Gabriel was Kody's youngest son for about 10 years before Solomon was born. I think he was Kody's golden boy when he was small, then was discarded when Solomon came along and Kody had his new/last son with his favorite wife. Gabriel has been neglected, rejected and ignored for the last decade+. The other boys always had another little brother come along pretty quickly behind them, so they didn't have as much time to be the prized son like Gabe did. I think that is why it is effecting him more deeply than some of the other sons. He is totally within his rights to feel how he is feeling. He seems like a great young man that Kody is really missing out on(like most of his other siblings). Kody=tool, Gabe=amazing.
It was straight up weird. I quarantined when I had it and I love my kids but I didn't "sob" because I didn't see them. I would talk to them thru a door or they would call me. It wasn't some devastating event. There's under the same dang roof. It was cringy.
I am a retired nurse, when Kody said that he was going to admit himself to the hospital, I was floored! That's not how it works. Robin never was admitted to a room at the hospital. It appears she was just in ER. She wasn't even on oxygen!
I am an ICU RN and have worked with COVID patients since the beginning. She could still talk even with being short of breath. Also she wasn’t on any oxygen. Her head of bed wasn’t up at a 90 degree level. She didn’t even talk about the COVID protocol that she would have gone through. Not to mention the other symptoms that she would be experiencing. Also, with K saying that you go to the hospital you die. I guess he forgot that some of his kids and Grandchildren have been born in the hospital. Not to mention I remember when Truely had to go into the hospital when she was very sick and her kidneys were shutting down & she survived thanks to the hospital. Do you think they have had the vaccines for COVID? If you are at a risk for COVID then get the VACCINES!! Don’t risk losing your family for this.
I am also an Rn and neither Kody or Robyn were I'll enough to actually be admitted to the hospital!!! Certain criteria has to be met before a person is admitted .
2 of my kids worked on ambulances during the worst times. Robyn was not wasting nor was she in any danger of death. She was exactly the type that clogged up hospitals and wasted resources.
I am a nurse and was hospitalized twice for days in Jan 2020. IF Robyn had been truly in respiratory distress she sure as back would NOT have a mask on and be filming herself!!! Freak
This is exactly right, she didn't even have oxygen! She was fine, sick but fine and Kody Id be hell bent to even think he had it, that man looked fit as a fiddle.
She is so dramatic...it was just a strong cold for her and she played it up. She could have waited to see her GP vs clogging up the ER. And she is so doom and gloom why is she scaring those kids like that?
I was wondering what insurance she has. I wonder if they have access to screen actors guild insurance. Otherwise aren’t these ppl chronically uninsured.
I found it hysterical how Kody, the drama queen, was complaining that he had Co-Vid and then shows everyone his temperature was exactly ONE DEGREE ABOVE NORMAL! 🤣
Kody telling janelle that his kids can’t see her and she can’t go to them until they call him and Robyn and make amends? He made choices and those choices have consequences. Every mom in America hates him. COVID literally more important than Gabe. Literally.
My daughters family had covid. I personally had many risk factors for severe covid. However something happened health wise with one of my grandchildren so the parents had to ago the hospital with that child for a couple of days, because once in they could not leave as they both had covid. I went to look after my other granddaughter knowing I would get Covid. I went anyway because your kids and grandkids are EVERYTHING. Anyway I did get covid but I survived
Kody is the lowest of the low!! Shame on him for treating people the way he does. He is going to end up financially broke, with none of his children wanting anything to do with him , and properly alone since Robyn will leave him when he can no longer provide her with all she wants and has to go to work herself!!! She simply wants someone to take care of her and all her needs and support her without lifting a finger to contribute!!!! She is fooling no one,!!
@@pbpb-he6gx EXACTLY!!!! My husband got Covid from work and asked if he should quarantine. We have no kids of our own. I told him absolutely not. I would give my life for him in an instant. I took care of him and he took care of me the following week. We both had co-morbidities and I did NOT care.
Janelle repeatedly saying your my lover .. was aimed at Robyn, because she thinks it’s just her and that will make her crazier than she is already!!! 😂😂
Kody was looking confused as h*ll when she said that! 🤣🤣🤣 Talking all romantic. But part of me thinks she was trying to set a honey trap. Get him back in bed and get her dang land! 😝🤣
I was thinking the same thing earlier today! Would love to see that!😂 I commented earlier also, Kody thinks himself a mob boss, but he’s really a schoolyard bully, in need of an ass kicking. John’s just the guy to do it!👊🏼
My heart breaks for Gabe. Gabe had covid in January 2021. Kody called him on October 11, 2021 because he wanted to learn more about covid for Robyn and Robyn's kids. Kody calls to take. He had not spoken to Gabe in months. Kody did not call back to wish him a happy birthday until someone told Kody to do so.
@@2legit64 yes!! It's so sad! I kept thinking of Gabe probably getting happy / excited when he saw Kody's number pop up and then how disappointed he must have been after knowing Kody didn't call to tell him happy birthday & only called for something about himself!
That tore my heart out to see Gabe break down and cry. Kody is losing his whole family and I believe Robyn may go in the end if she’s left with him alone. I really believe she only married him Meri May keep hanging on to no avail. She should’ve left him long ago. She only married him for support. The others leave she’ll lose her mansion.
I always get the feeling that Robyn says she 'loves' the boys and Kody's other children because that's what 'good Sister Wives' are supposed to say. Every time she is contacted by one of them, she complains to Kody about being verbally abused by them. Then Kody berates the mother of that child and drama spirals. With the exception of Truely, all of the other kids are ADULTS. Yes, Savannah turns 18 this week. Past time for Robyn to get comfortable with uncomfortable conversations with her step-children. Every time she includes Kody she makes the chasm between Kody and his other kids wider. Note: Several of Kody's kids are no longer in contact with him. Gabriel is one of them. Crushing.
Exactly... if you're their mother too, Robyn, why aren't you up for the uncomfortable conversations? I have bonus sons and they talk to me INSTEAD of their mom a lot.
I wanted to punch him on Gabe's behalf. I honestly think that's why Kody is so adversarial with Gabe and Garrison because he treats their mom like crap and they are defending her. He manhood is threatened by the fact that his sons are stronger and more protective than he is towards Janelle.
If I had an address to send that kid a card I would send him one every single stinking year. I'm not a mom and I wanted to hug the stuffing out of him and tell him he's a good guy and it's going to be all right.
Ysabel didn’t have Kody noticing her pain all those years, pain doing the exercises to save him money., there for hours during the surgery, there for after the surgery recovering, yet he is hours in truck which Robyn being checked in the ER? And weeks later can’t drive to Janelle’s for trick or treat. So much for no more social distancing.
The whole covid thing really triggered me. I had covid for 4 weeks and no way would I have been able to film me. They insulted the many people who really suffered due to covid. My sister was hospitalized and could not breath without assistance sadly she past away just 2 weeks after being admitted. I am not questioning Robyn not feeling well due to covid but it was not bad enough to waste 6 hours at the hospital with just your regular mask, no oxygen. The Gabe scene made it worse and my heart broke. I don’t care about the adults but Gabe it was heartbreaking.
@@RancherNikki thank you. It is just terrible how they miss use a very stretched emergency unit just to make a scene in this crazy show. Many of us know someone who was taken due to covid and it makes me angry to watch them manipulate something so tragic for personal gain. Thank you and John from Belgium 🇧🇪
I went back & started binging from S1E1 and Season 3 is when Christine first mentions having issues with Robin….she is soooo cute and accommodating all the way through S7….which I’m currently on episode 8. And You can tell how hard Christine is trying. 🧡🧡🧡 all the best to that gracious lady.
I can't wait for the rewatch. From the beginning Robyn was conniving. She KNEW taking Kody to pick out her wedding dress was wrong, that's why she asked him not to tell the other wives. She KNEW kissing him before they were married was wrong. If she was so worried about showing the other wives she was "worthy" she would have got off her skinny butt and have gotten a JOB. NO, she can't leave her kids for a second. When she wouldn't let Christine babysit and hired a Nanny in Las Vegas the other wives should have called a family meeting and said, no. We don't do this. That's not this family's culture.
