Sister Wives star Kody Brown will have all eyes on him during Season 19. In light of estranged relationships with his children, the dissolution of three of his four marriages, and the death of his son Garrison. The Brown family patriarch will never be more scrutinized than this season. However, Kody’s historically played the blame game among his family members. Will that happen again?
‘Sister Wives’ Season 19 may frame Kody Brown differently
All eyes will be on Kody Brown as Season 19 of Sister Wives commences. How the episodes are framed is up to production. But Kody’s behavior will undoubtedly take center stage as scenes filmed before and after Garrison Brown’s death could be the season’s cornerstone.
As Season 18 ended, Kody was painted as the true villain of the TLC series. In a telling episode titled “Battle Lines are Drawn,” Kody, Christine, and Janelle’s children discussed their feelings about how Kody left them behind for Robyn Brown and her children.
Gwendlyn Brown bluntly said Kody preferred spending time with Robyn and her children. Garrison shared, “You know what, Robyn? Have him. We’re all grown adults who no longer need a father figure.”
Kody responded to his children’s comments. “All those things they say about me are reciprocated. I don’t want to talk to them.”
However, there is a good chance production may try and build a redemption arc for Kody this season. TLC can’t, in good conscience, continue to paint Kody as the most vilified human on reality television in light of his son’s passing.
