Sister Wives: Kody’s “Apology Tour” Sets The Stage For New Reflections & Storylines

The patriarch of the family, Kody, is often seen wondering about the past. In the past few weeks, this desire of his has gotten stronger. He has been quoted many times, hoping to apologize to former sister wives, which included Janelle, Meri, and Christine. He even dubbed this process an “apology tour.” In recent episodes, Kody told Robyn that he wanted to fix old wounds by meeting each ex-wife individually. He admitted that these apologies were not about defending himself but about acknowledging actions he now regrets.

Kody also said he wasn’t sure how long the process would take, but believed it was necessary for his conscience. Following the heavy promotion of this event, fans have reacted with mixed opinions. Some questioned the sincerity of his intentions, while even Robyn appeared unsure and emotional about what the meetings could bring. She openly wondered whether healing was possible or if one of the former wives might rejoin their household.

Sister Wives: Janelle Brown Shares How Her Mother Married Kody’s Father

Janelle shared an intimate moment with her friends when she revisited the story of how her mother unexpectedly married Kody Brown’s father, Winn Brown. Janelle explained that she discovered polygamy in high school and believed it to be her spiritual path. When she began spending time with Kody and his family, she felt some kind of intrigue and got inspired by it. Her mother, however, didn’t feel the same way. Janelle recalled her mother strongly protesting the idea.

She remembered her saying, “No daughter of mine is gonna marry into some crazy cult.” Her mother was determined to pull Janelle away from the lifestyle. But everything changed once she met Kody’s father. According to Janelle, the two started bonding, and within months, they made their own commitment. In fact, Winn and her mother married three months before Janelle and Kody did. Janelle admitted the situation felt strange at first, especially knowing their marriages would make things complicated for the whole family.

Still, she accepted it as part of their dynamic, which was evolving as time went by. This was difficult for her as many family members couldn’t understand her choices. As of now, Janelle and Kody have been separated since 2022. Janelle joined Christine and Meri, who also stepped away from Kody and polygamy. Kody is now in a monogamous relationship with Robyn, after the rest of the sister wives left him one after another. For the latest Sister Wives tea, stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers.