@@christinemyers9341 I stopped watching after season one because I did t think I could stomach what Robin was about to do to these people. Everything that’s happened (except the catfish!) I pretty much predicted. I’m a kid of a marriage where a Robin like woman swooped in and took my dad (and all his resources) for herself and her kids.
Great idea...I'm going to do that as well. I haven't watched this show much but I'm loving these women making life changing decisions. Their children obviously haven't embraced polygamy.
Nailed it! "Sobyn came into this family hat in hand", $35,000 debt, no job, separated her children, ran from Christine during childbirth to go kiss Sobyn... I can go on. Aurora had to separate for 10 days & Kody was upset. You have 13 other children, Kody. Sobyn was not even on oxygen and taped herself. Oh please. I have John's patience welling up in me and Gabe broke my heart. Janelle's not going to sit and silently and be berated. Remember last season's Thanksgiving talk? Thanks, Nikki & John. Have a blessed day! xoxo
Kody saying he should check himself in like the hospital was a hotel. You don't decide the hospital does. Gabe talking about Kody not remembering his birthday was heart breaking. He has ruined his relationships with his children not the moms.
I am so proud of Gabe ❤️ It's soooo hard to cut a toxic family member out of your life, especially a parent. He's such an admirable young man, a lot smarter than I was at that age. Team Gabe all day everyday! Sidenote: Kootie said I 158 times, me 32 times, and My 33 times this episode. I truly don't understand why it's called sister wives when it's obviously the Kootie show.
On one of the early shows they went to Kody's home town and talked to his High School classmates. One of them said that they thought Kody was gay. That might be why he has a problem with his manhood. Love you guys!
@@sabrinanettey4105 Lol, so true! Nikki and John give voice to our own inner dialog as we watch. David gives brief psych insights. James is basically Dad, extracting the lessons to be learned. Then there's countless others who capture every single detail on screen and off to go over with a fine-toothed comb. I can't get enough, and I've never actually seen an episode!
Janelle is definitely taking her own advice! Imo she's 100% planning to leave, but she's got to get her financial ducks in a row. Unfortunately, she's in quite a pickle thanks to Kody and Robyn's out of control spending.
I didn’t really know if my husband watched. But he made a statement, “I always thought that guy was weird. No wonder he took that religion. Only way to get women”
I was heartbroken for Gabe. He said that was the last time I spoke to my Dad. No reaction from Kody. Aurora was in the basement for 10 days. Kody was sobbing. What the actually F! BTW got 2 more books! Loving them. Easy to read and great storylines and characters.
Kody's reaction over not seeing one of Robyn's daughters for 10 days is not only weird but creepy AF. Screams unhealthy attachment. There is something very dysfunctional going on between Kody, Robyn and her kids. Something codependent and needs serious therapy.
I think Kody can’t stand staying with anyone very long. He uses Robyn as an excuse to leave not realizing what he’s making Robyn look like. Robyn says she doesn’t get him very long either. Kody just lies. I believe he had Adult ADHD or bipolar or something besides just narcissistic. He flit farts around too much. And what’s with the gloves?
I thought last episode was bad but the Gabe part broke my heart I am a mother of five and I cried for this young man. Koty is the worst human and can’t claim he is a Dad.
I don't get how Janelle can call Kody her best friend, when he treats her kids like he does....you treat my kids like Kody treats Janelle's kids, is a line too far.
I think Janelle is feeding Kody a little BS herself and getting herself in shape financially and with solid plans and when ready will throw all his crap right back in his face......and be gone!! Janelle is so smarter than Kody and when she goes he will really know she is GONE!!!!!
It was Halloween 2021. It was for the cameras. Kody was trying to raise Robyn's likeability factor with the Sister Wives audience by saying that it was Robyn's idea. It was the first time ever that Kody got involved in Halloween with any of his kids. Christine posted about Halloween in 2022 in her Utah neighbourhood that she never knew that dad's participate in Halloween.
There was an episode in like season 1 or 2 about Halloween. Kody was the "sun" and then the ladies were the elements. But they made it a point to say they didn't trick or treat, from what I remember. They just had the kids carving pumpkins and stuff. My guess is they just didn't want to spend money on costumes for all the kids.
Some religions don’t celebrate Halloween. I’m sure the religion there were involved with is one that doesn’t celebrate it. Some people do it in secret some do what they did in season one. They tailored it to what they thought would be okay, acceptable to God. It sounds ridiculous but from a religiously brainwashed mindset it’s not. I totally get it because I was raised in a similar religious environment. Not polygamy! 😂
He is definitely trying to do damage control. I'm sure he and she are very aware that their fan base is dwindling. When Janelle goes. I will too.. I'm not sticking around for The Kody and Robyn show.
John, please make a support video to all the husbands that have to watch with their wife’s. I need my husband to know he is not alone! 😂 You poor guys deserve a medal!
Kody and Robyn's LLC company name (DABSARK) is his and Robyn's initials along with their children's initials. (Dayton, Aurora, Breanna, Solomon, Arianna, Robyn, Kody) And he wonders why his relationship is strained with the majority of his children. Shady stunts like that play a part.
What John said about the Halloween costumes is hilarious. When I first saw Robin I thought Kody has switched into a Cleopatra costume at first. Robin looked so masculine and Kody so feminine.
It's just sad what has become of this family! Something separated them! Whether it was Robyn, or Kody's desire for obedience, or Kody's only true love for Robyn, I don't know, but it's just sad! So many great children, so many great adults! It's just sad!
What has become of the family is that 3 of his wives are too old for him now. I bet he takes on a much younger woman\wife now, to replace Christine and stroke his ego. Barf!!!!!
Kody did everything but tell Janelle to walk away but she is one very smart lady. She is saying all the right things to keep Kody thinking she still loves him. She has no choice until her financial situation changes for the better. Truthfully, I think she will quickly tell him to "take a hike" as soon as she is on sound financial footing.
Yes I agree She is useing reverse physiology on him to try to buy more time. I hope it works and she takes him and Robin to the cleaners She has a lot of information to tell the feds if he doesn’t cooperate
Off topic, but The Office thing made me think of it... Didn't Robyn have a picture made that rewrote history and made it look like Kody was the bio dad to her first 3? Or like she was with the family from the beginning? Like Michael Scott did with the holiday card? 🤣 If so why do people never talk about this?! Seems so crazy to me! And my husband adopted my first born, so I do get the desire to be an in tact family, but.... she cray.
Yes! You remember correctly. Michael in the office photoshopped himself into his girlfriends picture with her ex. Robyn had a drawing made Kody with her kids as babies/toddlers.
That picture was beyond weird and creepy. Why would you do that ever but especially when your kids still have a relationship with their biological father?
John has the best facial expressions! Thanks for keeping it so real! Love your recaps. I live in Utah and am always on the lookout for Christine and Janelle when I'm out and about.
You explained my husband and to a T. Walking through the room grumbling about how terrible of a man Kody is and what he'd do if Kody spoke to him the way he speaks to Christine and Janelle.
Actually Robin WAS wrong when she told Cody to get back over there and camp out at the house. At that point, Christine had kicked Cody out and didn’t want him there anymore for sleepovers. To tell him to camp out there is actually disrespectful. Also as far as getting rid of the person who brought covid into the home…. I just saw a pic on Reddit of him with her and….. honestly I can’t even talk about it comfortably. It’s awful. Robin is a horrible human being for letting her kids be in that man’s presence.
@@Katie-qg7xz OMG It was … ugh I hate even describing it, so I won’t. It’s on Reddit in the r/sisterwives section. Pic of kody with the second daughter
“this man couldn’t fight his way out of a paper bag” you & John have got to stop making me spit out my drink 😂😂 I just posted 10-15 minutes ago how much funnier you 2 are getting! I ❤️ it!!!!
