LAWYER UP | Sister Wives | David and Allison react to Season 19 E.19

[@4ur2missme]

Robyn was the entire reason for the family leaving Vegas, so she could be near Dayton at the university he was accepted into. Robyn is the reason the entire family was uprooted and moved.

[@deehente8530]

Robyn was the reason they moved from Lehi to Vegas and again from Vegas to Utah. She fakes being upset and not wanting to do something but really it is exactly what she wants - just like the big house.

[@kaziJohnson]

I think she is why kody up and moved them to Vegas too. There was never any real threat of jail but Kody scared the wives and kids so Robyn could have her way

[@kathleenbell218]

Also their balloon payment mortgages were coming due which they couldn’t afford. They wanted to get the equity out of the houses.

[@brendatruant7404]

I am not a Robyn fan, but to be clear… that is not why they move to Vegas. The first move was to Vegas because “the law was after them”. Yes, Robyn’s dad lived there. They supposedly moved to Flagstaff because of Dayton, her son. I just feel incredibly sorry for these kids.

[@deehente8530]

​@@brendatruant7404 Actually - the whole 'the police were after them' has been debunked for years. The police were not after them, it was all done for show. The siren heard while they were packing up was an ambulance siren. But odd that the location picked was where Robyn's family lived. Not a coincidence.

[@Whiskeyriver714]

Clearly Allison is correct. Robyn never wanted the “other” kids to be familiar enough to walk in like family.

[@cathywithac]

They bought CP for just over $800,000. According to tax records, the current value is over $1.3 million. The entire first lot was purchased from the family account. He calls it HIS money. They closed that purchase then bought the other 3 lots from the same owner and used the first lot as collateral. That's why they would have lost all 4 lots if they defaulted on any payments.

[@EsmeraldaMeredith-b5g]

Thank you for breaking this down !! I was always so confused by this purchase.

[@Simamber30001972]

Thank you! I think I finally get it

[@laneneal3510]

Yep. It wasn’t all his money

[@aananimity]

​@laneneal3510 right - he tries to be an a "man" with his own money. He's tries to manipulate them but it didn't work.

[@tanyarosemeyer5513]

I don’t understand how it’s worth so much because another page said there’s no way anyone could build there because of zoning or something like that and the “pond” he bleats on about is a run off collector and WHO would swim in that with plague ridden rodents on site?

[@jillkubitschek2145]

I basically agree with all of Allison’s takes. Kody trying to say he paid with his money alone when it was from the family pot makes me so angry.

[@joyprice209]

Yep, those chunks he pulled the last few years that they had no business knowing about.

[@khallo151]

12:13 - I think you’re forgetting that Kody’s whole goal is to punish the women for leaving him.

[@Tinkerbellprincess2]

Someone pointed this out on another podcast, but Janelle's computer is May 1st which is after Garrison's death and Kody is STILL acting this way.

[@Hurt_mama]

That's crazy!

[@Kirstenshelves]

The part with Kody and Robyn on Coyote pass was the end of the summer, he said it himself. It looks like that part was filmed end summer 2024. The whole storyline timeline is all over the place. There is a lot of footage with Garrison which is removed. That is why there is so much giller with Christine’s marriage. But there are also al lot of re- shoots with Kody and Robyn, because their storyline was about their beef with Gabe and Garrison. It is a shame Kody and Robyn didn’t changed their narrative about the children besides Robyn’s children.

[@terristeinback6801]

@@Kirstenshelvesthat’s the question everyone is asking, summer 23 or summer 24? Judging by the younger ones sizes it looks like 2024 but that’s a guess

[@cathywithac]

Janelle was legally married to Meri's brother Adam before Janelle married Kody. Kody married Meri's ex-sister-in-law and they had planned to marry on Meri's birthday. Kody's mom persuaded them to move their wedding day to the day after Meri's birthday. The distrust runs deep.

[@hiimliv3735]

I was seriously side eyeing them for saying it’s because Janelle is smart and Meri was particular about the kitchen 😭 Like seriously people Janelle was her sister in law and got the hots for her husband and because Meri hadn’t been able to conceive, Kody married Janelle. 😮‍💨

[@cathywithac]

@@hiimliv3735 In Maddie's podcast she said that it drives her crazy to share a kitchen with Janelle because Janelle is so messy and doesn't clean up after herself. Maddie is so much like Meri.

