Sister Wivesseason 19 has shown a new side ofRobyn Brown’sability to make herself the victim in any situation, andhas proven that she can be hypocritical no matter the circumstancessurrounding her. Throughout the last season ofSister Wives,Robyn has shown that though she’s happily married to Kody Brown without the plural marriage she always dreamed of, she’s still able to make any drama possible about her.Sister Wivesseason 19has proven that even once Robyn’s managed to get her way, it’s not enough for her to finally feel truly at peace in her life.
Robyn,who joined Kody’s plural familywith Christine Brown, Janelle Brown, and Meri Brown in 2010, has been doing everything she can to keep up with the original Brown wives for years. While Kody was married to Meri, Janelle, and Christine for roughly 30 years before things broke down, his marriage to Robyn is far younger than his other relationships, which has caused some serious friction for the family. Although Robyn did her best to insert herself into the already-formed family for years,she’s been struggling to justify her decisions now that she’s helped push her fellow sister wives away.
AsRobyn and Kody navigate their livesafter plural marriage, the couple has likely been looking back on what went wrong in Kody’s previous relationships. While Robyn and her fellow sister wives weren’t in relationships with each other romantically, the family structure put them together frequently, and they had no choice but to move through their time together as, if not a unit, at least a united front. Robyn, an outlier in the family,often felt othered or made to be an outsider as she moved through her time building relationshipswith Christine, Janelle, and Meri over their years together.
While Robyn may have deserved to be brought more thoroughly into the family, her behavior throughout the early years of her relationship with Kody and his other wives was rocky. Kody bringing Robyn into the family made waves and disrupted the long-held status quo, whichmade it difficult for the Browns to functionin a way that made sense. Robyn’s behavior, wherein she frequently tried to blame others for her problems and made herself look like the victim, has been criticized through the years by family members and viewers.Robyn’s ability to make herself the victim has always been shocking.
Robyn has often positioned herself as Kody’s most empathetic, emotionally available wife, but her actions don’t always match up with her words.
6Robyn Doesn’t Want The OG3 Talking About Her Relationship
But Robyn Will Speak About The OG3’s Relationships
As Robyn got toknow more about the Brown familyas a whole and shared more with her sister wives, she made it clear that her relationships with Christine, Janelle, and Meri were more transactional than she anticipated. Expecting none of the original trio of wives to talk about her relationship with Kody,Robyn went into plural marriage expecting to have a far different experiencethan she ultimately did. While she didn’t want Christine, Janelle, or Meri to talk about her marriage, their relationships were completely on the table for her to discuss and theorize about.
When things shifted in the Brown family around the time of the COVID-19 pandemic beginning, Robyn began to talk more openly with her husband about his other marriages in a negative light. ThoughRobyn had always been more of a gossipwhen it came to Kody’s relationships with his other wives, she became even more of an instigator in the drama between them during the quarantine. ThoughRobyn apparently wanted to be part of a plural marriage, she tries to ignore the parts of the dynamic she doesn’t want to deal with.
5Robyn Judges The OG3 For Giving Up On Their Marriages To Kody
While Robyn Is Divorced Herself
Sister Wiveshas been a lot for the entire Brown family to handle, and the last few seasons of the series have been the most difficult to date. As the show has gone on,Robyn’s marriage to Kody has grown stronger while his other relationships have fallen to the wayside. While Kody and Robyn’s marriage has been able to thrive with their solid foundation, Kody stopped putting work into his other relationships somewhere along the line, and it began to show the cracks in their foundations within a few short years.
Kody and Christine’s marriage, which had been rocky after bringing Robyn into the family, took a nosedive first, while Janelle and Meri were slower to come to the conclusion of leaving Kody and the family behind. While Robyn, who was married toher first husband David Jessopfor about ten years, has felt hurt of her own about the divorces, she’s been harder on the original trio of wives than she’s ever been on Kody. While she hasn’t been tough on herself for her own divorce,Robyn’s been difficult surrounding the original trio choosing to separate from the family.