Meri went to thanksgiving. He said Garrison has to call him, imagine telling a mother he can’t have her son to her house or she go to his house until he and others reach out to Kody.. OMG
@@VC_Home4Now pretty sure my 23 year old has been brainwashed by her roommate. My daughter and I were super close. Last year she got a new roommate. Who moved into the house WE got for our daughter. In August my daughter had back surgery. She kept canceling on us to visit. Even flaked on her little sister's 3rd birthday. So one day we popped in. Her roommate basically kicked us out. Calling us rude for showing up in "the shared space" I waited for my daughter to tell her to stop disrespecting her mother. Especially when that twit said I needed permission to come over. I told her I didn't need to ask anyone to visit MY CHILD! I was livid and forced myself to bite my tongue! Out of respect for my daughter we left. I haven't heard from her since. She blocked us on social media. And when we call it goes to voice-mail. No communication for my birthday or Thanksgiving. Crazy the power certain people can take away from others. Hopefully someday soon my daughter will wise up. Before it's too late! Her little sister doesn't understand why "sissy" doesn't see her. Kody has no idea the damage he has done to his children, over a power trip!!
@@JulieDmomof3 I'm so sorry about your daughter. I hope you and your family find support to help you through this conflict. Dealing with high-control relationships and religions is super-tricky. ☹️
@@Kinnesan I agree. Ever since this girl came into her life, she's been distant. It started with her bailing on us with plans. Or having to rush our visits at our place, due to her roommate needing something. She even bought a new car to taxi this chick around. Luckily she still talks to her younger brother who lives with us. He's our only form of communication. But that might not last.
I want to remind everyone that this man who is crying over being separated from his college age daughter for 10 days, spent 11 DAYS on his honeymoon with Robyn. When he had an 8 week old baby at home and tons of younger kids. The hypocrisy infuriates me.
I think now that most of the kids are grown and can form their own opinions and feelings towards the entire situation, I think Janelle and Christine have started to wake up to the idea that yeah my kids are telling me that this wasn’t healthy for them, and I’ve felt like this isn’t healthy for me, they’ve started to see and get perspective with their teen/adult kids as they started to feel more empowered to cut ties with Kody and Robyn. Also too, I’m so tired of Robyn not acting like an adult. Robyn calls out the kids all the time and it’s really immature to me. She did the same thing when they announced Solomon’s birth pointing out the teens weren’t happy enough for them, THEN when he was born specifically called out Hunter by name about not having a good attitude, when we know full well that Hunter has been a great older brother to the kids, just like all of Janelles boys have. Why was this ever necessary??Robyn is not a victim, she’s one of the five parents and she’s never acted like one. And I’m excited to hopefully see in next weeks episode where Janelle walks off, that hopefully she calls Robyn out again, that she didn’t do anything to appropriately integrate into the family from the beginning. Then I hope she says peace out and goes on to live her best life like Christine haha.
But here's the thing, ya'll.. you're coming from a place where Robyn and Kody are genuine in their grievances. Both of them know exactly what they're doing and that's why what they say contradicts itself. Robyn is outright lying. She has been behind the destruction of this family since season 1. She has laid out the foundation to be the 'favorite wife.' She's manipulated Kody and the other wives and fuels Kody's current descent into this "manosphere" and aggression he's adopted over the last 5-6 years. Robyn lies outright to the camera. She has created this division, she's isolated herself purposely and has been nefarious with the financials. (I mean, she manipulated Meri into divorcing so she could be the only legal wife!) Remember when they were going through applying for credit for the Las Vegas homes? Their financial guy mentioned to Robyn about her THREE legal names! Robyn stated to him nervously, "Uhhh, that was by accident, nothing you know,..." Then in her talkinghead interview with TLC clarified and said she did go under THREE names to avoid issues with her ex-husband (the one that divorced HER. Not the other way around). Robyn is a crook. She had tons of debt, she sought the Brown's out for security for her and her children. She's a hypochondriac and as for the money, that's all she cares about. She's not loyal to Kody. She's loyal to the security the show and he provides.
Robyn complained that they didn't take her to her room. She did not need a room. Robyn was treated as an out-patient. They did the tests and monitored her for a while before sending her home. That's good medical treatment.
The only reason that Robin told Cody to try to work it out with Christine. It was all because of the money. I don’t think Robin cared one way or another whether their relationship was good or not.
Robin’s older daughters are being groomed and the way kody acts around them is really creepy In my opinion creepy Kody is a very deranged and dangerous excuse for a man
I read somewhere that the reason Robyn convinced Kody to adopt her kids is probably because she wanted to eliminate the girls from the possibility of becoming future wives.
What 11 yr old wants to join her father to "do chores"? No planned activities? After all that time? Meanwhile he's crying for Robyn's daughter... he missed her 🤬
I thought that was embarrassing too how Janelle was basically begging for Kody to agree that things were good with them and that they were closer than they really are and that he means more to her than she to him clearly, thats just embarrassing for her and I felt it too
OMG John’s eye rolls in this video are EVERYTHING! Also….”come at me, bro”!!!! I almost choked on my water!!! Love you guys. Been a fan for years and am a fan for life 🥰
John, it's good to see you feeling more yourself. This season should be used to teach students what abuse in the real world looks like. Janelle is too intelligent for this. I've spent ages trying to figure her out. She has faith and seems a true believer. But, anyone who caused my child the damage he’s handed out to hers - especially Gabe - would have been covered in whatever he was so anxious to eat. He is too similar to my deceased father. I would like to tell Janelle how crippling his abuse still is... At 60. This is not a small thing. Abuse is abuse. Emotional abuse blows up your self-dialogue to such an extent that these people are never the same after. Even if they successfully begin a new life it follows. Trauma must be brought into the light and then it can be disarmed. I hope Gabriel has an excellent therapist and a supportive girlfriend. He lost his future when he was forced to move. I hope he finds a chosen father figure to help him heal.
Haha thank you for calling out Mykelti. I also wonder if her “loyalty” is also rooted in on her job which is selling those leggings. Maybe she is in Meris down line and has to play a part to keep food on her own table for now?
I feel like Mykelti craves the spotlight and enjoys stirring the pot. She claims she is a bridge to both sides but she’s not. I also think she is trying to get some kind of spin off for her own family. So if she plays this character of loving both sides she will get more screen time. She appears fake, not honest and not trustworthy. Tony seems a little more real to me, but still they are very suspicious. I agree with you, where is her anger regarding kodys treatment of her mothers and siblings??
I really appreciate your stance to never judge the children. I have been dismayed by how often several social-media commenters and posters have become aggressively brutal toward some of the kids.
I have never cared for Tony and Mykelti but I really think they are acting like Robyn and Kody are so great for a paycheck. This just sounds like Tony to me.
Kody keeps trying to make some excuse for us to feel bad for him and Robin and her kids. They are all backfiring. We dislike R & K and there kids more than ever
I'm team Janelle but the one thing she does that just bothers me to no end is she WILL NOT stand up to Kody. Her sons stand up for her on her behalf. Everyone talks about how slighted her marriage is compared to Robyn. She even asks Kody would you be happier if I acted differently (wth!). She just won't say I don't like how YOU treat ME to Kody. She is so non confrontational and had allowed it to get this bad by saying nothing. Please just tell him he's walking all over your boundaries with his nonsense!
Janelle and Christine sincere about sister wife relationship. She isn’t going to hate her the second she leaves just cause. Bashing Christine will not let him heal. Assuming he is healing from anything.
You two are so good together. My husband and I have the same marriage. We are definitely separate people but most of all want to be together. It’s been 40 years and six kids later. My husband won’t hang around while I watch sister wives though.
He definitely gotten worse. Some of his old comments don't reflect what he says now. The manosphere admission is concerning, many "manifestos" were uploaded to those sites if you catch my drift. They are on FBI watchlists.
