Polygamy's Hidden Struggles: Kody Brown's Honest Confession

Kody Brown, known for his unconventional family setup, recently opened up about the tough parts of living as a polygamist. He admitted that having four wives and 18 kids came with big challenges. Kody said he wouldn't marry again after going through three divorces. He grew up in a community where polygamy was normal, as his dad also had three wives. Kody's journey with polygamy started with his first three wives: Meri, Janelle, and Christine. Later, he married Robyn, who he legally wed to adopt her three kids from a previous marriage. Kody and Robyn also have two kids together. However, his first three marriages didn't last. Christine left in 2021, followed by Janelle in 2022, and Meri in 2023. The divorces caused tension in the family, with some kids cutting off communication. Kody admitted this was disappointing but took responsibility for his part in it. Despite the family drama, Robyn supported Kody when he joined the competition show Special Forces. She knew he was determined to take on the challenge. Kody saw the show as a chance to get in shape and find a new purpose. He enjoyed the physical and mental challenge, calling it almost spiritual. On the show, Kody had deep talks with his fellow contestants about his beliefs and upbringing. These conversations helped them understand each other better, even if they didn't always see eye to eye. Kody's story shows that polygamy isn't all sunshine and rainbows. It comes with real struggles, especially when it affects family relationships. His honesty gives a rare look into the complexities of this lifestyle.
