Drama is once again heating up in the world of Sister Wives, and this time, it’s more intense than ever. A shocking wave of revelations is sending tremors through the Brown family — Dayton is stepping away from Robyn and Kody’s shadow, Meri’s long-kept secrets are coming to light, and Kody’s grip on control is spiraling as he lashes out at Robyn in a stunning outburst allegedly fueled by money pressures.
It all starts with a revelation that has long angered fans: despite the Brown family’s success from the show that’s been airing since 2010 and spanned 19 seasons, the children who helped shape the storylines didn’t receive a dime. Gwen, Christine’s daughter, recently exposed that their college expenses were never covered by the network — instead, Christine herself paid out-of-pocket using her own TLC earnings. Gwen emphasized how unfair it was that, despite the kids contributing to the show’s narrative and often being in front of the cameras, they were not treated equally in the financial compensation.This sparked a wave of reactions, with Christine trying to explain her actions, claiming she did save her earnings to support her six children’s futures — from buying cars to setting up college funds. However, fans weren’t fully convinced, noting Christine’s carefully worded statements as possibly avoiding deeper truths. Meanwhile, Gwen’s honesty laid bare how the family went from struggling financially to enjoying TLC-funded stability, something she now views with more bitterness than gratitude.
But Gwen wasn’t the only one to speak out. Tension behind the scenes has now erupted as Dayton, Robyn’s son, is reportedly taking a bold stand, pulling away from Robyn and Kody. Sources suggest Dayton’s decision stems from years of feeling manipulated and excluded from the bigger family picture. This is a significant moment, especially for Robyn, who’s long been accused by fans of being Kody’s “favorite” and benefiting disproportionately from the family’s resources and attention.
As if that weren’t enough, Meri is also under fire. A recent fan-led investigation suggests she may have withheld financial details from the public — especially concerning how her own child’s education was funded. While Meri once positioned herself as self-sufficient and removed from the chaos, cracks in that image are now forming, leading to questions about transparency and accountability.
Meanwhile, the emotional tone of the current season has intensified due to the heartbreaking loss of Garrison. Cody reunited with his ex-wives in Wyoming to say a final farewell to his son — but not without controversy. He came under fire for reportedly leaving Garrison’s ashes in a car and focusing more on himself than honoring his son’s memory. Fans were outraged that the man who hadn’t made an effort to bond with Garrison while he was alive seemed to hijack the moment for attention.
In one particularly raw moment, Cody is said to have had an emotional breakdown, choking up — and not just from grief. Insiders reveal that financial stress is getting to him, especially now that his polygamous structure has collapsed and only Robyn remains. The mounting tension reportedly led to a blow-up between him and Robyn, with Cody allegedly pressuring her to help resolve their financial woes. One source describes the scene as Kody “snapping” at Robyn, demanding she figure out ways to bring in income, possibly even suggesting she return to work or use her influence to secure spin-off deals.
Speaking of spin-offs, there’s strong speculation that Season 20 is already underway — and that it might include a twist. Fans have spotted Meri filming near her bed and breakfast, and there’s buzz that her B&B renovation and Janelle’s move to North Carolina could feature in upcoming episodes. With Christine now remarried to David Woolley, and many of the kids stepping into the spotlight with their own narratives, TLC may be pivoting toward a broader “Ex-Sister Wives” universe, leaving Kody and Robyn increasingly isolated.
The divide within the family is sharper than ever. In recent episodes, Janelle and her children have made it clear that Cody’s presence is neither welcomed nor missed at major milestones — like Savannah’s graduation. Janelle said it plainly: 90 to 95% of the kids have distanced themselves from Cody. The reason? His obsessive loyalty to Robyn and his inability to maintain healthy relationships with his older children.

Fans are clamoring for a new direction for the show — one that focuses less on Cody and Robyn, and more on the women and children who have found strength and independence after leaving the family. There’s growing frustration with how Cody continues to paint himself as the victim, especially while refusing to take accountability for his actions or the alienation of his children.
Adding fuel to the fire was a TikTok video from Paedon Brown that appeared to snub Robyn during a Mother’s Day tribute. While he later insisted it was a joke, fans were quick to interpret it as a dig at Robyn, with many praising him for voicing what they felt. The video stirred a storm, once again highlighting the tension that exists between the children and Robyn.
With the future of Sister Wives hanging in the balance, one thing is clear: the facade of unity is crumbling. Dayton’s quiet rebellion, Meri’s exposed truths, and Kody’s unraveling control paint a picture of a family in deep fracture. As viewers brace for the next season, they’re hoping for more honesty, more empowerment from the ex-wives, and less of the chaotic circus that Kody and Robyn’s relationship has become.