One of my rules in life: Don't argue with crazy 🙂 Also, the reason why they are supposed to obey and be polygamous is that it is the only way to achieve salvation. In addition, losing Christine means their planet will be smaller. (Salvation=your own planet) In polygamy boys are disposable; girls are an asset because they are future wives. (Big planet) And yes, Kody is an unpleasant mess.
One of my favorite Real Robin moments was on the zoom call when Kody said adult kids don't need their father. She had a look on her face like what??? Then I think she said in the confessional that she didn't agree with that.
OMG JOHN IS HILARIOUS. WHILE YOU RANT, HIS FACAIL EXPRESSIONS ARE SO SPOT ON! YOU GUYS ARE SO IN TUNE! I LOVE THIS. ESPECIALLY, WHEN HE SAID "TALKING TO YOU MERI!" LOLLL!!!!
Oh boo hoo to sobyn, I waited in the waiting room for 45 minutes having a heart attack. When I asked the receptionist if she had mentioned that I was having chest pain she said they would get to me when they could! I got snarky because I was in pain and I said so I’m just going to sit out here and die in the lobby? Little missy said,”I hardly think you’re going to die if you are up walking and talking”. Her and her 12 grade education knew best. 5 minutes after I said something, a triage nurse came and got me and guess what?! I WAS having a heart attack. I was a trauma nurse for 10 yrs, I knew the signs.
This episode was rough. First, OMG Gabe's breakdown, I was sobbing. Broke my heart. Kody is a terrible father. I don't blame his kids that don't want or pursue a relationship with him. I'm also a bit taken aback by how "willing" Janelle is to do a "re-set" with Kody and their relationship. Just surprised she still considers him her best friend when it's plainly clear that she doesn't speak with him about most of what she feels. She definitely has that dynamic with Christine, but not Kody. I think maybe she's playing her cards very carefully. I think she has to because she has nothing and without financial freedom and something to leave with, she's gotta play it somewhat safe until she can leave if she chooses to. I don't know, sometimes I feel like she's not going to leave despite the fact that I believe she eventually should when she can. But they're also filming so far back, so today in almost 2023, who knows what is happening.
I noticed Janelle's body language when she was talking to Kody. She was hunched forward with her shoulders pulled in like she is protecting her heart. Very telling! Yet she is sitting upright, shoulders back when on the sofa addressing the camera.
Can you imagine how Gabe felt about that? Gabe you are to leave your high school and your wrestling team so that Robins kid can go to a school of his choosing!! That had to be a slap in the face.
They had to make Robyn’s case that severe to align with their narrative that she & Sol are so “high risk” cause that justifies the strict “rules” they followed supposedly
I almost cried watching Gabriel crying but thought, move on dude. Your Dad isn't worth those tears, he doesn't deserve you. My mother would rarely call me on my birthday and never sent me a card. When I joined the Army and was going to basic training, the month after my eighteenth birthday, my mother could only manage " who is going to cook for the boys now?" It's difficult to know you're not important but in order to be okay you need to realize it's not your fault. As an adult I came to realize that while my mother could've done better she had a really f-ed up childhood and was emotionally stunted. The best thing Gabriel can do is be a better Dad to his own children. Kody said his Dad gave him $50 or $500 or threw him out. So apparently he didn't learn to do better for his own sons.
Season 15 episode 7. Cody was going to talk to Meri. Robin called him while he was fixing to record and social distance, he approached Meri with his phone to FaceTime with the 3 of them. He turned to Robin and asked for permission to be that close to Meri. It was very quick, easy to miss.
That was ridiculous ! Robyn never did say why she 'face timed' him...and why was that? Why not text or call...if it was important. Just like she went to Janelle's with the towel warmer when Kody was quarantining there, after going to Janelle's mother's funeral. She just cannot let him spend his time with the other wives... With the other wives.
Gabriel was Kody's youngest son for about 10 years before Solomon was born. I think he was Kody's golden boy when he was small, then was discarded when Solomon came along and Kody had his new/last son with his favorite wife. Gabriel has been neglected, rejected and ignored for the last decade+. The other boys always had another little brother come along pretty quickly behind them, so they didn't have as much time to be the prized son like Gabe did. I think that is why it is effecting him more deeply than some of the other sons. He is totally within his rights to feel how he is feeling. He seems like a great young man that Kody is really missing out on(like most of his other siblings). Kody=tool, Gabe=amazing.
What a fascinating and well supported point, thank you.
When Kody was so upset about Aurora being separated gave me the heebie jeebies!
I don't care what anyone says, Kody has a weird/creepy relationship with her.
It was straight up weird. I quarantined when I had it and I love my kids but I didn't "sob" because I didn't see them. I would talk to them thru a door or they would call me. It wasn't some devastating event. There's under the same dang roof. It was cringy.
I think he’s grooming Robyn’s girls to be his wives. He kisses them on the mouth and everything. Just so gross!!!
There’s lots of precedent in polygamist communities of men marrying mother-daughter pairs 🤢
@@marisa_425 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
I am a retired nurse, when Kody said that he was going to admit himself to the hospital, I was floored! That's not how it works. Robin never was admitted to a room at the hospital. It appears she was just in ER. She wasn't even on oxygen!
Yesss!!! He is a a Narcissistic tart!!!
Also he said people only go to the hospital to die. What a jerk. I agree Robin did not have 02, a monitor, or anything.
I am an ICU RN and have worked with COVID patients since the beginning. She could still talk even with being short of breath. Also she wasn’t on any oxygen. Her head of bed wasn’t up at a 90 degree level. She didn’t even talk about the COVID protocol that she would have gone through. Not to mention the other symptoms that she would be experiencing. Also, with K saying that you go to the hospital you die. I guess he forgot that some of his kids and Grandchildren have been born in the hospital. Not to mention I remember when Truely had to go into the hospital when she was very sick and her kidneys were shutting down & she survived thanks to the hospital. Do you think they have had the vaccines for COVID? If you are at a risk for COVID then get the VACCINES!! Don’t risk losing your family for this.
I am also an Rn and neither Kody or Robyn were I'll enough to actually be admitted to the hospital!!! Certain criteria has to be met before a person is admitted .
Exactly!
2 of my kids worked on ambulances during the worst times. Robyn was not wasting nor was she in any danger of death. She was exactly the type that clogged up hospitals and wasted resources.
So very true
I am a nurse and was hospitalized twice for days in Jan 2020. IF Robyn had been truly in respiratory distress she sure as back would NOT have a mask on and be filming herself!!! Freak
This is exactly right, she didn't even have oxygen! She was fine, sick but fine and Kody Id be hell bent to even think he had it, that man looked fit as a fiddle.
She is so dramatic...it was just a strong cold for her and she played it up. She could have waited to see her GP vs clogging up the ER. And she is so doom and gloom why is she scaring those kids like that?
I was wondering what insurance she has. I wonder if they have access to screen actors guild insurance. Otherwise aren’t these ppl chronically uninsured.
I found it hysterical how Kody, the drama queen, was complaining that he had Co-Vid and then shows everyone his temperature was exactly ONE DEGREE ABOVE NORMAL! 🤣
And since 98.6 is qn average, his temperature is normal for some people.
Kody telling janelle that his kids can’t see her and she can’t go to them until they call him and Robyn and make amends? He made choices and those choices have consequences. Every mom in America hates him. COVID literally more important than Gabe. Literally.
My daughters family had covid. I personally had many risk factors for severe covid. However something happened health wise with one of my grandchildren so the parents had to ago the hospital with that child for a couple of days, because once in they could not leave as they both had covid. I went to look after my other granddaughter knowing I would get Covid. I went anyway because your kids and grandkids are EVERYTHING. Anyway I did get covid but I survived
Kody is the lowest of the low!! Shame on him for treating people the way he does. He is going to end up financially broke, with none of his children wanting anything to do with him , and properly alone since Robyn will leave him when he can no longer provide her with all she wants and has to go to work herself!!! She simply wants someone to take care of her and all her needs and support her without lifting a finger to contribute!!!! She is fooling no one,!!
