Now, before I get all the Sister Wives fans coming after me and the article, let’s set the record straight. I don’t think Kody Brown will ever win the Husband of the Year award. But I am starting to wonder if he is getting just a bit too much hate. As the saying goes, it takes two to tango. So, I can’t imagine the demise of three relationships being all Kody’s fault. As we know, Meri Brown cheated, and Christine Brown had a jealous streak. While Janelle Brown just fell out of love. So, it doesn’t seem fair that Kody keeps getting walloped by his former wives in the press. But that is just my opinion.
Christine Brown and Janelle Brown are on a heated press tour
The shade is flying out of Christine and Janelle’s mouths after the start of Season 19 of Sister Wives. The former wives of the polygamous patriarch aren’t holding back their true feelings regarding their disdain for Kody. And let me tell you, the hate shines through during each interview. Both women stopped by the Radio Andy podcast to promote the show but went into more detail than expected about their personal lives. As the interview ended, the women were asked to describe Kody in just three words. And the reviews from his former spouses were not nice. Christine piped right up, joking, “Just three?”
The mother of six then bluntly answered, “Deadbeat dad. Sorry, that’s two, but that can be two. Deadbeat dad and … oblivious.” Janelle, who has always been kinder to Kody, out of all of his wives, took a softer approach. She shared that her word choice was “charismatic.” Janelle defended her choice, adding, “Come on… when he walks into the room, he’s very charismatic.” However, Christine’s anger with her ex was still too fresh to agree. But Janelle revealed she was “over it.”
Christine Brown is suing Kody Brown for custody of their child
But Janelle didn’t only have sweet things to say about Kody. As viewers saw during Season 18, she found herself in a major fight with the patriarch, which ended in a door slam and her telling him to “f*ck off.” During her interview, Janelle added, “I do think he’s selfish. I do. And I do think oblivious is probably good. Like, he seems to be sort of like, I don’t know, like the reality is bewildering to him.”
The “We Hate Kody Brown Club” has been ongoing for a few years. And I’m sure Kody is less than impressed. It didn’t help his confidence when Christine slapped him with a lawsuit last month. Kody’s second wife is asking for child support and full custody of their 14-year-old daughter, Truely Brown. Christine filed the paperwork on September 16 and also asked for the court to establish the paternity of Truely since Kody was never named on the birth certificate. On top of that, Christine also asked for a domestic relations injunction that would stop both her and Kody from harassment, domestic violence, canceling or modifying services, and taking the children for nonroutine travel.
Should Kody Brown be cut some slack?
I know this is a touchy subject, but the man has been through the wringer. If he isn’t being yelled at on the show, he is being torn apart in the press. Sister Wives viewers know that Kody is no saint. In fact, he is quite the sinner, especially when it comes to ditching his children. As a bitter man, he cries and throws tantrums, but is this just Kody trying to process his feelings? Yes, to an extent, I would argue that it is. But recently, I have found myself sympathizing with the polygamist, especially as his wives tear him apart.
Since the day Christine left, she has not stopped throwing little digs at her former husband. Even though she is now remarried and claiming to live a very happy life, she can’t help herself from bashing Kody. There has been more than one time that Christine and her husband, David Woolley, have posted on IG about him. First, the “queen” comment poked at Kody’s “princess ” comment. And then there was the nacho photo, which I admit was pretty clever. But at what point is it just too much hate? Won’t anyone think of the patriarch (insert high pitch church lady voice here)?