[@hiimliv3735]

@@cathywithac i get that but to dismiss is as one is smart and the other is ocd is crazy to me. Obviously their issues went much deeper than intelligence and cleanliness.

[@EyerollERdoc]

​I often wonder if Meri had been able to conceive and had numerous children early on if Kody would have ever bothered with polygamy. Meri's infertility at least appears to be a motivating factor for Kody to pursue polygamy and quickly.

[@monogamousapostate6626]

Meri and Kody had a house to live in once they "married" Janelle. She had a job too.

[@Obstinate_Headstrong_Girl]

Did you just say that Robin was the only wife who did not want to leave Vegas? Because that is the opposite of the truth. Robin instigated the whole move to Flagstaff because she wanted to follow her son Dayton since he had been accepted to college there. Robin helped instigate the move to Vegas because she had family there and was pregnant, and she instigated the move to Flagstaff to follow her son. Christine was the one who absolutely did not want to leave Las Vegas.

[@kristinesharp6286]

Janelle did not want to leave Vegas. Meri spent months mostly in Vegas after the movie. Christine went begrudgingly.

[@alexandriaconnor8178]

[@kimapel1528]

11:43 David I strongly disagree that they should have a sit down with Kody. Janelle is right that they'll get nowhere and he'll just talk in circles with word salad nonsense. They absolutely have to lawyer up to get this resolved.

[@ginaconover7597]

I was coming here to say the same thing💯

[@cathywithac]

Robyn History for you: Robyn was raised in polygamy in an AUB trailer park in Pinesdale, Montana. Her bio-dad, Robert Marck, had at least 2 wives. Her mom, Alice, was the first and legal wife. They divorced/released when Robyn was 9. Alice then married her neighbour in the trailer park and friend’s husband, Paul Sullivan. It was arranged by the AUB. It was not the, 'Hey, you should marry my husband so we can be sister wives" myth. It was arranged so that someone would pay for Alice and her kids' upkeep. She was a spiritual wife, the 2nd or 3rd wife. This explains so much about Robyn’s apparent predatory approach to marriage. At the very beginning Robyn said she was looking for a husband who would support her and her kids financially. She didn't need to love him. He didn't need to be young and handsome either. She was tapping into the AUB social welfare system for solo moms with kids like her mom did. The AUB were trying to ensure that she and her kids did not leave the religion. And then she met Kody with his flowing blond hair and sparkling smile. Robyn wanted to live polygamy like her mom and stepdad did. * Paul worked. He was a surveyor in Las Vegas, Nevada. He was a carpenter too. Paul passed away February 22, 2022. * Paul moved 2 families to different states: the legal wife and kids to Las Vegas, Nevada. Alice and her kids to St George, Utah. Paul’s families did not mix much after that. * Robyn thought that that is what polygamy was. Separate families in separate houses/cities/states. Separate lives. Friendly when they crossed paths. And always jealous of the 'other' family who got more time, got to spend holidays with him and were perceived to have more resources. * Robyn was raised in a separate ‘monogamous’ family unit with a part-time. weekend step-dad. * Robyn’s mom severed the relationship between Robyn and her bio-dad just like Robyn severed the relationship between her ex and his children. * Alice positioned herself as the ‘mistress wife’ that he would want to spend most of his time with. * Alice did not have a job outside the home. He provided the money they lived on. * Alice was always competing with the other wife for time and resources for herself and her kids and she was good at it. * Alice was jealous of the first wife and taught her daughters that being the legal wife was better. * Robyn got what her mom said Robyn needed to be happy and Robyn was still not happy. Sidebar: Robyn's 2 moms still don’t like each other very much. Sharing a husband killed their friendship. The first wife does not want Alice to join her and Paul in the celestial temple.

[@chinynwosu]

Thank you!

[@Auntrisarahtops]

Wow

[@7493h]

What happened to Robyn’s kids real dad? Why isn’t he in the picture?

[@honeybear12513]

​@7493h she divorced him, she essentially told him that she'd take on all the debt if he signed over the rights to the kids so Kody could adopt them! He had no money, so he knew with her new husband and their show he had a lot to lose. She made him out to seem like he was abusive and just a horrible person. She promised him that he could continue to have a relationship with the kids if he signed them over, so he did. She then told the kids their dad signed them over. She then SURPRISE SURPRISE, didn't hold up her end of the bargain and alienated the kids from him. She erased him from their lives and inserted Kody. From what was last known, he had an aggressive form of cancer and didn't have much time. He wanted to see the kids, but of course, they probably have no idea, and if they do, they're probably convinced he's the devil! Robyn is an actual evil person. She has destroyed SEVERAL families.