Every mum in the world! I can’t stand that man.
@@pbpb-he6gx EXACTLY!!!! My husband got Covid from work and asked if he should quarantine. We have no kids of our own. I told him absolutely not. I would give my life for him in an instant. I took care of him and he took care of me the following week. We both had co-morbidities and I did NOT care.
Janelle repeatedly saying your my lover .. was aimed at Robyn, because she thinks it’s just her and that will make her crazier than she is already!!! 😂😂
I wondered that a bit to
Kody was looking confused as h*ll when she said that! 🤣🤣🤣
Talking all romantic. But part of me thinks she was trying to set a honey trap. Get him back in bed and get her dang land! 😝🤣
Omg! That makes perfect sense!!! 😂😂😂
Their house is messy probably because they lost the nanny! Bwahaha! They cant afford her since Christine left! Bwahaha! 🤣
He was her lover to create children only. He has never shown affection and spent time with her since Robin.
John would be an AMAZING tell all host!!! Finally someone not putting up with Kody's BS!
Can we get a petition?
PLEASE TLC CAN WE HAVE THAT
Pretty sure it would end up in a fist fight😂 my money is on John!
I watch this show to see John’s reactions. Priceless.
I was thinking the same thing earlier today! Would love to see that!😂 I commented earlier also, Kody thinks himself a mob boss, but he’s really a schoolyard bully, in need of an ass kicking. John’s just the guy to do it!👊🏼
My heart breaks for Gabe. Gabe had covid in January 2021. Kody called him on October 11, 2021 because he wanted to learn more about covid for Robyn and Robyn's kids. Kody calls to take. He had not spoken to Gabe in months. Kody did not call back to wish him a happy birthday until someone told Kody to do so.
Gabe really seems to want to have a relationship with his dad and keeps being disappointed. It really was heartbreaking.
@@2legit64 yes!! It's so sad! I kept thinking of Gabe probably getting happy / excited when he saw Kody's number pop up and then how disappointed he must have been after knowing Kody didn't call to tell him happy birthday & only called for something about himself!
That tore my heart out to see Gabe break down and cry. Kody is losing his whole family and I believe Robyn may go in the end if she’s left with him alone. I really believe she only married him Meri May keep hanging on to no avail. She should’ve left him long ago. She only married him for support. The others leave she’ll lose her mansion.
I always get the feeling that Robyn says she 'loves' the boys and Kody's other children because that's what 'good Sister Wives' are supposed to say. Every time she is contacted by one of them, she complains to Kody about being verbally abused by them. Then Kody berates the mother of that child and drama spirals. With the exception of Truely, all of the other kids are ADULTS. Yes, Savannah turns 18 this week. Past time for Robyn to get comfortable with uncomfortable conversations with her step-children. Every time she includes Kody she makes the chasm between Kody and his other kids wider. Note: Several of Kody's kids are no longer in contact with him. Gabriel is one of them. Crushing.
Robyn is queen of the narcissistic victims
Absolutely if Robyn loves the other 13 kids so much why is it that she doesn’t interact with anyone 😂
Robyn is a sneaky snake 🐍
She doesn't even really know the boys.
Exactly... if you're their mother too, Robyn, why aren't you up for the uncomfortable conversations? I have bonus sons and they talk to me INSTEAD of their mom a lot.
As a mom of two sons (aged 18 & 20), my heart broke for Gabe, I wanted to give him a huge hug!
Everyone should send a birthday card to Gabe!
Exactly! I think many felt like that.
I'm going to put it on my calendar at the end of September
I feel like that might make him feel worse? We should send a card to KODY on Gabe's birthday! That would be hilarious!
I wanted to punch him on Gabe's behalf. I honestly think that's why Kody is so adversarial with Gabe and Garrison because he treats their mom like crap and they are defending her. He manhood is threatened by the fact that his sons are stronger and more protective than he is towards Janelle.
If I had an address to send that kid a card I would send him one every single stinking year. I'm not a mom and I wanted to hug the stuffing out of him and tell him he's a good guy and it's going to be all right.
Ysabel didn’t have Kody noticing her pain all those years, pain doing the exercises to save him money., there for hours during the surgery, there for after the surgery recovering, yet he is hours in truck which Robyn being checked in the ER? And weeks later can’t drive to Janelle’s for trick or treat. So much for no more social distancing.
That was wicked horrible!!! I couldn't believe it I was freaking out!!
The whole covid thing really triggered me. I had covid for 4 weeks and no way would I have been able to film me. They insulted the many people who really suffered due to covid. My sister was hospitalized and could not breath without assistance sadly she past away just 2 weeks after being admitted. I am not questioning Robyn not feeling well due to covid but it was not bad enough to waste 6 hours at the hospital with just your regular mask, no oxygen. The Gabe scene made it worse and my heart broke. I don’t care about the adults but Gabe it was heartbreaking.
I’m so sorry to hear about your sister.
@@RancherNikki thank you. It is just terrible how they miss use a very stretched emergency unit just to make a scene in this crazy show. Many of us know someone who was taken due to covid and it makes me angry to watch them manipulate something so tragic for personal gain. Thank you and John from Belgium 🇧🇪
I'm so sorry 🙏 for your loss...
Neither of them actually had a medical diagnosis this was in their heads. Any one who does this I never want to befriend. They use.
Kody so dramatic. He just didn’t get the sympathy he wanted. Never mentioned his Covid rules didn’t work for him.
I went back & started binging from S1E1 and Season 3 is when Christine first mentions having issues with Robin….she is soooo cute and accommodating all the way through S7….which I’m currently on episode 8. And You can tell how hard Christine is trying. 🧡🧡🧡 all the best to that gracious lady.
I can't wait for the rewatch. From the beginning Robyn was conniving. She KNEW taking Kody to pick out her wedding dress was wrong, that's why she asked him not to tell the other wives. She KNEW kissing him before they were married was wrong. If she was so worried about showing the other wives she was "worthy" she would have got off her skinny butt and have gotten a JOB. NO, she can't leave her kids for a second. When she wouldn't let Christine babysit and hired a Nanny in Las Vegas the other wives should have called a family meeting and said, no. We don't do this. That's not this family's culture.
@@christinemyers9341 I stopped watching after season one because I did t think I could stomach what Robin was about to do to these people. Everything that’s happened (except the catfish!) I pretty much predicted. I’m a kid of a marriage where a Robin like woman swooped in and took my dad (and all his resources) for herself and her kids.
Watch season 8 episode 7 xx
@@sandragill9916 I haven’t gotten there yet. Almost.
Great idea...I'm going to do that as well. I haven't watched this show much but I'm loving these women making life changing decisions. Their children obviously haven't embraced polygamy.
Nailed it! "Sobyn came into this family hat in hand", $35,000 debt, no job, separated her children, ran from Christine during childbirth to go kiss Sobyn... I can go on. Aurora had to separate for 10 days & Kody was upset. You have 13 other children, Kody. Sobyn was not even on oxygen and taped herself. Oh please. I have John's patience welling up in me and Gabe broke my heart. Janelle's not going to sit and silently and be berated. Remember last season's Thanksgiving talk? Thanks, Nikki & John. Have a blessed day! xoxo
Kody saying he should check himself in like the hospital was a hotel. You don't decide the hospital does. Gabe talking about Kody not remembering his birthday was heart breaking. He has ruined his relationships with his children not the moms.
In Kody's world, loyalty means: everyone does what I want!!!
I am so proud of Gabe ❤️
It's soooo hard to cut a toxic family member out of your life, especially a parent. He's such an admirable young man, a lot smarter than I was at that age. Team Gabe all day everyday!
Sidenote: Kootie said I 158 times, me 32 times, and My 33 times this episode. I truly don't understand why it's called sister wives when it's obviously the Kootie show.
