” He said that his dad later realized his mistake and called him back.
“That’s the last time I ever talked to my dad,” Gabriel said through tears. No footage of Kody being asked about the incident was shown on the “Sister Wives” episode and footage of “Sister Wives: One on One” host Sukanya Krishnan asking about Gabriel’s birthday didn’t make the tell-all. We have to assume it’s because no one asked him about it.
We’d like to know why not. Kody deserves to both explain himself and apologize. What ‘sacrifices’ has Kody made to love Christine?Kody and Christine on the “Sister Wives” season 16 finale.
TLC; TLCIn a season 17 episode of “Sister Wives,” when Christine Brown was discussing her move from Arizona to Utah with Kody, Janelle, Robyn, and Meri Brown, Kody got angry with Christine and said her words and actions were like a “knife in the kidneys” because of all of the “sacrifices” he had made “to love” her. He didn’t give examples of what he meant in the episode, but in the season premiere, Christine mentioned that Kody had refused to help her put her kids to bed when she was working outside of the house and all of them were minors. The whole Brown family lived in one house with attached apartments at the time.
“I asked Kody, I said, ‘I need your help,’ and he goes, ‘I can’t do that, I’m in other houses,'” she said. In a solo interview on the same episode, Kody said that what Christine was describing “never happened. ” Since the first episode of “Sister Wives,” it’s been established that Christine was the primary caretaker of Janelle’s kids during the day while she worked, in addition to having a part-time job at night.
In the episode featuring Kody’s emotional speech, Janelle called his words “harsh” while Meri said he had probably been “holding it in” for a long time and she was “glad he said it. ” In the tell-all, Meri admitted to Krishnan that no woman would like hearing a former romantic partner say they had to make sacrifices to love them. However, Krishnan didn’t ask Kody to further elaborate on his words, but we wish we could’ve heard an answer.
Will Kody ever be held accountable for going to his friend’s wedding yet skipping out on his daughter’s surgery?Ysabel and Kody Brown. TLC; TLCKody and Christine’s daughter Ysabel Brown (now 19) had surgery to correct scoliosis during the filming of season 16 in September 2020, and Kody elected not to travel with them to the east coast for the operation, citing the dangers of COVID. Christine told People that it was while caring for Ysabel alone that she realized she could leave Kody.
In season 17, which was filmed months later, Kody traveled to officiate a friend’s wedding, and Christine said in a solo interview on “Sister Wives” that her daughters Ysabel and Gwendlyn were “mad” and “heartbroken” by his choice. Christine said Ysabel even directly asked, “How can he justify officiating Brian’s wedding when he wouldn’t even come to my surgery?'” Kody did answer the question during a solo interview on the show. “Ysabel’s surgery was at a time and a situation where it would’ve required that I’m six or eight weeks away from home,” he said.
“No man can be away from work and from home and from family that long. “Even though Kody explained his choice to the cameras, viewers expect big moments from the season to be explained even further during a tell-all. But, Krishnan didn’t bring up the wedding or Kody’s apparently strained relationship with Ysabel.
Does Christine’s daughter Truely stay at Robyn and Kody’s house when she visits Flagstaff?Kody, Christine, and Truely Brown in 2020. Christine Brown on InstagramIn season 17, Christine moved from Flagstaff, Arizona where her ex Kody Brown and the larger Brown family are based to the Salt Lake City, Utah area to be closer to her family, including some of her adult kids. She took her 12-year-old daughter Truely Brown with her, which caused tension between Christine and Kody.
Throughout the season, viewers saw Kody say he wanted Truely to stay with him at his wife Robyn Brown’s house, though he’d yet to provide a bed there for his daughter. During one of their visits to Flagstaff after their move to Utah, Truely stayed with Kody’s second wife Janelle Brown and Janelle’s daughter Savanah Brown, (who is now 18) in their RV to experience camping and make s’mores. But Christine said on episodes of “Sister Wives” that Truely only wanted to stay with Kody for a few hours and hadn’t stayed overnight.
Though much had been made of Christine taking Truely away from Kody and the larger family on season 17, “Sister Wives: One on One” tell-all host Sukanya Krishnan never asked Christine or Kody if Truely had a bed in Robyn’s house yet or not. Inquiring minds just want to know if the pre-teen gets quality time with her dad. All episodes of “Sister Wives” are available to stream now on Discovery Plus.
