‘Sister Wives’ Season 17 Episode 9 Recap: Selling a House & Saying “So Long” To Sister Wives Who Call You A Liar

I feel like Janelle should be standing in the background of this photo, holding a sign that says, “Take me with you!”

It’s time for another episode of ‘Sister Wives!’ Pull on a pair of buttery soft leggings, put on some breakdancing tunes and let’s get right to it!

We kick this episode off with Christine explaining how they drove for six days to get Ysabel across the country to live with Maddie in North Carolina.

(And by “they,” Christine means she and her daughters, of course. Ysabel’s “father,” Kody, couldn’t be bothered to come along on his daughter’s send-off trip. I mean…if Kody was gone, who would have been there to tend to his “tender age” children with Robyn? Well, sure there’s Robyn…and her three adult children and…THE NANNY…)

Christine says that the trip across country was “absolutely perfect” (probably because they didn’t have to cater to a whining, foot-stomping, frizzy-haired ego-maniac the whole time.)

Ysabel tells us that she’s excited to live with Maddie and her husband Caleb, because it’s nice to see someone who is actually happy in their marriage. The poor girl hasn’t seen many happy faces in Kody’s Polygamy Pile ‘o’ Wives in a long time. 

“My wives are HAPPY! Just look at their faces! Do these look like unhappy ladies to you!?”

“I think it’s hard for a kid to not see a functional relationship between their parents,” Ysabel tells us, adding that it will be good for Truely to see her sisters’ healthy marriages in Utah. She adds that she’s excited to watch how well a husband and wife team can function, since she hasn’t seen that in a long time.

“For the last time WE ARE HAPPY! Damnit!!!!”

They arrive in North Carolina and Christine enjoys seeing Maddie and her kids while getting Ysabel settled into her new life. Janelle’s son Hunter has even come down from Baltimore, where he’s living, to join in on the festivities. (Still not present? Kody, who is probably busy sharpening Robyn’s eyebrow pencils back in Flagstaff.)

Ysabel tells us she’s happy to peace out of PolygTown, because the last year at Casa de Christine was really hard, due to Christine being upset over Kody’s rejection and whatnot. She’s happy to cut the co-dependency strings a little.

Christine, meanwhile, is worried because she has to tell The Curled One, his wife and…the others…that she is moving next week. She knows they’ll be shocked (and that Kody’s forehead vein will be positively exploding) when she gives them the news.

“But my guess is that Robyn will be aggressively break-dancing in the corner as Kody pulls out what’s left of his hair.”

Meanwhile, Meri is hanging out at her Utah inn with her best friend Jen. Meri tells us she much prefers to hang out with people she’s not legally spiritually bound to. She says that the reason for this is “my family is kind of weird right now.”

Well if that ain’t the understatement of the century…

We see old clips of the Browns playing tug-of-war (and one clip of Christine legit body-slamming Meri and just brutalizing her in front of the kids…but in a “playful” way).

Um…why don’t I remember Christine going all “Hulk Hogan” on Meri’s ass? Can we see more of these clips?

Meri says that, basically, no one in her family is nice to her anymore and no one wants to play tug-of-war or tackle her so she has to resort to hanging with rando “Boss Babes” from her Lularoe empire.

Meri says that her BFF Jen has been there for her through it all— when Robyn overthrew Meri as Queen Wife; when Meri got caught trying to diddle some other “dude” during the Great Catfishing Caper; and even when Kody decided to stop giving Meri the polygamy pickle tickle every four days and banished her to her bell tower. 

Meri says she appreciates that Jen jumped on a plane to be there for her when Meri’s mom died…unlike Meri’s “family” who couldn’t even be bothered to ride with her to go see her dying mother. 

The fact that someone actually cared enough to be kind to Meri is a foreign concept to poor Mer. 

“I mean, Kody only bothers with me when he comes over to borrow my hair wax.”

What follows is a giggly Instagram chat session that makes no sense. She talks about how you can’t be BFFs with your sister wives…or something. It’s refreshing to see an upbeat Meri for once. She’s been a sad sack of leggings and fake leather jackets for so long that I forgot she could actually smile. 

Robyn pipes in to tell us that, typically, relationships among sister wives are complicated. Who could have guessed it would be hard to be besties with the ladies boning your husband?

