On the second part of Sister Wives: 1-on-1, Robyn Brown claimed that she understands Kody better than his ex-wives Christine and Janelle Brown. The tell-all special was part of the multi-episode reunion of Sister Wives season 18. Robyn noted that she thinks Kody Brown’s ex-wives all have the capacity to understand and communicate with him. Christine and Janelle disagreed, stating that they both understand Kody very well. They both expressed annoyance at Robyn positioning herself as the one who speaks Kody. Janelle revealed that Robyn even tried to pull this line on her children.
Janelle later spoke about her and Kody’s sex life, hinting that they had a strong physical connection but refused to discuss explicit details. Christine and Janelle both mentioned how they felt they had to “earn” Kody’s love by conforming to his expectations.
The episode also touched on Kody’s turbulent relationship with Meri. Although he expressed that he will always love her, he admitted that he can’t be in love with her and that they could not functionally be in a marriage relationship. Meri also shared a painful memory about Kody melting down his wedding ring from her.
The women’s relationships with Kody Brown have all had their ups and downs and many viewers were shocked when nearly all his wives started to leave him.
