In the latest TLC’s Sister Wives, Robyn’s daughters from her previous marriage revealed that they never truly felt welcomed into Kody’s family.
Kody and Robyn, who wed in 2014, have two children together, while Robyn also has three kids, including daughters Aurora, 22, and Breanna, 19, from her previous marriage to David Preston Jessop.
Kody, who follows a fundamentalist version of Mormonism, also has 16 children with his three former wives—Christine, Janelle, and Meri—with whom he was once simultaneously married.
‘My mom’s kids and I have each had our own experiences being told directly—on multiple occasions by different people—that we weren’t accepted, that we weren’t seen as sisters or part of the family,’ Aurora shared during Sunday’s episode.
Breanna added: ‘The parents could have done a better job with connecting us as a family and it never really happened.’

Despite Christine’s insistence that her children viewed Robyn’s kids as siblings, Kody seemed to side with Aurora and Breanna’s concerns.
‘There are some people in my family who feel superior to others and say, “Oh well, we’re not going to include them in our club,”‘ he explained.
The episode comes after Kody admitted he ‘wouldn’t be interested’ in welcoming another sister wife into the family after his splits from wives Meri, 52, Janelle, 54, and Christine, 51, within a span of 14 months.
Christine – who has gone on to marry David Woolley, 59 – announced she and Kody were splitting in November of 2021.
She said at the time in an Instagram statement: ‘After more than 25 years together, Kody and I have grown apart and I have made the difficult decision to leave.
‘We will continue to be a strong presence in each other’s lives as we parent our beautiful children and support our wonderful family. At this time, we ask for your grace and kindness as we navigate through this stage within our family.’
Janelle’s split from Kody was revealed in late 2022 during the Sister Wives: One on One special by Kody.
‘I’m separated from Janelle and I’m divorced from Christine,’ he said. ‘Janelle has made it pretty clear to me that she’s enjoying her life without me.’
Janelle confirmed they had ‘been separated for several months’ as she ‘really became sort of indifferent’ to the marriage.

‘It wasn’t heartbreaking for me like it was for Christine; it was just kind of like, I just mourned that that life was gone,’ she said. ‘We had this great run.’
In 2022, Meri also revealed she was parting ways with Kody after more than three decades together.
The former pair said in joint statement in January, ‘After more than a decade of working on our relationship in our own unique ways, we have made the decision to permanently terminate our marriage relationship.
‘During this process, we are committed to kindness and respect toward each other and to all members of our family, and we are also committed to the continued healing of any and all relationships within the family so that we can move forward with forgiveness, grace, and love.’