Back in Flagstaff, Christine tells us she has an offer on her house, and she needs to tell the sister wives. Christine says she wants to tell them in-person (probably so she can see Robyn’s face when she hears that Christine is getting the hell out of Flagstaff and Robyn’s web of toxicity.)

Christine reminds us that she sold her bedroom furniture a month ago. She says lying on the bed where she used to spend three minutes a week boning Kody was too hard for her. 

“I did warn the buyers that the grease stain where Kody’s hair used to lay probably won’t come out of the mattress…”

Christine says that Kody is obviously not too worried about seeing his children, as he hasn’t seen Truely for more than two weeks, did not help move Gwendlyn out and did not go on the trip to send off Ysabel. 

Kody tells us that he doesn’t want to go over to Christine’s house (because he got kicked out and IT’S NO FAIR). Truely can’t come stay with him and his wife Robyn because the home’s bedrooms are full of kids grown ass adults still living at home. 

“Despite what that darn Christine says, I DO want to see little Trudy. I love Trudy…she’s the little blond one right?”

Besides, if Kody goes to see Trudy Truely, that means he has to be around Christine. There’s one thing we know about Kody Brown: he’s gonna put his own selfish feelings in front of the needs of his kids.

I mean…Kody’s gonna Kody…

Next, Real Estate Agent Terry (who looks like she should be named Laverne and working in greasy spoon diner) comes over to Christine’s house to inform her that her home is now under contract to be sold. 

“You want gravy on that pot roast platter, honey? Anything to warsh it down with?”

Christine is thrilled to find out that her Escape From PolygTown is about to happen. 

Christine is nervous that Kody and his wife…and Janelle and Meri…are gonna hate her for speeding up the move-out process.

The next day, Kody and the sister wives drag themselves over to Christine’s house, which now has a big “FOR SALE” sign in front of it. Christine’s sitting on the porch (COVID, you know…) waiting for The Big K and his troupe of miserable maids to come in and yell at her. 

A photo illustration of how Christine basically spent her whole marriage to Kody…

Christine acknowledges that she’s kind of pulling the rug out from under the group by announcing that she’s outta there next week. 

Janelle tells us that she suspects Christine has sold her home. Robyn, however, tells us that she’s “rilly” stressed out and has no clue what Christine could be telling them. 

“Rilly?” No clue, Robyn? That giant “FOR SALE” sign swinging in the breeze didn’t give you any kind of hint?

Meri tells us that she’s still angry, hurt and betrayed that Christine has chosen to not accept Kody’s banishment of her to the bell tower, as she did. 

“I’m hurt that she doesn’t see value enough in our family,” Meri tells us.

“It’s not like we don’t get to come down from the bell towers! Kody and Robyn call us down for at least two holidays a year OR when they want to yell about Coyote Pass! It’s a great life!”

Kody is sitting there pouting like a toddler who was just told he couldn’t have any more cookies. He tells us he’s angry about basically everything: Christine leaving “the family” (who treated her like a leper for the last year or more); Christine moving and selling the house; and that Christine dared to touch his Lock ‘n’ Roll hair curlers without his permission and threw them into boxes in the garage.

Kody sits there with steam coming out of his ears (and a fashionable Bluetooth earbud) as Christine reveals that her home is under contract.

“It’s no fair. No fair at all. No.No.No.”

Janelle is excited for Christine and says “Yay!” when she hears that the house is almost sold. This, of course, pisses Kody off because Janelle shouldn’t be happy about Christine leaving this miserable existence whatsoever.

“Why is Janelle saying ‘yay?’ Kody growls in a confessional. “I don’t get her thinking!” 

“I guess I’m just supposed to sit there and throw dynamite sticks at Christine? Isn’t there a landmine you can go sit on, Kody?”

Christine says that she was able to find a home in Utah to move into. (Honestly, if it means putting hundreds of miles between her and the Top Ramen Tyrant, I think Christine would have moved into a dumpster behind a Utah grocery store. I know I would!)

She also tells them that she’s moving next week.

Robyn is just sitting there, all hunched over, and you can tell she’s pissed that her master plan to get Christine to stay (which was, apparently, treating her like crap for the past month and crying when the cameras were turned on) has failed. 