[@Sail392]

⁠@@honeybear12513 That’s Robyn’s story. But in reality HE divorced her after his family had given them money to pay off her credit card debt and she kept spending and hiding purchases and hiding debt. It ruined his business and he had to pay his family back for that loan and they still had all the credit card debt. That’s why she got that debt in their divorce. He was already paying that amount back to his family. He wasn’t going to pay it twice bc she’s a liar and a thief. She’ll bankrupt Kody soon enough now that they don’t have three other women paying for everything. And then she’ll leave him and get a new AUB husband. You can see her already setting it up by talking with her sad victim face about he picks fights with me, I don’t recognize him, he says a lot of strange dark things, I have to stop him from scaring the kids. Once they’re in bankruptcy court she’ll claim abuse (again) and she’ll find Ari and Sol a new daddy.

[@sarcasticcatlady2036]

Dave… bro… did you forget all the past seasons of this show? Kody Brown is utterly incapable of settling anything as an adult. It’s either lawyer up and sacrifice a little to the legal system or get nothing. Also 💯agree with Allison that he doesn’t get it 😂

[@Lady.Scorpio7]

He hasn't watched all of the seasons and episodes since the beginning like most viewers have.

[@sarcasticcatlady2036]

@ I think you missed the humor of the comment. I will say that I’ve watched enough recaps of David watching previous seasons that Kody’s immaturity shouldn’t have been in question. That behavior has been rampant in the past few seasons.

[@stephanietaylor8615]

We never knocked at my grandparents houses when we came over. We would let ourselves in and yell "knock knock!" As we walked into the house. I do the same at my parents house now. Some family members I will do this at their house if I'm expected. We usually keep our front door locked, but if I know that family is coming over I unlock the door so they can let themselves in if my hands are tied up with something.

[@brendaseay89]

Allison haven't you heard the line, What's mine is mine and what's yours is mine 😂😂😂

[@cathywithac]

Kody is the reason Aurora and Breanna said 3 or 4 kids max. Kody proved to them that no man can connect with and parent more than 3 or 4 kids. Sidebar: It is recognition by Aurora and Breanna that Kody failed his other 13 children. They do not want their childhoods for their future children.

[@CornerLotHomestead]

In polygamy, no. I don't see a man being able to connect and parent with more than 4-5 kids, and several wives. In monogamy though, a man absolutely can! (And maybe that's one thing that Kody actually appreciates what he has with Robin...and his sole focus went to her and thier family alone- Wrong to do, but he did it.) We have 8 children (monogamy of course), and no way would I have that many children if I didn't have a supportive husband and father to lead the team.

[@lindaefraim5895]

Of course you can connect with more kids but Kody didn’t have the capacity to do it. You have to be able to take time to be with your kids. It’s not only to be a funny dad that do things with your kids. It’s to be there everyday and in every aspect even when it is boring.

[@michele1491]

I feel like Kody helped create a competitive and contentious relationship between his wives.

[@deehente8530]

Right - he was always triangulating them. Just like he has told the family that Janelle was in charge of the money - as opposed to what she really was, which was a simple accountant. I think one of the reason he put Robyn and Christine on property and Meri and Janelle on property is because he knew he would have more control - as Robyn and Christine don't talk and Meri and Janelle don't talk. Had he matched Janelle and Christine - they could have worked together if they both had chosen to leave. Same with Robyn and Meri.

[@laneneal3510]

Purposely

[@MrRaftakis]

Absolutely! Divide and conquer.

[@katethegreat26]

100% agree, it’s how I can (very rarely) feel for Robyn as well. I’ve never, in 19 seasons, seen Kody correctly identify a feeling. He misunderstands his wives almost exclusively, and he takes any complaint or negative feeling as a personal slight. If you imagine how he filters information, and then imagine him communicating like a broken telephone to each wife, the women would never have a clear picture of where they stand or how the others feel about them. It doesn’t help that none of them are very good communicators, but Kody is the main issue. That’s why it’s easier for them to get along when he’s gone. Even ROBYN gets along with them better without him (when the twins were born, for example).