Kudos to you for counting! I knew he was bad. Now I know it by the numbers!
Sipping by counting those words would cause a very drunken party goer.
@@elainelevasseur7213 I'd have to get my stomach pumped before the first commercial
I have never counted, but have asked the question how many times he was put upon. Thank you for keeping track.
Ever notice kootie is front and center in almost every picture?
On one of the early shows they went to Kody's home town and talked to his High School classmates. One of them said that they thought Kody was gay. That might be why he has a problem with his manhood. Love you guys!
Kody is ”creative” when remembering family history. 👿
Yep... Recollections may vary
My heart broke for Gabe. Kody doesn’t deserve such a fine son.
Made me cry and I felt angry 😡 and so hurt for him!!!
@@eileendoerson8637 Same. That poor boy has been through so much. I wish someone would stand up for him.
I wish David from Pop Psych would able to do the "tell all" at the end of the season. That'd be suuuuper interesting.
Or James from My Take on Reality spittin' truth about Kody's parenting.
So basically we're all obsessed and watching everyone who is talking about this show 😂
@@sabrinanettey4105 Lol, so true! Nikki and John give voice to our own inner dialog as we watch. David gives brief psych insights. James is basically Dad, extracting the lessons to be learned. Then there's countless others who capture every single detail on screen and off to go over with a fine-toothed comb. I can't get enough, and I've never actually seen an episode!
@@irisblue2332 how about David & James and John? Now that would be great tell all!
@@jandedick7519 YES PLEASE!
I Love the chemistry between you both. This is what grounded love looks like.
I’m still laughing about John’s take on Mary… The weird booger that won’t go away! 😂😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂
Janelle is definitely taking her own advice! Imo she's 100% planning to leave, but she's got to get her financial ducks in a row. Unfortunately, she's in quite a pickle thanks to Kody and Robyn's out of control spending.
My husband is the same. He hated it but watched it cuz we went down to 1 TV. Now he's yelling at the TV screen at Kody. Hilarious!
I didn’t really know if my husband watched. But he made a statement, “I always thought that guy was weird. No wonder he took that religion. Only way to get women”
@@laneneal3510 too funny, he is awful inside and out. Men can see that rt away. They know each other better than we know them. Lol
I was heartbroken for Gabe. He said that was the last time I spoke to my Dad. No reaction from Kody. Aurora was in the basement for 10 days. Kody was sobbing. What the actually F! BTW got 2 more books! Loving them. Easy to read and great storylines and characters.
I am so enjoying watching him being so JEALOUS! Its historical! He so wants Janelle to choose him and not Christine. It's wonderful to watch!!!!
The only good thing from this episode was Robyn’s eyebrows taking a breather. Looks much better natural than colored in.
Right?
😂
Do you mean her "caterpillars"? 😂
@@TheMom2three 😂
They looked much better than the sperm eyebrows!
Kody's reaction over not seeing one of Robyn's daughters for 10 days is not only weird but creepy AF. Screams unhealthy attachment. There is something very dysfunctional going on between Kody, Robyn and her kids. Something codependent and needs serious therapy.
I think the same maybe some grooming pretty scary
I think Kody can’t stand staying with anyone very long. He uses Robyn as an excuse to leave not realizing what he’s making Robyn look like. Robyn says she doesn’t get him very long either. Kody just lies. I believe he had Adult ADHD or bipolar or something besides just narcissistic. He flit farts around too much. And what’s with the gloves?
John feels better!! But has retained super sarcasm!! Love it!!
I thought last episode was bad but the Gabe part broke my heart I am a mother of five and I cried for this young man. Koty is the worst human and can’t claim he is a Dad.
I don't get how Janelle can call Kody her best friend, when he treats her kids like he does....you treat my kids like Kody treats Janelle's kids, is a line too far.
I think Janelle is feeding Kody a little BS herself and getting herself in shape financially and with solid plans and when ready will throw all his crap right back in his face......and be gone!! Janelle is so smarter than Kody and when she goes he will really know she is GONE!!!!!
It was Halloween 2021. It was for the cameras. Kody was trying to raise Robyn's likeability factor with the Sister Wives audience by saying that it was Robyn's idea. It was the first time ever that Kody got involved in Halloween with any of his kids. Christine posted about Halloween in 2022 in her Utah neighbourhood that she never knew that dad's participate in Halloween.
There was an episode in like season 1 or 2 about Halloween. Kody was the "sun" and then the ladies were the elements. But they made it a point to say they didn't trick or treat, from what I remember. They just had the kids carving pumpkins and stuff. My guess is they just didn't want to spend money on costumes for all the kids.
Some religions don’t celebrate Halloween. I’m sure the religion there were involved with is one that doesn’t celebrate it. Some people do it in secret some do what they did in season one. They tailored it to what they thought would be okay, acceptable to God. It sounds ridiculous but from a religiously brainwashed mindset it’s not. I totally get it because I was raised in a similar religious environment. Not polygamy! 😂
He is definitely trying to do damage control. I'm sure he and she are very aware that their fan base is dwindling. When Janelle goes. I will too.. I'm not sticking around for The Kody and Robyn show.
John, please make a support video to all the husbands that have to watch with their wife’s. I need my husband to know he is not alone! 😂 You poor guys deserve a medal!
Kody's inability to communicate... has anyone ever asked him to define "loyalty?" I don't think it means what he thinks it means.
I love the way Cody says that Robin is so sick but yet she is filming herself for TLC lol with no oxygen attached!
We want to know “What does Robyn do?” I vote for John to do the tell all
Kody and Robyn's LLC company name (DABSARK) is his and Robyn's initials along with their children's initials. (Dayton, Aurora, Breanna, Solomon, Arianna, Robyn, Kody) And he wonders why his relationship is strained with the majority of his children. Shady stunts like that play a part.
In an ER, in the bed, NO IV, NO O2.
What John said about the Halloween costumes is hilarious. When I first saw Robin I thought Kody has switched into a Cleopatra costume at first. Robin looked so masculine and Kody so feminine.
😂😂yeah and she talks about the other women letting their bodies go.
It's just sad what has become of this family! Something separated them! Whether it was Robyn, or Kody's desire for obedience, or Kody's only true love for Robyn, I don't know, but it's just sad! So many great children, so many great adults! It's just sad!
I really wonder if Kody doesn't have some kind of mental issues. He is so off the chart.
Don't forget Covid excuse!!!
What has become of the family is that 3 of his wives are too old for him now. I bet he takes on a much younger woman\wife now, to replace Christine and stroke his ego. Barf!!!!!
These children became great young adults because of the Mothers who raised them. Kody only contributed sperm!
He’s a classic narcissist. It all makes sense, even how was from beginning.
One more thing. No one has mentioned Robyn being in that black hoodie, looking like an extra in Handmaid's Tale.
Roflmao! Exactly what I thought!
I was trying to figure out if she's Aunt Lydia or if the handmaids were given a reprieve from the white hats & red dresses. 🤣
Your comment really made me laugh 😂
Bwahahaha
@@jeaniemiller2880
Oh! Definitely an Aunt Lydia! Ugh!
Kody did everything but tell Janelle to walk away but she is one very smart lady. She is saying all the right things to keep Kody thinking she still loves him. She has no choice until her financial situation changes for the better. Truthfully, I think she will quickly tell him to "take a hike" as soon as she is on sound financial footing.
Yes I agree She is useing reverse physiology on him to try to buy more time. I hope it works and she takes him and Robin to the cleaners She has a lot of information to tell the feds if he doesn’t cooperate
💯!!!
Off topic, but The Office thing made me think of it... Didn't Robyn have a picture made that rewrote history and made it look like Kody was the bio dad to her first 3? Or like she was with the family from the beginning? Like Michael Scott did with the holiday card? 🤣 If so why do people never talk about this?! Seems so crazy to me! And my husband adopted my first born, so I do get the desire to be an in tact family, but.... she cray.
