Three Ways Kody Brown Is Sabotaging His Marriage to Robyn

It can be argued that Kody Brown was not lucky in love. The Sister Wives star had hoped to prove that love should be multiplied and not divided but has failed miserably. And while Kody is more than content to sick back and blame those around him for his shortcomings, the fact remains that he only has himself to blame. At one time, Kody had four wives: Meri Brown, Christine Brown, Janelle Brown, and Robyn Brown . But now the father of 18 is down to just one.

Robyn was always held high on a pedestal. Kody often compared his first three wives to his fourth, which never went over well. As Season 19 is about to premiere, Kody is again finding himself in a tough spot. Robyn has been his longtime supporter, but with a major communication breakdown, it is starting to feel like Kody was looking for love in all the wrong places (looking for love in too many faces).

1. Kody Brown is his own worst enemy

The Season 19 sneak peek footage shows Kody’s discord with his plural family again. One scene shows Kody angrily ranting, “They have all betrayed me! I am out of my mind.” As a longtime viewer, I, like many others, have picked up on some of Kody’s idiosyncrasies. The man has a way of making himself believe that he is the martyr of his own life. Kody often had plans of grandeur, which stemmed from his love of control. But the moment a wife didn’t go along with the exact plan, he would throw himself down on the floor and have a metaphorical tantrum. Instead of listening to his spouses, he tried to pull their opinions in, which shut down their right to express a valid argument.

Kody’s overinflated ego has been the culprit behind his relationship’s demise. He blames his ex-wives for everything that has gone wrong and even treats some of his older children as if they were his sworn enemy. Kody is arrogant. He would rather cut out his older children than try to make peace with them. But by alienating the children, he has also given his former wives the ick. What mother would stand for their children being mistreated? None.

2. Kody Brown can’t please Robyn Brown

TLC viewers were not prepared for the Season 19 trailer to drop. What was more shocking was that the sneak peek showed Robyn at her wits’ end with Kody. For so many years, the two have been inseparable and on the same page. But something feels off between the two as of late. After Kody blows up over another family issue, Robyn is shown crying in the background. As Sobbin Robyn tries her best to confront her extremely emotional husband, the mother of five is obviously losing her patience. In her confessional, she notes that Kody is “sabotaging our relationship.”

Kody is then shown taking his anger out on the wood he is trying to chop. Robyn’s motives have always been questioned by fans and family alike. But Kody has started to lose his plot these last few seasons. The man just can’t keep his emotions in check. The once divorced Robyn had made it clear she wanted to grow old with her sister wives and is seen telling cameras, “I feel like the idiot that got left behind.” Could it be after 14 years of marriage Robyn has finally gotten the ick?

3. The patriarchy seemingly turned Kody Brown into a monster

There is no doubt that when Christine left the clan, what was left of Kody’s fragile masculinity broke. During Season 17, fans threw up in their mouths a little when they heard Kody try to put his foot down. The Arizona resident stated, “I’m going to be the head of my household again, and I’m not going to be circumvented in that. If everybody’s willing to conform to patriarchy again … ’cause I’ve been fighting to make everybody happy. My bitterness is out of trying to do that and not having the family that I had thought about and designed.” It always struck me as ironic how Kody felt he was going to come across as less masculine in front of his wives. The speech, however, showed that Kody still has his knuckles dragging on the ground.

I mean, nothing says you aren’t in charge like having to announce you are in charge repeatedly. The thing with Kody is he isn’t about to change. In his mind, he truly feels that he has only offered his best to these women. And as I once was told, “You can’t fix stupid.” Now, I would be surprised if Robyn also decided to leave Kody in the dust. Even though she probably should get out of dodge, I think she will stick with him because, at the very least, she can still turn his neck to favor her.