[@bridgettross4589]

1000%

[@monimoo88]

David is far too optimistic about meri and Janelle’s ability to get Kody to agree to their terms without being told by a judge that he has to lol.

[@EsmeraldaMeredith-b5g]

[@juliegold9607]

He will definitely screw them over any way he can. If he can legally take all of CP and cut Meri and Janelle out of it, he definitely will. Even if it's not legal, he'll still try. He's a snake.

[@corinnecarlman9992]

They lawyered up

[@hiimliv3735]

David: they should sit down together and figure this out Kody: why would I help my ex wives, they’re my exes I don’t owe them anything ….. David a sit down isn’t going to help, he doesn’t want to solve this he wants to drag it out. At the end of the episode they keep talking about how they want to stay on CP. Kody and Robin could have easily bought them out and stayed on the property.

[@Sophia-uu1im]

Agree! You can’t “work something out” with a narcissist.

[@kimm6589]

David clearly hasn't been through enough sht to know that many times the BEST course is to just get a lawyer.

[@kellycampbell6826]

[@reginalatson79]

Kody can’t be trusted from the start. The property was never divided equally. He claimed the big dream to build one big house. Then he tried to claim he should get a plot all for himself, where he can still build a home where everyone can gather, or he can escape.

[@Caroline-ce9lf]

Who knocks at their mom’s house? My adult kids never knock at my house, but they yell hello when they walk in.

[@andlpn1]

Robyn actually wanted to leave Vegas, Janelle and Christine didn’t, they didn’t want to uproot the children again. Janelle even told Kody she doesn’t didn’t care about how much money they could make in Vegas because she was was worried about her children’s mental health, especially Gabe

[@bhd16]

I agree with Allison about the knocking. I think Christine was more referring to the kids and it’s true…your kids don’t knock when they come home. I think Janelle and Christine had that house hopping allowance between each other for the kids, but the other two didn’t.

[@Foothillflow]

The fact that Robyn and Kody had so much equity in their house, all of Coyote Pass should have gone to Janelle and Meri. The situation is just so sad.

[@IaneHowe]

It's more than that. Imagine your real close friend who was married to your brother, leave your brother to marry your husband? Imagine that friend decided she was going to marry your husband on your birthday. The disrespect started earlier on. Meri isn't innocent, but neither was Janelle. And she pretended she was. She said she felt something about Kody when Meri was engaged to Kody. While she was Meri sister in law

[@lillithsternin7428]

Janelle is so nasty. And yes she is likeable but..nah...that's straight up nasty. She's for the streets.

[@laneneal3510]

Meri was Kodys henchman. She kept secrets from the other wives with Kodys and got info for Kody(which Kodys admitted) and tattled. But everyone ignored her too. Her only support she got was when Kody needed her.

[@Dr.sher01]

THANK YOU! Everyone ignores this. All these women were not easy at all. I’m sorry Meri didn’t have more kids as it would certainly have bonded her more with the others.

One of the other creators on here has a compelling theory that him marrying Janelle was his first purposeful punishment for Meri for something he didn’t like. Talk about cruel thing to do.

[@Obstinate_Headstrong_Girl]

Considering how boldly and completely Kody and Robyn have stolen from the family account, stolen money from M and J, and sold lumber from property they didn't even own outright, you think Kody would deal with them fairly on Coyote Pass?? Come on. Lawyers are necessary.

[@LizaS70]

No comment about Janelle saying Kody took money out of the family money without telling anyone? That's when he started spending money on Robyn's wishes!!

[@irisblue2332]

But it was HIS money! /s

[@katherinenelson5905]

The other issues is FAMILY money from EVERYONE went into the house Robin bought. THAT should be part of the finance distribution as well. Kody and Robin made $850,000 off the sale of Robin's house. All told they should be fighting over about $2,000,000.

[@jacquiranko7923]

That's POLYGAMY, baby! There are no rules. Meri's lucky it wasn't one of her nieces, or like the Dargers, one of her actual sisters. They were loud & proud about their lifestyle choices.

[@vixenligon1167]

Janelle divorced her husband after six months. They were already in the process of getting divorced when she met Kody. She was curious about polygamy because of her husband‘s family. Janelle knew Meri for a couple of years before she met Kody. Kody was putting the moves on Janelle without Meri’s knowledge. He would take her out to lunch and things like that.

