By now, everyone knows the Sister Wives saga has turned into a dramatic unraveling of plural marriage, and Robyn Brown, once the so-called “favorite wife” of Kody Brown, has officially had enough of the blame game.
During the latest Sister Wives: One on One special, Robyn Brown finally spoke up about the tension between her and Kody Brown’s former wives: Meri, Janelle, and Christine. And let’s just say, she’s not holding back, per Today.
“I think there’s a lot of focus on me. I actually get really tired of it,” Robyn told host Sukanya Krishnan. If you’ve followed the show, you know that ever since Robyn joined the family, fans and fellow wives alike have accused her of being Kody’s “favorite,” the one who got special treatment while the others were left on emotional islands. But according to Robyn, that’s not the full story.
“I try very hard to be kind and supportive and respectful to everyone. I stay in my lane,” she insisted. And yet, she’s become a lightning rod for criticism from both inside and outside the family.
Robyn Brown Sends A Clear Message To Her Former Sister Wives

Christine, who was the first of the three women to officially leave Kody, has been especially vocal about Robyn’s role in the family’s breakdown. “I didn’t feel like I had a say,” Christine said in Season 17, adding that she believed Kody prioritized Robyn and her kids above the rest. Janelle echoed similar sentiments, at one point bluntly stating, “I don’t know who that guy is anymore.”
While Meri stayed the longest despite years of emotional distance from Kody, she too eventually walked away. Yet Robyn is now the last wife standing, and according to her, that comes with a heavy emotional toll. “I still mourn the loss of the family. That was real to me. I didn’t sign up for this to be the only wife,” Robyn explained, her voice cracking slightly.
The cultural conversation around Sister Wives has always been intense, especially because the show offered a rare mainstream glimpse into modern polygamy. For over a decade, viewers watched the Brown family navigate complex dynamics, from raising children across households to battling jealousy and heartbreak. But in recent seasons, the cracks became impossible to ignore.
Now with only Robyn left in the picture, it’s hard not to wonder if she’s simply the last one willing to hang on, or if she really was the glue that held it together until it all fell apart.
Despite the tension, Sister Wives star Robyn Brown wants her truth known. Whether fans believe it is another story.
