‘Sister Wives’: Kody Brown Blames Christine for Twisting Past

Sister Wives star Kody Brown blames Christine Brown for twisting some of the past around with negative thoughts that skew the truth. There’s probably a good reason that TLC recently posted one older clip ahead of the new season just a week or so away. Maybe it offers a glimpse of the foundation for the wounded Sister Wives marriage between Kody and Christine. Or maybe it gives up some clues to watch for as the Kody-Christine union unravels.

Sister Wives: Kody Brown Offers His Take

TLC posted a couple of scenes from previous seasons that look to have a few purposes. The first is probably to drum up interest in Sister Wives Season 16. Since the season starts later this month, it’s time to start reeling in the fans.

But another reason is most likely to lay down the groundwork for what the Sister Wives season is about to unleash. With Christine Brown no longer with Kody Brown in real-time, fans will look for signs of how this all unraveled and led up to their split.

Sister Wives: Kody Brown - Christine Brown

So, it’s likely TLC offered a jump start to the new season with these clips. Kody challenges Christine’s memory of their time together before Robyn Brown joined the family. Christine’s recollection doesn’t jive with Kody’s memories from back when the three original Sister Wives ladies shared a home.

What he hears Christine say doesn’t sit well with him. He claims she “twisted our past and made it negative.”

Christine Brown Stuck at Backdoor

Christine Brown remembers how the Sister Wives home in Utah was not an ideal living situation. In the clip, she explains to Robyn how her entrance to the home was the backdoor.

Kody never showered there, which was a big deal to Christine. To her, it meant that she didn’t matter to him. The newest youngest Sister Wives bride seems to empathize with her co-wife.

So, maybe TLC hopes this gives the fourth wife a few brownie points with fans. Because of Christine’s “divorce,” she’s in the midst of a storm of finger-pointing and homewrecker name-calling.

Christine also felt her kids’ needs were not met while living together in one house. She felt slighted. Christine said how she tried for years to make her home Kody’s home as well. But it never felt that way to her.

So, for some reason, TLC highlights this clip, seen above. It shows how Christine and Kody were at odds long before Christine made her decision to leave.

Maybe it appears just as the new season rounds the corner to offer up some background for new viewers. Or TLC intends to refresh the memories of veteran followers of the Sister Wives series. Either way, Christine Brown wasn’t happy as one of Kody Brown’s wives for a while now and the retro clips seem to prove it.

Sister Wives: Not the Marriage Wrecker

The clip above, along with another clip that found its way to social media this week via TLC, puts Robyn in a good light. As Soap Dirt mentioned before, Robyn doesn’t communicate with fans between seasons online like the other women from Sister Wives.

So, it looks as if the network used her own words from the past to combat the fan mindset. Again, many viewers blamed Robyn Brown for  Christine Brown’s decision to call it quits with her husband. So, some damage control may be at work here.

In the video above Robyn Brown intervened and got Kody Brown showering at her house. So, it seems as if they want the fans to know that Robyn does care about the relationships Kody has with all his wives.

But perhaps the biggest thing TLC attempts to do is remind the fans that Robyn wishes she wasn’t legally married to Kody Brown. Which she says in one of the older clips. She wants to be on the same level as the other wives.

This Involves Trust

They also released the teaser (below) with some very different takes from Robyn Brown. So, this seems to indicate that things changed drastically from an earlier clip that has Robyn wishing marriage wasn’t involved. And she seemed to support the other women, Now she seems to side with her shared husband.

Robyn wished that they were all equally his legal wives. She shares how she watched her mother get slighted as the second wife in a plural marriage.

She also describes how her mother had no say in important matters regarding her father because she wasn’t his legal wife. This is why Robyn claims to be especially sensitive to Christine’s problem as well as the rest of the wives.

Robyn appears on many of the land deeds. If by chance something happened to this  Kody Brown, it’s Robyn Brown who has the legal say-so of all his affairs. So, the Sister Wives co-wives put a lot of trust in wife number four.

As Sister Wives Season 16 rolls out on Sunday, November 21. Fans of the show can watch and see all the red flags leading up to Christine Brown leaving the man she shared with co-wives for more than 25 years.