[@Auntrisarahtops]

Kody got his ears pierced, but his kids were not allowed to. Kody has sex before marriage and lied to his wives about it. Lies about money. Married Mari's ex sister inlaw even though they didn't get along. He says whatever he thinks will get him what he wants. Robyn is the least lucky of the wives because how could you trust kody with anything.

[@aloevera533]

They can’t talk to him. He refuses to talk to them, he’s refusing to answer emails. They have to go the lawyer route. And they really need to have lawyers at this point.

[@LynnWahby]

I always keep my door locked. I have read too many articles where convicted robbers state that the reason they chose a particular house to rob is because the door was unlocked. If it was locked, they moved on to the next house. It's just a safety precaution. I live in a large city where crime occurs regularly. Anyone who is coming to visit me either has called or notified me in advance or they are family and have their own key.

[@Ash.Crow.Goddess]

Or they can knock.

[@KerensaStuart]

I live in New Zealand, and I leave my back door open for the dog. Grew up with the door unlocked. If I am visiting someone who knows I'm coming, I do a courtesy knock before entering, to save them from having to answer the door. It's just manners.

[@lbarmstrong1]

Was that gate up in the cul de sac when the Browns lived there? I think so.

[@MsBHavnNerd]

Yeah, most of my family when I visit their door is locked. But I have a key to my dads house and I don’t knock. I just be bustin in 🤷🏾‍♀️

[@cchappy1]

It was wild to me that the other wives didn’t connect Robyn’s dad as the surveyor they brought out and her having the biggest land 🤯

[@MrsKravitzz]

Sol attempting to chop wood and wielding a huge axe in the background, completely ignored by his parents, is wild to me.

[@oc2538]

14:08 the point of the not knocking on the door was because before moving to Las Vegas they'd be in one home. The entire family under one roof so you wouldn't be knocking if everyone was under one roof and the other wives seemed ok with people coming and going but not Robyn. That being said my Sister in law and I have access to one another's home. I may do an obligatory knock knock if I cannot hear them at all inside. But if I hear them I'll knock and open at the same time. She doesn't knock ....lol she once knocked and then walked to the bathroom and found me blow-drying my hair naked haha she's like I knocked. I'm like well I'm blow-drying my hair 😂

[@karennishie817]

The discussion about knocking is funny. I had keys to my grandparents home long after I moved out, never knocked. My adult kids never knock. I go to their house and never knock...Different strokes for different folks!

[@LO-gp3bv]

💯

[@justjess033]

I was going to say the same. I have keys to all my immediate family’s houses. No one knocks. Come over unannounced and people are always happy to see you. Growing up no one knocked coming into my both my Grandparents home. No one knocked going into most my Aunts/Uncles homes. I get every family is different, so not everyone experiences this. It’s more common in small towns I’m sure.

[@irisblue2332]

I think that your last bit is the only "correct" answer on this matter. Knocking or not is a matter of personal preference and the person whose house it is should define the boundaries. My parents don't live in the same state, but I have two best friends with relationships going back 35 years. One I usually open the door and holler or knock, open, and holler. The other I wouldn't dream of doing that with because they'd hate it. Heck, since getting a high-strung dog, they prefer that I text from the driveway rather than knocking at all. Personally, I prefer people to call before they come over. As you said, different strokes!

[@leipet99]

David, they have tried to work this out without a lawyer. K has told us that he is ignoring them. Lawyer up!!!! As for knocking, are they one family or not?

[@basicallyno1722]

[@AB-dr6zo]

I'm shocked that neither of you has figured out that Kody is labor trafficking these women.

[@katereilly2188]

Janelle and Mary absolutely need attorneys! Robin signed a document in 2018 saying that she does not have her own rights to the property (outside of what Kody gets bcs they're married). They will HAVE to split the property three ways and there's no way Kody will do it unless he is compelled by a court.

[@JEMJo-d6p]

Robyn’s kids are all so awkward. She doesn’t allow them to be individuals. She refuses to let them grow up. The other kids ( except Mykelti) are adults

[@edegler76]

They have to get a lawyer because he won’t talk to them. He’s still picnicking out there with his other family! As long as he won’t move on it, he and Robyn’s family just can use it and the others are in limbo.

[@ams4179]

I never knocked at my moms and my kids don't knock at my house. The doors are always "open" in healthy parent/child relationships.