4Robyn Plays The Victim Card
When The OG3 Are Actually The Victims
Robyn consistently plays the victim cardwhen it comes to her relationships with Kody, the kids, and his ex-wives regardless of what’s happening in their lives. While Robyn has had tough moments on Sister Wives like the rest of the family, she’s often one of the more vocal about the bad things that have happened to her than others, making things seem far worse than they actually are. ThroughoutSister Wives’run,viewers have come to know Robyn as someone who makes themselves the victim in every scenario, ensuring that there are always moments she can gain sympathy from viewers.
ThroughoutSister Wives’most recent seasons,Robyn’s been quick to try and make herselfout to be the victim when she’s not facing nearly as much difficulty as Kody, Christine, Janelle, or Meri. With Robyn continuing in her marriage to Kody, she may be feeling the pain on Kody’s side as he’s been facing rejection, but she’s still in a long-term committed relationship with someone who loves and values her. Rather than taking things personally, Robyn should be looking at the separations as a difficult part of Christine, Janelle, and Meri’s lives, not her own.
3Robyn Allows Kody To Favor Her Children
She Doesn’t Push For Relationships With His Other Kids
Throughout Kody’s time onSister Wives, and even prior in his years of plural marriage, he’s made it clear that his kids aren’t all on an equal playing field in his mind. When it comes to Kody’s love and attention, he doesn’t often make himself available to all of his children, despite the fact that he tries to claim otherwise.Kody’s behavior regarding his kids has been a major sore spot forSister Wivesviewers, and Robyn’s influence surrounding that has never helped with her perception from those who have consistently watched the show.
While Robyn’s kids from her first marriage were brought into the Brown family and treated as Kody’s biological kids from the jump,it’s been clear that there have been times that Robyn felt her kids were being otheredby the other kids in the family. In securing a lot of Kody’s attention because of these feelings, Robyn’s done her best to verify that Kody gives as much of his attention as possible to her children, even when it’s cost him having genuine relationships with his other kids.Robyn wants Kody to favor her children, even to the others' detriment.
2Robyn Didn’t Give Ysabel Comparative Attention To Dayton After Surgery
She Didn’t Care For One Of The Children In The Family
Robyn has often positioned herself as Kody’s most empathetic, emotionally available wife, but her actions don’t always match up with her words. One of the clearest examples of her hypocrisy happened when Christine’s daughter, Ysabel Brown, had major back surgery for her scoliosis. While the rest of the family offered support,Robyn chose to stay home, citing COVID-19 concerns. Meanwhile, when her biological son Dayton had his own surgery years prior, and Robyn made sure that she was fully present and supportive throughout his recovery process.Robyn’s hypocrisy was on full displayin her lack of care for Ysabel.
Robyn choosing to be there for her biological children whileclaiming the rest of the Brown kidswere just as important to her without showing support made her feelings clear. While there may have been concerns about the pandemic at the time, Robyn was open about the fact that she was quarantining, which would’ve allowed her to support Ysabel in some way.Robyn’s loyalty and compassion have limits when it comes to the kids of the family who aren’t her own, even if she doesn’t want Kody orSister Wivesviewers to think so.
1Robyn Preaches Sexual Purity
She’s Currently On Her Second Marriage
For years,Robyn has been an advocatefor sexual purity to her children andSister Wivesviewers as a whole, which causes some moments of hypocrisy as the show has seen her through multiple relationships and shown some of the damaging impacts she’s had on others. Robyn has repeatedly stressed the importance of abstinence for her children, consistently sharing views about sex and physical intimacy that go along with her religious beliefs. Trying to stress the importance of family values to her kids,Robyn’s comments have sparked criticism as they don’t align with her own behaviorin the past.
Robyn, who joined the family after a decade-long marriage and divorce,has lived a life that doesn’t abide by her current religious beliefs. While that’s not necessarily wrong, pushing her beliefs now onto her kids rather than having healthy, open conversations about what they want from their futures is hypocritical in nature.Robyn’s insistence on purity, moral behavior, and honestyabout her kids' feelings on that makes it clear that she’s not looking for their input on the matter. Instead, theSister Wivesstar fuels villain narratives with her preachy behavior and inability to be flexible.