Yes! You remember correctly. Michael in the office photoshopped himself into his girlfriends picture with her ex. Robyn had a drawing made Kody with her kids as babies/toddlers.
@@RancherNikki is it just me or is that creepy?!
@@AndiLawson27 not just you.
@@RancherNikki it's definitely creepy!!!
That picture was beyond weird and creepy. Why would you do that ever but especially when your kids still have a relationship with their biological father?
John has the best facial expressions! Thanks for keeping it so real! Love your recaps. I live in Utah and am always on the lookout for Christine and Janelle when I'm out and about.
You explained my husband and to a T. Walking through the room grumbling about how terrible of a man Kody is and what he'd do if Kody spoke to him the way he speaks to Christine and Janelle.
Actually Robin WAS wrong when she told Cody to get back over there and camp out at the house. At that point, Christine had kicked Cody out and didn’t want him there anymore for sleepovers. To tell him to camp out there is actually disrespectful.
Also as far as getting rid of the person who brought covid into the home…. I just saw a pic on Reddit of him with her and….. honestly I can’t even talk about it comfortably. It’s awful. Robin is a horrible human being for letting her kids be in that man’s presence.
What was the pic?
She should have kicked him out day 92 for the year many years ago.
@@Katie-qg7xz OMG
It was … ugh I hate even describing it, so I won’t. It’s on Reddit in the r/sisterwives section.
Pic of kody with the second daughter
Yeah Kody and Robyn are disgusting for letting that happen.
Tried to find the pic. I feel like I am thrown back to middle school when people loved leaving you out of the loop.
“this man couldn’t fight his way out of a paper bag” you & John have got to stop making me spit out my drink 😂😂 I just posted 10-15 minutes ago how much funnier you 2 are getting! I ❤️ it!!!!
I would pay to see John rumble with Kody
That would be fun to watch
Me too!!!
Meri went to thanksgiving. He said Garrison has to call him, imagine telling a mother he can’t have her son to her house or she go to his house until he and others reach out to Kody.. OMG
That is a reasonable expectation when you are in a cult. Whoever doesn't conform must be shunned.
@@VC_Home4Now pretty sure my 23 year old has been brainwashed by her roommate. My daughter and I were super close. Last year she got a new roommate. Who moved into the house WE got for our daughter. In August my daughter had back surgery. She kept canceling on us to visit. Even flaked on her little sister's 3rd birthday. So one day we popped in. Her roommate basically kicked us out. Calling us rude for showing up in "the shared space" I waited for my daughter to tell her to stop disrespecting her mother. Especially when that twit said I needed permission to come over. I told her I didn't need to ask anyone to visit MY CHILD! I was livid and forced myself to bite my tongue! Out of respect for my daughter we left. I haven't heard from her since. She blocked us on social media. And when we call it goes to voice-mail. No communication for my birthday or Thanksgiving. Crazy the power certain people can take away from others. Hopefully someday soon my daughter will wise up. Before it's too late! Her little sister doesn't understand why "sissy" doesn't see her. Kody has no idea the damage he has done to his children, over a power trip!!
@@JulieDmomof3 I'm so sorry about your daughter. I hope you and your family find support to help you through this conflict. Dealing with high-control relationships and religions is super-tricky. ☹️
@@JulieDmomof3 Sounds like your daughter is being abused by her roommate. Please get your daughter to speak with you.
@@Kinnesan I agree. Ever since this girl came into her life, she's been distant. It started with her bailing on us with plans. Or having to rush our visits at our place, due to her roommate needing something. She even bought a new car to taxi this chick around. Luckily she still talks to her younger brother who lives with us. He's our only form of communication. But that might not last.
2.5 minutes in and John is at peak feistiness this week 😂😂😂
I don’t understand a guy claiming to be so masculine, but looking for women to pay for his lifestyle. He literally lives off women.
Come on, don't you know kootie and sobyn are actor????😊
They didn't even put Robyn on supplemental oxygen after seven hours in the ER, so she wasn't THAT serious.
Hope to see your channel grow more (:
You guys are hilarious together.
I personally would like to see a spin off featuring just the og3 and kids.
I want to remind everyone that this man who is crying over being separated from his college age daughter for 10 days, spent 11 DAYS on his honeymoon with Robyn. When he had an 8 week old baby at home and tons of younger kids. The hypocrisy infuriates me.
It's so funny. John says the same things my husband yells from the other room while I watch the show.
I think now that most of the kids are grown and can form their own opinions and feelings towards the entire situation, I think Janelle and Christine have started to wake up to the idea that yeah my kids are telling me that this wasn’t healthy for them, and I’ve felt like this isn’t healthy for me, they’ve started to see and get perspective with their teen/adult kids as they started to feel more empowered to cut ties with Kody and Robyn.
Also too, I’m so tired of Robyn not acting like an adult. Robyn calls out the kids all the time and it’s really immature to me. She did the same thing when they announced Solomon’s birth pointing out the teens weren’t happy enough for them, THEN when he was born specifically called out Hunter by name about not having a good attitude, when we know full well that Hunter has been a great older brother to the kids, just like all of Janelles boys have. Why was this ever necessary??Robyn is not a victim, she’s one of the five parents and she’s never acted like one. And I’m excited to hopefully see in next weeks episode where Janelle walks off, that hopefully she calls Robyn out again, that she didn’t do anything to appropriately integrate into the family from the beginning. Then I hope she says peace out and goes on to live her best life like Christine haha.
But here's the thing, ya'll.. you're coming from a place where Robyn and Kody are genuine in their grievances. Both of them know exactly what they're doing and that's why what they say contradicts itself. Robyn is outright lying. She has been behind the destruction of this family since season 1. She has laid out the foundation to be the 'favorite wife.' She's manipulated Kody and the other wives and fuels Kody's current descent into this "manosphere" and aggression he's adopted over the last 5-6 years. Robyn lies outright to the camera. She has created this division, she's isolated herself purposely and has been nefarious with the financials. (I mean, she manipulated Meri into divorcing so she could be the only legal wife!)
Remember when they were going through applying for credit for the Las Vegas homes? Their financial guy mentioned to Robyn about her THREE legal names! Robyn stated to him nervously, "Uhhh, that was by accident, nothing you know,..." Then in her talkinghead interview with TLC clarified and said she did go under THREE names to avoid issues with her ex-husband (the one that divorced HER. Not the other way around).
Robyn is a crook. She had tons of debt, she sought the Brown's out for security for her and her children. She's a hypochondriac and as for the money, that's all she cares about. She's not loyal to Kody. She's loyal to the security the show and he provides.
Robyn complained that they didn't take her to her room. She did not need a room. Robyn was treated as an out-patient. They did the tests and monitored her for a while before sending her home. That's good medical treatment.
Usually, it's safer being home than in a hospital
Gabe said it best in earlier episode, if they got COVID and Kody still didn't come around it was never about COVID
The only reason that Robin told Cody to try to work it out with Christine. It was all because of the money. I don’t think Robin cared one way or another whether their relationship was good or not.
Robin’s older daughters are being groomed and the way kody acts around them is really creepy In my opinion creepy Kody is a very deranged and dangerous excuse for a man
I read somewhere that the reason Robyn convinced Kody to adopt her kids is probably because she wanted to eliminate the girls from the possibility of becoming future wives.
Yeah he's a pervert and Robbers daughters will end up the same way if they don't wake up and smell the coffee
Johns face when you said rewatch😂😂😂
Not John wanting to throw hands 😂. I appreciate John's unedited views so much
What 11 yr old wants to join her father to "do chores"? No planned activities? After all that time? Meanwhile he's crying for Robyn's daughter... he missed her 🤬
My first thought was Robyn wanted Truely out of the house.
I thought that was embarrassing too how Janelle was basically begging for Kody to agree that things were good with them and that they were closer than they really are and that he means more to her than she to him clearly, thats just embarrassing for her and I felt it too
You have a good man Nicky. You guys are cracking me up. I haven't laughed this hard in a long time. John, keep it up brother man
OMG John’s eye rolls in this video are EVERYTHING!