[@marnieweaver3935]

Depends where you live too!

[@dannibee3648]

It’s so funny that no one ever points out that Janelle was essentially a home wrecker. She was Mary’s sis-in-law and then decided she had the hots for her sister-in-law’s (Mary) husband.

[@stephaniesands119]

Janelle & Meri don't get along because Janelle was originally married to Meri's brother. Then, she divorced him, married Meri's husband, & went on to have 6 children with him (in a thin walled trailer) while Meri struggled with infertility. Also, their pond is a run-off retention pond 🤢

[@tanyarosemeyer5513]

Janelle put all her money into the McMansion so she needs a lawyer to draw down on that too. It’s a separate issue to CP because they paid into that as a separate entity

[@conniecat77]

I think that Kody being the Narcissist that he is, knows that the land is the last thing he can use to control Merri and Janelle. He knows that when the land is gone Merri and Janelle have no reason to communicate with him any more and he has no control over them and that drives him crazy!

[@melsdragon77]

He has 18 kids and Robyn drove the sports car on her own as they were 'escaping'.

[@lacretiahefley196]

Allison, you are so wrong about Robyn and leaving Las Vegas!!! She's the reason they left. It is possible that She is the reason they initially moved to Las Vegas but they left because of Dayton wanting to attend college in Flagstaff. She said, "My Dad worked in Las Vegas and came to us on the weekend because he didn't want us raised in Las Vegas. I don't want this to be our home forever. "

[@trixietrx2346]

So after all this time, you don't think hiring a lawyer to protect say $250K in assets is reasonable? But you think Kody will be fair? This is basically like a divorce, I want an attorney on my side making sure I get my fair share. I'm not sure why you think a man that has shown he isn't fair and who drags his feet would somehow be reasonable.

[@lizasanders8526]

I don't knock at my mom's, and I'm 30. My kids don't knock at her house. Her bedroom, yes but not her house.

[@whitefilly8802]

David... lol Daviiiiddd.. you're crazy if you think meeting with Kody is going to change anything. Love ya, buuuutt.. these women have spent 30 years with him, being manipulated and used by him like cows(Yes.. they have, because that is how the FLDS/AUB works) He knows exactly how to run them. At this point for them I dont think it should be about the money, but about truly freeing themselves from Kody who is positioning himself to take full advantage of them yet AGAIN. A 3rd party to police and wrangle communications AND keep the situation legal is, imo, veeeery important at this point.

[@samanthafelmlee339]

Go back and watch the episode where Kody proposes the move to Flagstaff. It is sooo obvious Robyn already knew about it and the presentation!

[@sarahmacdonald528]

I think they moved to Vegas to be close to her parents and family. And she moved the family again to Flagstaff to be with her son because that's where he was going to College.

[@erikaak07]

Alison I disagree on robs not wanting the flagstaff move, she was going where Dayton already got accepted to college. And they moved to Los Vagas for her too. She cause a family ofb23 to move twice for her. No one can change my mind

[@dianaelmore3159]

I hope you're feeling well very soon Allison 💞

[@gus0054]

David, saying that the wives allowed it is the same thing as saying that if a man were lying to his only wife in a monogamous marriage and she believed him and supported him and said yes we're going to do this as a family that basically it's her fault because she allowed it if he swindells her. Kody was never honest with these women. It's not their fault that they trusted him as their husband to make financial decisions that would be in the best interest of them and the entire family. That is literally what couples do all the time.

[@maritzaguerrero4560]

Also don’t forget that Janelle was married to Meri’s brother before she married Kody. I’m sure that has something to do with their feelings towards eachother.

[@heatherwest5208]

Janelle was married to Meris brother. They divorced and Janelle married Kody. They don't really talk about it on the show, but that's one reason Meri doesn't get along with Janelle

[@bbearsmama]

Cracking up at Allison envisioning a lot of larvae in the pond! 😂🤣😆

[@patsydawson3929]

You 2 are a fun watch , I always get a giggle 😅

[@OLALALA1019]

The issue with Janelle and Meri really started because Janelle was MARRIED to Meris brother first. Janelle and Meri use to be friends at that point because Janelle was close to Meris family. Then Janelle and Meris brother divorced and she married Kody. So Meri kind of has her reasons lololol that’s awkward as F***

[@mandarinfox1813]

This last episode was interesting if you listened to Robyn carefully so SURPRISE! Her stepfather was living in Las Vegas when they moved there. Her stepfather is a land surveyor, her stepfather came when they bought coyote pass and advised Kody on how to divide up the land…hence Robyn being on more parcels of land even though the only one who never paid into any part of the land was…Robyn.

