Cody Brown, the patriarch of Sister Wives, managed to safeguard his TLC salary over the seasons despite challenges that could have led to the show’s cancellation. There was a large time delay, the content had become redundant, and the wives were dispersed. The show, which was initially pitched as a joyful portrayal of polygamy, instead highlighted the negative aspects of plural marriage, with Cody even expressing regret for his actions.
When Sister Wives premiered in 2010, Cody Brown and his three long-term wives shared a house. Cody had been married to Mary since 1990, Janelle since 1993, and Christine since 1994. They had 12 kids together, with another on the way. Despite this, Cody was also courting Robyn Sullivan, a divorced woman with three children who lived five hours away. The dynamics of his three marriages, along with his interest in a new prospect and his growing family, piqued the interest of the audience.
Since then, the family has experienced significant changes. They relocated from Utah to Las Vegas, Cody married Robyn, filed for divorce from Mary, and they moved to Flagstaff. The pandemic struck, and Christine left the family, with Cody revealing he was over their romantic relationship. However, these events were not happening in real-time, which made it difficult for viewers to keep up.
A Reddit thread emerged questioning how Cody managed to keep his TLC funds. Speculations arose, including whether Cody’s move to Flagstaff was for show ratings or for other reasons. Some viewers believed that Cody struggled in Vegas, but it was later revealed that TLC paid for the enormous house blueprints, suggesting the drama was staged for the show.
Despite controversies and challenges, including Cody’s irrational conduct, the move to Flagstaff, and Christine’s departure, the show continued to intrigue viewers. Fans are now tuning in to see how the once happy and functional family will end, and whether it will generate enough revenue for TLC to fund a few more seasons.
In a shocking development, Robyn Brown has been spotted online seemingly promoting items for sale on her website, My Sister Wife’s Closet. Fans have raised concerns about the high prices and the quality of the products. Some have criticized the website’s expanded product lineup, calling the prices demeaning and questioning whether anyone has ever ordered anything from the site. Fans are divided on whether Robyn is in need of cash, but the controversy has added another layer of intrigue to the Sister Wives saga.
