Sister Wives star Robyn Brown appeared in the first part of the TLC wedding special, but when she pops up again for the second part, it looks like she’s working some kind of strategy.
Sister Wives: Robyn Brown In Real-Time
Robyn Brown appeared in the episode dedicated to Christine Brown‘s wedding, despite not being invited to the event. All the spouses who made up the Sister Wives series showed up on the screen as well. But Janelle was the only one with Christine on her special day out of the five adults who made up this now-defunct plural marriage.
Still, the others showed up from a remote location, and they appeared on-screen to comment on the wedding event. When Sister Wives Season 18 rolled out several weeks ago, what viewers saw was filmed more than a year ago.
But Christine Brown married David Woolley in October, only a few months ago. So, once the Sister Wives crew filmed and edited the footage from her wedding special, it was much closer to real-time than the rest of the season.
This means what you see on the screen over this two-part special is very recent. More so than what the Sister Wives fans are used to. Usually, you see things a year or so after they happen. So, when Robyn Brown speaks, you hear her talking from a mindset that’s likely still with her today.
Plus, Robyn Brown’s antics in the second half of this two-part episode seem to change. She fluffs up things a bit and even attempts comedy. Like when she lip-locks Kody while swiping her hand toward the camera to go away.
Something Changes For Robyn
During the Sister Wives wedding special, Robyn continued to display her sobbing in scenes. Fans are so used to these behaviors by now. So, lately, they seem to dedicate less social media space to her signature boohooing.
In a recent interview, the youngest of the Sister Wives brides seems to send a message about her beloved Kody Brown. Now that he’s lived without his other three wives for a while, Robyn Brown suggests the smoke is clearing.
She casually explains this by saying she’s seeing glimpses of the man she married. In this new interview, she says, “I do see the man that I married from time to time. Then Robyn adds how she sees the old Kody more as he processes his new situation in life.
But it doesn’t sound as if she’s worried. She also said, “I just know this is a temporary situation where he’s just dealing with a lot.” So gone are the sniffles and moans like we saw when she discussed the self-sabotaging Kody did to her marriage.
In its place, Robyn appears to see a light at the end of the very dark tunnel for Kody. Still, you have to wonder how Robyn and Kody feel about playing second fiddle during this week and next week’s upcoming show. But if you think about what she’s saying, it looks as if a new strategy unfolds for the only Sister Wives couple.
Sister Wives: Change of Battle Plans?
Robyn Brown and her once-shared husband are well aware by now of how popular Christine Brown has become since jumping ship. Her marriage to David Woolley not only has one week, but two weeks of episodes dedicated to their special day on Sister Wives.
The other Sister Wives adults are merely guests on the episode, but not wedding guests. They offer a narrative of this big event. So, as they take the backseat to Christine and her groom, they have to wonder about the future of their TLC series. Especially with the chorus of fans online singing loudly for a spinoff with Robyn and her husband left out.

So, it looks like Kody’s recent MO of keeping the fans entertained and disturbed at the same time is not working. It seems his reactions to the ladies became so volatile that he’s lost his gift of enticing fans in for more. This could prompt Robyn to change direction, which is what it sounds like she’s doing when it comes to Kody.
Now it seems Robyn suggests that Kody is slowly morphing into the old Kody Brown. That’s the man who the fans found more tolerable than the guy they saw in the last few seasons. So, it looks as if Robyn is paving the way for that good old-fashioned Kody Brown to return.
Perhaps this is their attempt at securing the show’s longevity, with the two of them taking their places at the helm of the Sister Wives on TLC.