Kody, meanwhile, is just doing his best to not punch a hole into Christine’s wall. (We all know he’d try and fail, anyway…)

He tells us that he refuses to “profess my undying love” to Christine in a last-ditch attempt to get her to stay because, honestly, he doesn’t even like her right now.

“I mean, I told her she looked nice once back in, like, 1999. What more did she want?!”

Speaking of people Kody doesn’t like, Meri pipes in to tell us that she has nothing to say to Christine.

“What should I say, ‘Congratulations, you’re leaving the family?'” Meri says bitterly.

Umm…actually, yeah, that’s exactly what you should say to someone who is leaving an unhealthy, unhappy situation in search of a better life, Meri. 

Meri goes on to tell us that she’s not jealous of Christine getting out of KodyVille, because she can totally leave whenever she wants to but she chooses not to, in hopes that someday Kody will bless her again with his sweet, sweet lovin’. 

She says she’s strong because she’s sticking around, hoping one day Kody will be willing to “work on our relationship.”

“I hope you have a good vibrator, Mer!”

Meri insists she’s not pining away for Kody to come back to her, and that she’s content to just sit and let her loins get frostier than Coyote Pass in the winter.

Kody tells the group he was surprised when Truely told him that he and Christine were already divorced.

“That was a little bit of news to me,” Kody says.

Kody tells us that he and Christine never signed a paper or went to their church leaders and told them they wanted a divorce. (This is the same church that Christine is no longer a part of, by the way.)

Apparently, Kody feels like Christine just skipped through all the rituals of divorcing and got right to the good part: getting rid of Kody. 

“If you want us to walk backwards around a table three times, braid each other’s hair and then do the Hokey Pokey, I’ll do it. Whatever it takes to unload you, bro!”

Robyn puffs her chest out and informs Christine that usually, if two people “in their church” want to get divorced, you have to go to the Baby Jesus or Robyn or Kody (or whoever the hell is in charge of this circus of a religion) and ask for a divorce, and fill out a bunch of forms and “prove that the marriage is broken.”

If I were Christine, I’d march right down to Polyg Headquarters with this photo (and Kody’s visor) and be like, “Would YOU want to be married to THIS?”

Christine, bless her saintly heart, just sits there quietly as Robyn tells her she didn’t play by the rules of the religion (a religion, again, that Christine is no longer part of), and that you can’t just be like “All done!” and wipe your hands of the curly-haired beast you married without a bunch of pomp and circumstance.

Robyn insists that Christine has to go get the approval of these Polyg Higher-Ups, and attend a bunch of their counseling and meetings before she can be divorced. Meanwhile, Kody is nodding his big ol’ head in agreement.

And Christine’s just like… “no.” 

She tells them she ain’t gonna do any of that. By this time next week she’s going to be zooming her way toward Utah, leaving Kody, Robyn, all their nonsense rules, regulations and general misery behind her. 

“I’m gonna say it louder for those of you who refuse to listen: I’m outta here!”

Also: this poor woman has already subjected herself to literally years of counseling with that Nancy chick (who, by the way, was about as helpful as Kody’s crunchy front curls are at hiding his bald spots– not at all).

Christine is DONE y’all!

Then Robyn hits us with the fact that she doesn’t consider Christine officially divorced from Kody until she gets “physical” with another man.

Robyn secretly dreaming of having the opportunity to be “physical” with literally ANY other man…

OK so…if I were Christine, I’d get some guy to come stand out on Robyn’s lawn with me and I’d pretend to dry hump him, all while singing “Let Me Call You Sweetheart.” When Robyn put her scowl face to the window, I’d be like, “Is this official enough for ya, Robby?!” 

(Seriously, can we make this an online show? Watching Christine doing things just to piss off Robyn would be more entertaining than watching Christine cook.)

Anygarbage, Janelle has to explain to people actually using that lump three feet above their butt that Christine isn’t part of their faith anymore.

“The rules don’t apply to her if she’s not in the faith,” Janelle– a logical woman— explains.

Christine says that even Kody isn’t part of that religion anymore. (Did we know this? Does Robyn know this?) 

“Oooh! Please don’t tell Robyn that! Damn it Christine!”

