For years, Kody had managed to maintain a polygamous lifestyle, but lost three of his four wives in the space of two years, thereby demoting him to monogamy. If that was all, maybe Kody wouldn’t be as jittery as he is right now. Perhaps his panic started when Roby said that she feels like the fool that got left behind.
Sister Wives Spoilers – Kody Brown Admits To Losing Direction In His Life
Kody is not handling the loss of three of his four wives with grace. In fact, he’s become quite difficult to live with.
“Kody’s been a very angry, upset, very lost person the last few years, and I have to recognize it for what it is,” Robyn says in a confessional, before attempting to put meaning behind his actions by adding, “It’s just him in a painful place, and him in a place of fear that I will leave him too.”
Kody also tries to explain the reason for his recent state of mind in his own confessional, saying, “There’s a struggle that I’ve had because I had this big picture that got shattered.”
Not only has the number of the patriarch’s wives gone down, the number of children who still want to have a relationship with him has gone considerably down. At 55, Kody is in full mid-life crisis mode and it’s showing.
In the show, we saw several of his kids reveal that they’d initially tried to let many of the patriarch’s mistreatments pass so as to keep having a relationship with him. However, they had to finally draw a line somewhere on how much mistreatment and neglect they can take.
Garrison Brown, who committed suicide earlier this year, had not been on speaking terms with his father prior to his death. While Kody does suggest he feels pain about his estrangement from his children, he hasn’t really made any responsible moves to try and win their trust back.
Despite all this, Kody’s big fear seems to revolve around the concept of being wifeless. What do you think about it? Do you think Robyn could leave him? Do you think she should?
