Brown Family Struggles Continue Amid Accusations
Kody Brown’s family is grappling with deep divisions as he points fingers at his ex-wives, Janelle Brown and Christine Brown, accusing them of undermining him.
During the latest episode of Sister Wives on Sunday, September 3, Kody, aged 54, had a sit-down with his current wife Robyn Brown and Meri Brown after a heated clash with Janelle, also 54, over their separation. The conversation centered around the family’s Christmas plans, with Kody asserting that Janelle and Christine, aged 51, were teaming up against him.
“I think they’re trying to shut me out because they’re mad at me,” he revealed, highlighting that his former spouses planned to celebrate the holidays together.
Kody shared details of the intense discussion he had with Janelle, describing the exchange as shouting matches and misunderstandings. He admitted, “I don’t even know what I was yelling [about].”
The ongoing pandemic had caused tension between Kody and his sons Gabriel and Garrison, whom he shares with Janelle. Kody aimed to enforce strict quarantine measures, but his children resisted to maintain their social lives.
“The boys aren’t talking to me,” Kody lamented, explaining that he had tried reaching out to everyone involved. He expressed frustration that the lack of communication led to misunderstandings and negative perceptions about him.
Kody alleged that his family members were constructing false narratives about him. “They’re talking to each other about it, but they’re not talking to me about it,” he claimed. He also pointed out that Christine and Janelle were making efforts to diminish his role as the head of the family, a development he seemed to accept.
Christine, speaking separately, noted that she became the family’s leader out of necessity after her split from Kody in 2021. She emphasized her role in providing love, security, and acceptance to her kids.
Meri, meanwhile, revealed her struggle in the midst of the family’s fractured dynamics. Feeling caught between Christine and Janelle’s opposing views, she admitted, “I’m like the third wheel because I’m just here. I don’t know what to do.”
Kody empathized with Meri’s perspective, as they had already confirmed their own separation. While admitting to crossing boundaries with Janelle in their argument, he expressed disinterest in reconciling with her.
Summing up his feelings, Kody revealed, “I just want to run away from everybody whose been so uncool about what I’ve tried to do to protect the family.” He added, “There’s this feeling that we’ve all been done wrong.”
As the Brown family continues to navigate their challenges, the journey unfolds on TLC’s Sister Wives, airing Sundays at 10 p.m. ET.