Christine says that her marriage to Kody (which was never legal) doesn’t need a big official legal announcement for it to be over. And, even if Kody feels that it does, Christine ain’t doing it!

Yessss, girl! 

Meri tells us that she and Kody are also in this weird not-legally-wed-but-miserable limbo that Christine and Kody were in. She says that even though Kody has no interest in being with her anymore (or even being around her anymore), she doesn’t consider them divorced.

“Grrr, I’m never gonna unload that one, am I?”

Kody tells us (again) that he doesn’t consider himself married to Meri anymore. 

“If she wanted to move on and marry another, she wouldn’t get an argument with me,” Kody says. “I don’t believe that we can ever be functional. And I don’t believe that I will ever be emotionally safe with her.”

OUCH. I don’t think you need anymore confirmation than that, do you, Mer?

Kody says he’s so mad about Christine leaving because she just sprung it on him, as opposed to his situation with Meri, which has been getting progressively more miserable for years. 

Janelle, trying to be a positive light in all this misery, pipes up to tell everyone, “hey, at least we have this great, cohesive group of kids together.”

Kody tells her that the kids aren’t cohesive and, like the adults they were born to, they don’t all get along. 

He mentions that MariahPaedonAuroraDayton and Brianna don’t “fit in well” with the rest of the family. He says that a couple of Christine’s kids and a couple of Janelle’s kids get along and that’s basically it. 

Janelle’s over Kody’s negativity. She tells us that Kody’s all butt-hurt about the kids not getting along because some of the other kids don’t really like Robyn and her kids. She even suggests that Kody only sees things through Robyn & Co.’s perspectives. And apparently Robyn & Co. like to make it seem like the rest of the family is mean to them.

“The only shunning I saw was when Robyn and Kody shunned my family and Christine’s family during COVID and chased us around with COVID tests!”

Kody tells us that he doesn’t favor Robyn and her kids, it’s just that Robyn and her kids communicate with him, unlike the other wives and kids. (Um, yeah, of course they do. Robyn has those kids locked away in her Mountain Mansion. What else do they have to do? After a while, even talking to Kody sounds like a fun time.) 

Later, Kody tells his wives (and Christine) that he doesn’t know why he’s so angry about all of this. (I know! It’s because Kody’s a narcissist and he’s mad that Christine decided to be done with him and his awfulness, and didn’t give a single flying f**k what he wanted. Oh, and she basically told Robyn to kick rocks, too.)

Christine tells Kody that a bunch of their kids saw how miserable Kody and Christine’s marriage has been for years—even when they were living in Las Vegas.

This seems to strike a nerve with Robyn, who legit calls Christine a liar. Christine seems surprised that Robyn is accusing her of lying about her own marriage and how miserable it was. (Apparently Robyn thinks that because Christine and Kody “played nice” in the Cul-De-Sac of Broken Dreams every once in a while, that means they had a happy marriage?) 

“Ooh, Robyn. You may wanna go watch back literally EVERY season of ‘Sister Wives’ before you go around calling people liars. It’s not a good look, girl.”

Robyn says she remembers there being happy times between Christine and Kody in Vegas. And she remembers there being good conversations. Robyn says that clearly her memory of a chuckle or two negates Christine’s entire time actually living in the marriage.

(Honestly, Robyn’s lucky Christine didn’t chuck her Plexus mug right at her head when she called her a liar. No one would blame her.) 

EXACTLY! You don’t…

Christine tells us that, despite what Robyn says, she and Kody struggled a lot in Vegas and their kids all saw it happen.

Robyn blurts out that she’s mad that everyone’s implying that she had the only functioning relationship with Kody, even in Vegas. (Literally no one is saying this, by the way…)

This is the look Christine gave Robyn when she said everyone had a good relationship with Kody in Vegas. I thought the Plexus tumbler was about to go flying!

Janelle’s like, “UM…did you have eyebrow pencil in your eye or what? Anyone with the gift of sight could see that Kody and Christine were miserable for years.” She tells us that Robyn and Kody are trying to invalidate Christine’s account of her own life and gaslight her into thinking she’s the one being crazy. 