Also….”come at me, bro”!!!! I almost choked on my water!!!
Love you guys. Been a fan for years and am a fan for life 🥰
John could come right in our house and talk like he talks and we would laugh out loud and add our own crass comments. Love John.
John, it's good to see you feeling more yourself.
This season should be used to teach students what abuse in the real world looks like.
Janelle is too intelligent for this. I've spent ages trying to figure her out. She has faith and seems a true believer. But, anyone who caused my child the damage he’s handed out to hers - especially Gabe - would have been covered in whatever he was so anxious to eat.
He is too similar to my deceased father. I would like to tell Janelle how crippling his abuse still is... At 60. This is not a small thing. Abuse is abuse. Emotional abuse blows up your self-dialogue to such an extent that these people are never the same after. Even if they successfully begin a new life it follows. Trauma must be brought into the light and then it can be disarmed.
I hope Gabriel has an excellent therapist and a supportive girlfriend. He lost his future when he was forced to move. I hope he finds a chosen father figure to help him heal.
Haha thank you for calling out Mykelti. I also wonder if her “loyalty” is also rooted in on her job which is selling those leggings. Maybe she is in Meris down line and has to play a part to keep food on her own table for now?
I feel like Mykelti craves the spotlight and enjoys stirring the pot. She claims she is a bridge to both sides but she’s not.
I also think she is trying to get some kind of spin off for her own family. So if she plays this character of loving both sides she will get more screen time. She appears fake, not honest and not trustworthy. Tony seems a little more real to me, but still they are very suspicious. I agree with you, where is her anger regarding kodys treatment of her mothers and siblings??
I really appreciate your stance to never judge the children. I have been dismayed by how often several social-media commenters and posters have become aggressively brutal toward some of the kids.
I vote Judge Judy hosts this year’s Tell-All 😏
I have never cared for Tony and Mykelti but I really think they are acting like Robyn and Kody are so great for a paycheck. This just sounds like Tony to me.
She’s being trained by her mom on the dramatic crying….lol
Kody keeps trying to make some excuse for us to feel bad for him and Robin and her kids. They are all backfiring. We dislike R & K and there kids more than ever
I'm team Janelle but the one thing she does that just bothers me to no end is she WILL NOT stand up to Kody. Her sons stand up for her on her behalf. Everyone talks about how slighted her marriage is compared to Robyn. She even asks Kody would you be happier if I acted differently (wth!). She just won't say I don't like how YOU treat ME to Kody. She is so non confrontational and had allowed it to get this bad by saying nothing. Please just tell him he's walking all over your boundaries with his nonsense!
Janelle and Christine sincere about sister wife relationship. She isn’t going to hate her the second she leaves just cause. Bashing Christine will not let him heal. Assuming he is healing from anything.
You two are so good together. My husband and I have the same marriage. We are definitely separate people but most of all want to be together. It’s been 40 years and six kids later. My husband won’t hang around while I watch sister wives though.
I want a tell all where they ask about the money hosted by Doctor Phil and I love the look Janelle gives Robyn in the clip for next week !!
I guess the nanny doesn't clean? She's no Alice from the Brady Brunch. 😂
He definitely gotten worse. Some of his old comments don't reflect what he says now. The manosphere admission is concerning, many "manifestos" were uploaded to those sites if you catch my drift. They are on FBI watchlists.
One of my rules in life: Don't argue with crazy 🙂 Also, the reason why they are supposed to obey and be polygamous is that it is the only way to achieve salvation. In addition, losing Christine means their planet will be smaller. (Salvation=your own planet) In polygamy boys are disposable; girls are an asset because they are future wives. (Big planet) And yes, Kody is an unpleasant mess.
He wants to divide that land into 5 lots for Robyn's kids. That's the master plan.
One of my favorite Real Robin moments was on the zoom call when Kody said adult kids don't need their father. She had a look on her face like what??? Then I think she said in the confessional that she didn't agree with that.
"Come at me bro!" That was it for me 😂🤣😂
OMG JOHN IS HILARIOUS. WHILE YOU RANT, HIS FACAIL EXPRESSIONS ARE SO SPOT ON! YOU GUYS ARE SO IN TUNE! I LOVE THIS. ESPECIALLY, WHEN HE SAID "TALKING TO YOU MERI!" LOLLL!!!!
Oh boo hoo to sobyn, I waited in the waiting room for 45 minutes having a heart attack. When I asked the receptionist if she had mentioned that I was having chest pain she said they would get to me when they could! I got snarky because I was in pain and I said so I’m just going to sit out here and die in the lobby? Little missy said,”I hardly think you’re going to die if you are up walking and talking”. Her and her 12 grade education knew best. 5 minutes after I said something, a triage nurse came and got me and guess what?! I WAS having a heart attack. I was a trauma nurse for 10 yrs, I knew the signs.
“Flip a table” thank God I wasn’t taking a sip this time 😂😂
“ My eyes are gonna roll back in my head and never come back!” Bahahahahahahahaha!!!!
This episode was rough. First, OMG Gabe's breakdown, I was sobbing. Broke my heart. Kody is a terrible father. I don't blame his kids that don't want or pursue a relationship with him.
I'm also a bit taken aback by how "willing" Janelle is to do a "re-set" with Kody and their relationship. Just surprised she still considers him her best friend when it's plainly clear that she doesn't speak with him about most of what she feels. She definitely has that dynamic with Christine, but not Kody. I think maybe she's playing her cards very carefully. I think she has to because she has nothing and without financial freedom and something to leave with, she's gotta play it somewhat safe until she can leave if she chooses to. I don't know, sometimes I feel like she's not going to leave despite the fact that I believe she eventually should when she can. But they're also filming so far back, so today in almost 2023, who knows what is happening.
OMG Kody being part of the manosphere makes SO MUCH SENSE.
All the wives are scared and have been scared from the start to bring up issues with Robyn. Kody has trained the wives to act this way, so sad. 😢
Yep
I noticed Janelle's body language when she was talking to Kody. She was hunched forward with her shoulders pulled in like she is protecting her heart. Very telling! Yet she is sitting upright, shoulders back when on the sofa addressing the camera.
Kody was busy squeezing lemons to notice. 😂
Of course it’s because Dayton was going to school there and Robin said she had to be close to Dayton to enable the transition.
Can you imagine how Gabe felt about that? Gabe you are to leave your high school and your wrestling team so that Robins kid can go to a school of his choosing!! That had to be a slap in the face.
I’ve been waiting all day for this reaction.
Me too 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Same
They had to make Robyn’s case that severe to align with their narrative that she & Sol are so “high risk” cause that justifies the strict “rules” they followed supposedly
I almost cried watching Gabriel crying but thought, move on dude. Your Dad isn't worth those tears, he doesn't deserve you. My mother would rarely call me on my birthday and never sent me a card. When I joined the Army and was going to basic training, the month after my eighteenth birthday, my mother could only manage " who is going to cook for the boys now?" It's difficult to know you're not important but in order to be okay you need to realize it's not your fault. As an adult I came to realize that while my mother could've done better she had a really f-ed up childhood and was emotionally stunted. The best thing Gabriel can do is be a better Dad to his own children. Kody said his Dad gave him $50 or $500 or threw him out. So apparently he didn't learn to do better for his own sons.
Season 15 episode 7. Cody was going to talk to Meri. Robin called him while he was fixing to record and social distance, he approached Meri with his phone to FaceTime with the 3 of them. He turned to Robin and asked for permission to be that close to Meri. It was very quick, easy to miss.
That was ridiculous ! Robyn never did say why she 'face timed' him...and why was that? Why not text or call...if it was important.
Just like she went to Janelle's with the towel warmer when Kody was quarantining there, after going to Janelle's mother's funeral.
She just cannot let him spend his time with the other wives... With the other wives.
