When Sister Wives aired its first episode in 2010, the world was stunned by the unconventional family of Kody Brown and his four wives. Now, nearly 15 years and 19 seasons later, that once-united polygamous household has completely unraveled.
Kody Brown — once the charismatic centerpiece of TLC’s hit show — is no longer the man surrounded by four devoted wives. In a whirlwind of heartbreak and soul-searching, three of his wives have left him… and one has already remarried.
Let’s break down where they are now:
🧍♂️ Kody Brown
After years of trying to maintain his plural marriage, Kody finally admitted what fans had seen coming:
“I feel like I got slapped by polygamy,” he confessed in a candid interview.
The stress, jealousy, and emotional fallout from trying to balance four marriages ultimately caught up with him. His perspective on plural marriage? Shockingly different now.
“I don’t think it works for most people,” he admitted. “Maybe not even for me.”
👩🦰 Christine Brown — The First to Leave
In 2021, Christine shocked the public by announcing her decision to leave Kody.
“I was tired of pretending everything was okay,” she said.
She has since moved to Utah and is thriving — launching her own wellness brand and even remarrying a man outside the polygamous faith. Her new relationship is monogamous, and fans have celebrated her “glow-up” online.
👩 Janelle Brown — Seeking Independence
Janelle followed Christine out the door not long after. While she hasn’t remarried, she’s embraced independence.
“I finally feel like I can breathe,” she shared in a recent episode.
She’s focused on fitness, her kids, and building her own legacy — away from Kody’s influence.
👩🦱 Meri Brown — The Emotional Goodbye
Meri held on longer than the others, but ultimately admitted that she and Kody had been “spiritually divorced” for years.
She now runs a successful business and spends most of her time traveling, writing, and rediscovering herself. Fans have noted that she seems happier than ever.
👩🦳 Robyn Brown — The Last Wife Standing
Robyn is the only wife still with Kody. But even she has admitted that life in a fractured polygamous marriage hasn’t been easy.
She once believed in the dream of “one big family.” Now, she’s left picking up the pieces of what once was a household of unity.
🧨 Final Thoughts
What began as a bold experiment in plural love has become a lesson in personal growth, heartache, and transformation.
The show may still be airing, but the original vision of Sister Wives is long gone — and one wife walking into a brand new marriage proves it’s never too late to start over.
