Sister Wives Star Kody Brown Plans Possible Fifth Wife Amid Polygamy Reconsideration

Kody Brown, the patriarch of the Sister Wives family, has expressed a strict condition for adding another wife to his marriage with Robyn Brown: the new wife must adore Robyn to the extent that there is no competition for Kody's love and affection, a stance that has drawn criticism from fans who note past wives also adored Robyn without success. Robyn Brown is focused on encouraging Kody to maintain a strong presence in the lives of all his children from his previous marriages and is attempting to bridge the gap between Kody and his children with Meri, Janelle, and Christine Brown. Kody himself has acknowledged a desire to heal relationships with his former wives and children but feels that healing can only occur on their terms, suggesting ongoing difficulties. The couple's discussions about returning to polygamy reveal differing priorities, with Kody bluntly admitting his primary motivation might be physical attraction to a new wife, which Robyn criticizes as a poor basis for expanding their family. Despite fan speculation about Kody possibly adding a fifth wife, no such plans are currently in motion, especially as he remains legally married only to Robyn after splits with his other wives. The evolving dynamics in Kody's polygamous family continue to be a central storyline on the Sister Wives reality series.