Robyn ain’t done, though, no sir. When Christine tells Robyn that she and Kody had a lot of conversations in the last year about the state of their marriage, Robyn interrupts and declares that Kody and Christine “don’t communicate.” 

Just when you thought there couldn’t be a more punchable face than Kody’s…here we are….

Robyn, once again, seems to be calling Christine a liar. In her opinion, Christine and Kody don’t communicate, so therefore they couldn’t have possibly had conversations about their marriage.

Christine’s just like, “kay” and Kody tells us that he’s tired of this “How Stella Got Her Groove Back,” powerful version of Christine, who just tells him what she’s going to do instead of asking him.

This right here is the exact reason Kody is mad about this breakup…

Robyn then tells Christine not to lump every other sister wife’s relationship with Kody in with hers. Christine insists she never said that everyone else was struggling in Vegas. Robyn insists she did.

(Let’s roll the camera back and check….Christine never said that. Robyn was actually the one who said that.)

Janelle is kind of upset that Robyn proclaimed that Janelle and Kody were in “such a good place together in Vegas,” which seemed to be news to both Janelle and Kody. 

Finally Robyn admits that maybe she did say that herself and Christine didn’t. Kody comes in to save his wife and changes the subject, mentioning that Christine leaving him makes them look bad to the public.

“If you want to see you and Robyn look bad, Kody, go ahead and watch this episode back.”

Christine tells us that she tried to make her marriage to The Curled One work for years, and now she wants to focus on being a good mom. And, being a good mom means not staying married to Kody and letting herself and her kids suffer at his hands. 

“I couldn’t with a clear conscious stay married to someone who had favorites and made it very known,” Christine tells us. “Someone who is breaking my kids’ hearts. I need to stand with them instead. And I wanted to do it for them.”

BAM! THERE IT IS. 

That’s all for this episode of ‘Sister Wives!’

  1. OMG! I just want to say that I so completely enjoyed your synopsis and I laughed my ass off the entire time whilst reading it. While your version of the episode was funnier, you hit these people spot on. Your “love”names for Kody gave me a few that I hadn’t thought of. As for Queen of Tears, I think she is angry to lose Christine and her kids because it is a drastic reduction in the number of the Queen’s subjects. I hope Janelle realizes more emotional abuse is headed her way now that Robyn lost one of her whipping subjects. I noticed you didn’t count the sobs coming from #1wife’s chair. Why bother,right? I’m convinced Robbblubber has spent months on end digging her nails into the palms of her hands until tears flow. That explains the screwed mouth, the looking away and then the tears. Wish someone would clue her in. We’ve seen it already. Wonder how wife#4 would feel if Kruddy does indeed find another female he decides to hypnotize into his special brand of hell. BTW – I agree. Christine stood up and decided to seek a real life without K’s approval. But I think he is losing income with her exodus. He doesn’t give a damn about Christine or the kids. To end this epistle, and I apologize for being so verbose, I just completely enjoyed your take on the latest episode. Thank you for every single slam against Kurly brown. He earned every single one.


  2. Sister,you got all that exactly right, Robin is awful she showed her true colors,and the curly one telling Kristen that she treated Robin like dirt I never saw that she seemed nicer to her than most would!sure is strange that most of his children think he prefers Robin and her perfect kids!!


  3. Christine your the BEST!!! I admire your strength in moving forward from this toxic unrealistic family environment. Your make belief ex husband with his favorite wife can continue their miserable life while you move on to bigger and better things that life has to offer. God has brighter plans for you because you are smart enough to know your worth. Hopefully Meri can learn something from you and stop acting like a stray dog trying to get a bone that the hungry dog “Robin won’t let go of. Roof… roof!


  4. I say good for Christine. Meri should leave also the truth is when Meri divorced Kody to marry Robin that was it. So let me tell you that is not God’s teaching. You are all wrong you make the rules to suit yourselves. You use God as a religion to have see with different women. Kody Ned’s to get on his knees and as for forgiveness. You sew what you rep.


  5. You are spot on about this mess of a family! Us you are absolutely hysterical!!! There is no advantage to ANY woman to be in a “marriage” of polygamy! What a joke, I do feel for all the kids—what a fu—-ed up example for them of a so called relationship. Keep it coming girl!


