The latest drama in the tumultuous world of the Brown family has unfolded as "Sister Wives" season 18 aired its first episode on Sunday, Aug. 20 at 10 p.m. on TLC. The series, which follows polygamist Kody Brown and his "sister wives" Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn, is entering a new chapter with relationships strained and trust hanging by a thread.
Christine's Bold Exit and Kody's Struggle
In the episode entitled “No Such Thing as a Free Lunch,” viewers witnessed Christine's complete removal from the Brown household, a move that left a significant impact on the family dynamics. The holidays were nearing, and the remaining wives Janelle, Robyn, and Meri were left to deal with their fractured family unit. "Relationships have broken and trust has been shattered," the new season teased as reported by NJ.com.
Christine's confrontation with Kody was a highlight of the episode. "No such thing as a free lunch," she declared, marking her first face-to-face discussion with Kody since their separation. A separation that has not only affected Christine but left Kody grappling with the fallout from his other relationships as well.
What's Next for the Brown Family?
Since its inception in 2010, "Sister Wives" has been one of TLC's most-watched shows. The dynamics within the family have seen plenty of twists and turns, with the last 13 years witnessing marriages break and trust erode. Season 17 left viewers on the edge, with Christine leaving Kody, and hints of Janelle and Meri's departure as well.
Season 18 promises more tumultuous turns, with only Robyn remaining on good terms with Kody. "By the end of the season, relationships were broken," said a somber Kody, reflecting on the shaking dynamics of his polygamist family.
The fallout from the divorce continues to unravel, with Kody still struggling with many of his relationships. The anticipation is high as viewers wait to see what the next episode of “Doubling Down with the Derricos” has in store on Sunday, Aug. 27 at 10 p.m.
