Right now, Sister Wives Season 19 is on hiatus. But as viewers eagerly await this year’s tell-all, many are taking time to reexamine older seasons. Some viewers have decided to backtrack and tackle one of Robyn Brown’s most despicable interviews.
What exactly did she say to set viewers off?
Robyn Brown Once Mocked Her Sister Wives’ Appearances
It’s been a while since Robyn Brown once said such shocking and cruel things about her sister wives’ physical appearances. But her words still ring fresh in the minds of many.
“Robyn’s Not-So-Subtle Power Move,” one Reddit user posted on the platform, proceeding to quote the TLC star. “‘When I came into this family, I knew and I saw that when there’s stretch marks and there’s weight gain, and you’re being stagnant in the marriage, or there’s fights or there’s money problems or whatever it is, he still had this romance going on with each of them. I saw it. He had sweet things with each of them. I’m like, you have this opportunity. And why are you looking at my orange? You have an apple. It’s not better, it’s just different.’”
The OP went on to dissect Robyn’s quote and how problematic they found it.
“Robyn really made it sound like Kody deserved a trophy for ‘sticking by’ his wives despite their stretch marks and weight gain,” the OP continued. “As if basic loyalty is some heroic act while accusing them that they had stopped putting effort into themselves, relationships with Kody—physically, emotionally, romantically. I don’t think that’s all she saw. She saw a family on the verge of TV fame/money and servicing Kody and sliding those bills over to Janelle was better than working the drive through. She was the younger, thinner ‘upgrade,’ and swooped in to take control. This wasn’t about love or faith, it was a calculated move.”
Sister Wives Fans Offer Their Own Thoughts On The Subject
Right away, other Sister Wives viewers recognized Robyn Brown’s speech about the other wives’ appearances. Many praised the OP’s take on the subject, echoing similar sentiments.
Other Reddit users wrote:
- “Truly, a backhanded compliment throughout that little speech. I think she’s dumb as a rock, but she is sly as a fox.”
- “This may be the best description of Robyn I’ve ever heard.”
- “Every single comment she makes is an insult. She is so Robyn do right. She lectures the OG on who they are and how they parent. She judges them all. Why does she feel it is her place to do so? So many metaphors out there for her judge and jury behavior.”
- “One of the best explanations I’ve ever read about her power move. Outstanding take on shy, pretty Robs; well done!”