  6. Maybe I’m late to the party, but what in God’s name is the deal with Meri’s hair?! Also, I don’t think the “wives” bone anyone; I think they GET boned. If at all. (Unless they HAVE bones, but thats another program.) Thx for the great narrative. M.E.


    1. Kody, is such a doinker! He is nauseating, to look at. Watching him at that wedding flouncing around like a gigolo. I think he was fishing for a replacement….I’m so happy for Christian. I 🙏 She find true happiness. You had me is stitches a couple times. Sister wives, unite and know your worth. Ditch the doinker!!!


  7. Kody and Robyn deserve each other. The dramatics they throw out is hilarious. I know Christine is lady, but if she would have done a throat punch to both of them would have been amazing! Kody and Robyn are both narcissistic @#$holes. Love the show and I’m so excited for Christine. Maybe Janelle will follow, and if Meri is smart she’ll be gone. Oh wait… that’s right, she’s feeding off their crumbs.


  8. Please fix Robins eyebrows. She is so fake. She got what she wanted and now she’s sorry. At least Christine is honest.


  9. OMG, Ashley, you are hilarious as well as being spot on. I think Meri will wise up after a spell. She feels guilty about the catfish thing and is hoping the curly top one will take her back. NOT. Move on lady.


  10. Omg.this article was the best.loved it.It expresses the whole truth of this clown show in the most comiçal way.The best comedy is always about reality too.well written.omg I laughed till I cried thx for the good laughs.


  11. I Loved reading your recap of Sister WIVES! It was so true, every bit of it. You are absolutely right about Kody & sad sack Robyn. I think she paints those eyebrows in to emphasize her “sadness ” Can’t wait for your next recap


  12. “Cul-De-Sac of Broken Dreams”!! I snorted so hard I choked! Your depiction of the episode is right on the head and hilarious.


  13. Oh my goodness, I was laughing out loud at so many of the things you wrote. This article was so fun and funny and sarcastic and I actually read it twice because I agree with all that you said. Keep up the great work.


  14. I don’t understand why Kody says he loved her when last weeks episode he told her never loved her. He’s a real a**. And who the heck does Robin think she is queen of the castle. Meri is just kidding herself by staying. Excited to see Christine’s new adventures.


  15. I love this! I laughed until l cried. According to Kody, NOTHING is his fault. The only one he doesn’t place blame on is Sobbin Robyn. He “communicates” so well with Sobbin Robyn and her kids because he is with them 24-7.


  16. If you go back and listen to Kody you can find several times where he says the women have all the control and they always have a choice to stay or leave!


  17. I enjoyed and agreed with your views regarding Sister Wives. Kody is a douchebag!
    Meri is so two-faced, it has got to be painful. And Robyn, I’ve tried to understand her. How dare her call Christine a liar. Poor Janelle needs to run for her life.


  18. Ladies; pack your bags and get going!!! There are alot of fish in the sea! Let Kody have Robyn. That’s what he wants anyway. He’s just seems to want to keep you all around for his own ego. So he doesn’t get embarrassed with this sham of multiple unions. Go girls! Have at it!! I’d love to watch you all venture in to new waters!!! It’s a big world out there. Have fun!

    #rollercoastercomestoanend


  19. This whole season has been one of a lot of yays with Christine standing up for herself, you have go to be kidding with Kody denying everything that they have been through. Its frankly getting old that everything has to be about what Kody wants and not with anyone else’s feelings.


  20. Oh how I just fully enjoyed this!!! Take that Kody and Robin!!! Meri, wake up woman!!! He only has 1 wife!!! Janelle run away with your RV, instead of him being like Oh Mama we can be cozy, he’s comparing it to the mountain mansion???? Run


  21. I wish Robyn would just shut up… not everything is about her, she twists everything that’s said by Christine to make her & Kody look like the victims. She feeds his narcissistic personality by doing this. She also strokes his ego that’s why she’s the favourite. Kody consistently needs someone to tell him how wonderful he is.


