  • Based on what I've seen on TLC's Sister Wives, Janelle and Robyn are arch nemesis. These two ladies not only share a husband but they share very similar origin stories. Both ladies entered the family as divorced women. Both women had to decide what role they were going to fill for the family. Where they differ is the path they chose.
    Janelle, the maker, decided to dedicate her life and finances towards the betterment of the family. Robyn, the taker, decided on the exact opposite path. Robyn's presentation on the show is that of a selfish person who is only concerned with the things she can get from the family.

    Robyn and I are the same age and it’s just shocking to me that any peer of mine is sleeping until noon, has never had a job, and has a nanny to care for her school-aged kids. I don’t know one single person in my life that’s had it like that. The entitlement it takes to live like that is off the charts. Does she think she’s a Rockefeller?!

      Robyn's whole back stop doesn't make sense and is clearly a lie if you look at the facts. She tried to be an actress in the late 90's (she was on CMT & Just Shoot Me) and a lot of people have said she auditioned for Survivor and other reality shows while married to Preston. Christine (who's Preston's cousin) went to college for media and had been doing speaking engagements about polygamy in the surrounding states and churches, finally the Brown's begin talks with TLC about a show, something you know the Brown's church and family knew about. Then Robyn suddenly leaves her husband, takes her 3 children with no job and moves from MT to UT and begins attending a church 5 HOURS away from where she lived, even though, she wasn't working and didn't have an income, no one would do that without a good reason! A reporter from UT who covers polygamy and the churches involved with it, claims it was common knowledge that Robyn left her husband for the sole reason of getting into the Brown family for fame and money, she moved to UT to be close to the Brown's and started showing up at their church, at every church event and at her cousin's home who lived in the Brown's neighborhood until she worked her way into the family. That's why she didn't divorce Preston, he had to file on her because if Kody turned her down she was going to go back to her husband.

      I think he promised her the moon, and she convinced him, as an 'actress', she could make him wealthy beyond his dreams. They would have some subservient wives, (in name only), to help keep them living the high life. ( Robyn was going to whip those women into shape, by 'empath'-ing, and 'counseling', and showing them how to behave with their man.)
      Oh, yes, I think it became a collaborative effort between them, and TLC was right in there pitching for it. Of course, that is all my opinion, but I have seen what can happen when a couple of narcissists get together!

    Robyn has nothing positive to give, unless it's satisfying Kody's "needs" Nothing. Not love, loyalty, friendship, nor generosity. Certainly she has never contributed financially. She is a taker. She came to the family with a mountain of debt and she has never held a job. She hasn't even raised her own children.. Janelle is the opposite. She gave everything because she's a giver. And she is generous, kind, loyal and loving. I think Kody is regretting driving his first three wives away, though he won't admit it. And now he is stuck with Robyn and her kids. Three of Robyn's kids are adults who show no signs of getting jobs or leaving the nest. Without TLC, this arrangement isn't sustainable.

      Agree I personally don't view Robyn as contributing but sure Kody gets a young wife I guess? I don't have an issue with Robyn wanting the best for her children, many parents would do the same - but how can she spew crap about "the family culture"? It's like when Kody interacts (or doesn't interact) with the other wives the blinders go on. Christine even asks Kody what did I do so that you wouldn't help me tuck the children in and I don't think even he knows. How is it "the family culture" if you need to hire people or farm out parenting to other kids?

    Let’s remember that Robyn’s Mother was actually a side piece, not a polygamist family. Robyn was in a monogamous 1st marriage.
    It may not have started out that Robyn had sites on bumping Meri but when she saw that Kody and Meri didn’t have the tight knit marriage of when Robyn arrived. I believe thats when her wheels turned. Security for her kids thru adoption and securing her place as legal wife and top it off with two more babies.
    Robyn saw her chance financially as legal wife. Robyn wanted to be an actress, sooooo enter Sister Wives. She got her share if the money from the show, she didn’t work and Kody worked his wickedness to have her financially set. Now legal wife 1/2 of all kody’s assets besides what he put in her name alone.
    FOLLOW THE MONEY and you’ll see where Robyn rates AND it all fell into her hands because Kody let it happen, hide facts and just plain out gave it to her!

He's an impulsive child who is downright dangerous because he has no idea what he doesn't know. I also have no idea how she isn't ABSOLUTELY FURIOUS all of the time at how this has all unfolded.

No way in hell of I was a bonus mom (step mother/sister wife) would I ever allow Kody to dog out his other children as I put mine 1st every time. Children are innocent and even when I am involved. They all get time, love, attention, affection. One isn't more important than the others, and that's how it should be. I hated hearing Robyn say that her little kids can't go more than 2 days without seeing Kody, yet all his other children had to go weeks without seeing their dad.

    Janelle (fans think) paid off Coyote Pass earlier this week on the condition that Robyn's name be taken off the land, it's just Kody & Janelle on the land now. Please look into this whole Coyote Pass pay off thing, James! You have so much financial and business knowledge that you can probably figure it out. Robyn's excuse definitely makes ZERO sense. If she didn't want to "live with a married man" not only would she NOT have been ok with living with him on the weekends when he stayed at her house BUT she could have stayed at a temporary apartment or cheap hotel until after they were married, then move into the Lehigh house after the wedding! That would be the only way her excuse would prove to be true. Every single thing Robyn does is FOR Robyn, she always tries to spin it in a "selfless" way but it's never selfless, she ALWAYS benefits from it in some way. Kody absolutely threw away diamond wives for a rock wife, she serves no purpose to the Brown family and contributes nothing positive to anyone in the family, she can't even care for her own children without help.

