‘Sister Wives’ Star Robyn Brown Confesses Being Kody’s Only Wife Is ‘Not Great’: Wanted to ‘Live My Religion’

Sister Wives star Robyn Brown has made it clear throughout her marriage to Kody Brown that she wanted to marry into a polygamous family. Following Kody’s splits from three of his four wives, the father of 18 is worried he’s lost his “value” in Robyn’s eyes.

“She married me under the premise of plural marriage with the expectation of plural marriage,” Kody, 56, said during a confessional in a preview clip obtained by Us Weekly for the upcoming episode of their TLC series. “When the other wives left, I wondered if my value to her was diminished. I’m still wondering.”

According to Kody, Robyn, 47, “struggled” after his divorces from ex-wives Christine Brown, Janelle Brown and Meri Brown.

Robyn was previously married to a man named David Jessop. Their monogamous relationship ended in divorce before she joined the Brown family.

Kody – who was legally wed to first wife Meri, 54, at the time – divorced Meri in order to legally marry Robyn and adopt her three children from her previous marriage.

“Sure, being the only wife is great in some ways, but there’s also ways that it’s not great,” Robyn said in the preview clip. “This was not the life that I expected and not the life that I planned for myself. While I love Kody, I did not ever intend or expect or want to have him to myself. I always wanted to live plural marriage. I wanted to live my religion.”