  22. You are too funny. I laugh so much at your eyebrow pencil comments.
    I am so happy for Christine. She will have a wonderful future without that selfish idiot.
    I just wish Janelle would follow suit. She would be so much happier. Meri continues to look pathetic and stupid.
    Now she’s asking for the astronomical fee 4000/6000 + to stay at her bd and breakfast. For that kind of money, I can have one night of luxury
    In Dudai.🤗


  23. I just love your recap. I was in stitches the entire time. You nailed your version of the curled one to a tee. I honestly don’t know how he can even face his kids. He has absolutely no shame. Meri needs to grow a backbone. Robyn needs to hire someone to do her eyebrows. I mean girl, your on TV. As for Christine and Janelle I wish them all the luck in the world. Kody is just pissed because they dumped him. Keep up the great writing Ashley, you made my day.


  24. Robin and Mary are fricking MORONS, this man is a fricking POS. HE HAS NO IDEA WHATS GOING ON,WITH HIS CHILDREN OR ANY ONE OF THE WIVES,And Mary hanging around waiting for him to come around again! She deserves to be miserable if she’s going to hang around. I don’t watch the show but after reading this I may watch it just for the laugh I’ll get out of watching it.


  25. Christine wants to leave Kody and Sobyn and Kody claim she can not be divorced unless she goes trough paperwork and a lot of counseling with Kody or has sex with a (nother) man.

    Meri nor Kody has filed for divorce, Meri didn’t sleep with another man, yet Kody considers them divorced.
    They are not according to their faith and Meri calls herself still his wife.

    Christine can’t leave Flagstaff while their kids live in Utah. Meri is told to bugger off to Utah.

    They just have triple standards!


    1. You have to laugh at their logic, it’s so twisted. If she isn’t part of that church or religion those rules don’t apply. It’s a control thing with both of them, they are both narcissists who feed & stroke each others egos, because Christine doesn’t comply with this she’s the bad guy.


    2. The hypocrisy of Kody,Meri and Sobyn Robyn gets worse every time they open their mouths. Christine and Janelle sure have to wade through some deep shit whenever one of them opens their mouths


    1. She needs him to finally start building on Kodi pass so she can pay of her mortgage(s) when she sells her part.


  26. Kody is such a hypocrite! It’s ok for him to denounce Meri as his wife but is having a fit bcuz Christine is leaving him. Did he go through the church for permission to end his marriage with Meri? Or did he just take it upon himself to do so?
    Now that Christine is leaving him, he wants to throw in the church. Such double standards. All he cares about is himself. What about Meri? He’s a selfish narcissistic person. Karma is a bitch!


  27. Great article….love the accurate Ad-Libs….Who did not see this coming….his wives are aging out….time for new ones and an updated new series….


  28. This rendition of what happened at the last Sister Wives episode IS SPT ON….that Robyn thinks she’s got it all figured out n she’s mean-spirited & snarky…great article The Ashley….Robyn may be scared she is going to have him all the time n doesn’t want that…lol! Loved it!!! Keep up your interpretations!!!!


  29. Robin showed her true colors in the very beginning. She married Cody even before Christine had given birth . Maybe Im wrong but wouldnt it be Common respect to wait until after Christine had had her baby even Kody should have been more respectful.


    1. Kody and Sobyn got married after Truely was born. She was about 2 months old.

      I’m convinced that Kody and Sobyn were boinking before marriage, though. Those Victoria’s Secret undies weren’t for the ex Mr. Jessop!


  30. Well Christine u have done yourself and your kids a huge favour by leaving that idiot KODY.Now maybe u can find a real man that will love u for u

    LOVE FROM ONE OF YOUR FRIENDS FROM CANADA

  31. Love the article made me laugh and so true. I can’t believe what a self centered jerk Kody is. He even threw his daughter under the bus. I love how Christine took the high road.


  32. Your hilarious thoughts on this scam of Cody to insist all his wives are under his command and he only prefers Robin but won’t admit that. So glad she didn’t give him any money for the house she sold. Jannelle told Cody she gave a huge chunk of money so Robin can live on magic mountain and needs money for her life and trailer. He never admits where the money is.