    I recently found out that Robyn’s name isn’t on the property anymore and it’s just Janelle’s name with Kody on the property on the parts that Kody and Robyn’s name were on. It’s set up where it’s a separate entity and in Arizona if something happens to Kody Robyn gets nothing on the property due to the clause of it being a separate entity like a business. It means by default, the property goes to Janelle and whatever Meri owns goes to her. I think Robyn’s name was taken off the property because they owed Janelle and they couldn’t pay her. Without a Crystal Ball reported on it about two days ago when they paid off what they owed.

    Let’s not forget that Kody and Janelle “courted” for 2 weeks before these two thought it was a good idea to get married on Meris birthday and Kodys mother had to intervene. And Janelle wondered why Meri didn’t roll out the welcome wagon. Christine and Meri also worked not just Janelle, btw. As for Robyn, I am convinced her and Kody met way before they official met, made a plan to scam the other wives into financing their closet-monogamy while the other women operated under the assumption they had to incorporate a 4th wife (that also the reason why tlc green lot the previously rejected show). Meri might “think” she found Robyn but I’m convinced she was placed into Robyn’s way to get love bombed to get Robyn into the family and for Kody to get the tv show.

To find out later on s17- that she had Mykelti as her Nanny when she was 12 or 13 yrs old and Not Christine. Robyn refused to live in the big house (with Janelle) when she moved to Lehi, but had to get her own house down the street. The Manipulation slwas early on, and most did miss it as Robyn was sweet and seemed to be innocent. OH that was a lie.... we all fell for it, I know I did. After rewatching Season 1 (during season 2 airing on TV- my kids played sports, so most Sundays we were out all day and I missed a few episodes) I took a good look at Robyn's character and was like hell naw... I don't like her or Kody!!
      It really showed how bad Robyn was (to me) when they moved to Vegas. She had notes on the fridge telling the kids not to eat certain things, yet was all in the camera's claiming she loved it when the teens come over and go thru her cupboards to eat up everything. The one scene when it was her night with Kody, and Paedon & Gwendolyn were over playing with Dayton & the girls, Robyn had Kody tell the kids it was dinner time and they had to leave. As a mother, I was puzzled and irritated seeing that. Yes, I understand it was Robyn's night with their dad, but damn, those are Kody's kids too. You couldn't pull up 2 more chairs and plates so those 2 could eat dinner with their dad and siblings?? Or the fact that Kody didn't even walk the 2 down the street to Christine's house. That sealed it for me liking Robyn.

    Thinking about finances and planning looks different to a kid than it does to an adult for valid reasons. I can remember the adults in my family and other friends' families discussing money concerns. As a teenager there's a vague concept - that the adults have concerns and as a teenager I don't (I had an after school job but not a mortgage!) As an adult, I have to do my own budget and pay for my own expenses so I think about it much more than a kid would. Robyn comes across as that teenager - like the other wives can deal with the finances and I'll just enjoy the fruits. That's a childlike mentality about reality. Maybe she felt God would provide her with multiple income streams. And if she were living economically and/or frugally, you can add value to your household budget by not spending money on precious moments figurines or paying off victoria's secret pyjamas 🙄 Maybe I'm being unfair - I get that some people are not math oriented? And maybe Robyn doesn't want to come across as the old fashioned downtrodden fourth polygamist wife? Even though Janelle is being transparent to TLC and the viewers, I think she's seen some stuff on the family financials and tax returns that she might not want to disclose for one reason or another. Slightly stunned that Mykelti discussed growing up in poverty...it's her truth but Kody probably doesn't want to revisit that and Robyn simply wasn't there when they were struggling.

And I’m sorry, they couldn’t have had a 401K…that’s just plain ridiculous. They were so poor that most of them and their kids didn’t even have health insurance…no way they could have spared the money to put in a 401K. Maddie had recently had an emergency appendectomy that had to be paid in cash (which they didn’t have, so that was another BIG bill to pay off). All of them had been through bankruptcy and used food stamps. Christine JUST had her bankruptcy before the show started.

    The only reason Robyn doesn’t want the family to break up is because she doesn’t want the money train to stop. She loves everyone else working and contributing to her lifestyle while she does nothing. That’s what she’s really crying over.

    I lost my dad three years ago to covid so he’s not around anymore to give me advice. I’m out here in the dating world trying to make sense of it and make smart choices he’d be proud of. I just wanna thank you for you videos because you give this really fatherly advice and you say thing I know he’d say to me if he was here. So I just wanna say thank you. Because it’s always good to give thanks.

    Love your common sense way of laying it all out, as intertwined and convoluted as it is, you present it in an easy to understand way! Thanks James, keep up the good work!

    "We waited so long, 10 months." WTF?! They're so damn selfish. Both of them, right from day 1. Poor Janelle.

    That is interesting because Kody said he courted Robyn for 10 months! There was a rumor that they were having an affair and made up the Meri finding Robyn.

    In the book Janelle pretty much said she didn't plan to have a close friendship with Robyn. What do you think is going on with Robyn being taking off the property at coyote pass and Janelle being added on?

    I was watching your video when she wouldn't move in the house till they were married but I bet she didn't because he was spending the night at her house and they were already having fun and they couldn't have FUN if she moved with the family
