Kody Brown and Robyn Brown didn’t enter their relationship with the expectation of monogamy. Still, that’s where the couple finds themselves after two years of life-changing events in the Sister Wives universe. There’s a new reality facing Kody — focus on his relationship with Robyn or consider adding new wives to the mix.
Those realities are understandably difficult for both of them to digest. As the most recent wife to join the family, either reality presents challenges for Robyn. All the while, she sees Meri, Christine, and Janelle moving forward with their lives.
Robyn Feels She’s Being Forced Into a ‘Submissive’ Role in the Marriage
Robyn Brown long enjoyed preferential treatment as the newest member of the plural marriage in the eyes of many members of the family. That now has changed, sources tell The U.S. Sun, as the couple adjust to their new reality.
For Robyn, the new normal involves dealing with a “very controlling” Kody. While she has shifted to “become submissive,” she’s unhappy with how much control he’s exerting on her life. The source says that includes isolating Robyn from friends she has always held close.
Robyn and Kody are not doing well. They have been very unhappy. I mean, they’ve been unhappy since everything fell apart, but even more so now, it’s getting worse.

The source drew comparisons between Kody Brown and Robyn’s ex, David Preston Jessop. With how ugly her split from him was, and how she got with Kody feeling he was very different than David, people are wondering if this could be the beginning of the end for Kody and Robyn.
The source believes Robyn walking away isn’t out of the question.
Robyn is not committed to staying if things don’t change. That’s just what it has come down to. Their marriage is not going to sustain this kind of control.
She’s not going to let her kids be raised in the same volatile, angry state that her other kids were raised in.
Kody is turning into a mirror image of David. She took her kids away from him and took his parental control away. You think she’s going to stick around for this? No.
The Brown family has certainly undergone some troubled times in recent years. Kody appears to be struggling to deal with a lot of big emotions around his shifting family dynamic. He’s looking to regain control, but at what cost?