    1. Janelle needs money now because she has nothing but I am sure Kody & Robyn has it in anoth÷r account, hidden. Both are low life…
      You reap what you sow Kody …


      1. You know i heard recently that Gwen confirmed that Janelle left Kody and as I’m watching this play out I’m almost willing to bet that Kody once fully backed into a corner by Janelle for the $ to pay off the land so she can build her little tiny house she’s was wanting within 6 months of living out there in the RV waiting for it to all be built and as we know now it never happened and she had to end up moving in with her son last winter because she couldn’t handle the winter in that RV and not another word has been said about any 9f it lately. I think she and Christine both ended u0 leaving his sorry a$$! I hope Robyn is stuck with him 24/7… I used to feel bad for Meri but not anymore… she comes off as disingenuous and a huge fool! Nobody buying it… she embarrasses herself weekly now with how desperate she looks. Maybe she needs to call Kody’s bluff? He says he doesn’t care if she leaves, then she should. I think by now she must have a little boy toy hidden somewhere on the side 😉… I am so happy for Christine and I hope Janelle is free of him too. They deserve to be happy and have happy families. Those kids will soon see their mom’s in a way they never saw before and thats when they will all walk away from Kody for good.


  33. I love your reviews! I admire Christine for not losing her cool with Sobyn and Kody! Those two are unbelievable! Idiot Meri waiting for years for Kody and Sobyn running the show! Kody is a hypocrite, he’s upset Christine the relationship without ASKING him, well isn’t that what he did to Meri! I don’t see the attraction to him. Aren’t there other men in their state?


  34. You said it al robyn meri are. Two back stabbers And meri likes looking like a dope he has been telling her for years now to go away .She set women back for years with her hanging on to thishopeless person…..You great Christine be happy


  35. Awesome. Couldn’t have said it better myself. Just can’t understand why the other wives hang around when it’s obvious that Cody isn’t going to “CHEAT” on Robyn with any of them. They should watch the show to see what we see.


  36. Hey Christine,YOU Go Girl!
    I’m happy for you for having the strength to leave that narracistic bastard Kody.He doesn’t care that you are leaving,but he can’t stand the fact that you’re leaving because it damages his reputation.As for Robin she better be glad it wasn’t me she called she called a liar.She thinks she’s so superior to all three of you ladies.But she’s nothing but trash.I have never had a man that I obeyed.


  37. Ashley, you’re soooooo right on! Everyone EXCEPT Robyn & Kody can see. But this “family”, is so mucked up (keeping it clean). Kody’s father marrying whosit’s mother, another one’s brother marrying another of the sister wives…WHO CAN KEEP ALL THIS WEIRDNESS straight??? This is the family Kody is bemoaning falling apart? It’s thisclose to being incest. But maybe Kody’s curlers were in too tightly, as his head is screwed up to anyone viewing. I find it ironic that most of the Covid the “family” got was brought in by Robyn’s niece (the ‘nanny’) & her husband. Kody, were you too busy driving to officiate other’s wedding to give attention to your own? Poor Isobel (I hope I spelled that right), facing a serious, life-threatening surgery, and no father in sight. And Kody/Robyn wonders how the children got the idea Christine’s relationship was in trouble? Maybe when Kody couldn’t be bothered to put his OWN children to bed when Christine was working part time AND mothering sister wive’s kids, and show Isobel support. Kody, SHAME ON YOU!!!


  38. Robyn is such a whiner and Meri is a bee-ach. I’ve always thought I could be friends with Christine and Janelle, but not those other two.


  39. Well said! All of it! I cheer Christine on! Just because Meri is a blooming idiot doesn’t mean Christine has to be. I think Christine did a good job of holding her tongue and not telling Robyn and Jody to kiss her where the sun doesn’t shine. I love this author!


    1. Robyn said they need to rebuild. Doesn’t she realize that that means she won’t be the favorite anymore? I’d love to see her and her kids get booted out of that big house so that the next woman can have it. Take her down a few notches. She thinks she’s so special and important.


  40. Hey Ashley you rock I laughed so hard reading all the nonsense from Cody and Robin and I watched the last show where Cody almost exploded his big curly head I just couldn’t stop laughing I’m glad that Janelle and Christine are friends as are their kids and good for you Christine what a pompous ass this guy is he’s just upset because a woman he was married to or something like that left first and he had no say in it you go Christine..Judy from Canada xx


  41. I haven’t watched this show since like season one, and have no plans to. I do, however, have every intention of reading your recaps because they are blesssss-ed!