[@lolabunny9013]

Doesn’t it sound like Robyn’s father was a bigamist ? Not polygamist . I think he married both wives , each lived in a different state ……so that is why he only saw Robyn’s family on the weekends? I wonder if he received legal marriages for both wives.

[@Lady.Scorpio7]

​@@lolabunny9013Robyn's mom was just his side piece.

[@ChelSierra_Remly]

Robyn mentioned her dad was in Vegas. In other channels I follow, the talk is how Robyn is the reason for the move to Las Vegas, to be near her dad. She's been controlling Kody from the very beginning. But then, he is her best customer. So, the other wives are in a marriage, and Robyn is in a brothel. And Kody is focusing on where he's best served.

[@JFengBlue]

You 2 are FABULOUS. I look forward to your videos every week.

[@piperarcher9706]

14:00 i dont knock when I get to my best friends house or family homes. I do let them know my ETA via call or text ahead, tho. If they dont meet us in the driveway, we all have a "let yourself in" policy.

[@rachelpitt3298]

I was eating my dinner and I inhaled my rice when Alison said “Kody just spread his seed” 😂😂😂😂

[@shelleyklapwyk7687]

Sobbem wanted to leave Vegas BC Dayton was going to college in Flagstaff.

[@nataliestalick1895]

David... you are missing Allison's point, and I agree with her... Robyn makes statements all the time, they are "all" her children, so that statement makes weather they live in her house a moot point... when your children leave for college, they no longer live under your roof, and they certainly don't knock to come into their "home"

[@TyneeBubbles]

*moot point 😊❤️ edit; also, I completely agree, all kids should be able to treat each mom's house as their own, that seemed to be the point!

[@jesyka8888]

With the knocking: If you are marrying into a family, that isnone family, and their normal behavior is to not knock because its an extension of your own home....then you have a choice to keep their habits or introduce your own. But this is another reason on the long list of what Robyn did to herself to alienate/divide/set herself apart from the family. Then you want to cry out...they treat us different...?? You can beg to be treated the same and then demand to be treated different.

[@angelclaire100]

Kody worried about how many kids Robyn’s girls want meanwhile he’s a totally absent grandfather to the ones he has presently. Make it make sense

[@Lady.Scorpio7]

Probably because Kody knows Robyn will never allow them to move out

[@Discodaydreams333]

I absolutely love Allison’s takes

[@ericacotter]

I was reminded in this episode that Robyn's father lived in Vegas. So does that mean that's why the family moved to Vegas from Utah? Now I know they said it was because they could face legal issues being a polygamist family. But, since they uprooted everyone because Dayton was going to college in Arizona....it just seems suspicious to me.

[@7493h]

So basically the moms are supporting their kids like they are single moms but Kody gets to keep his money and not share with all his wives and children equally. Wow!

[@JaneWoodBranam]

Kody=pimp

[@Lady.Scorpio7]

Kody used Meri, Christine and Janelle financially so he can spend all their money on his sacred cow and her sacred calves.

[@NicoleBrown-oc7je]

Discussions around the land have proven to be difficult. He won't play ball. Now he wants a much larger cut.

[@Angie-kz7wy]

I don't knock at my parents house but I call out for them once I'm in the house so I don't startle them. I knock at my brother and sisters house out of respect for their partners but if they lived alone, I'm walking in. 😊 That's family! She separated herself from truly being part the family

[@mistybraun9973]

That bugged me so much that Kody counted himself. It was closer to 4.4 to 1 if all th wives did it together but they didn’t.

[@ashleyfrench]

Janelle was married to Meri’s brother and less than a year after Janelle’s divorce, Janelle married Kody. That’s where a lot of the beef comes from, not to mention Janelle’s mother marrying Kody’s dad.

[@theresasullivan8232]

I lived on a culesac growing up, three families could walk in.

[@bobbielongo4546]

Meri didn’t like Janelle bc when her and Kody first were married they moved in with Meri’s brother….who was married to Janelle….. then Janelle left Meri’s brother and Married Kody! So, enough for a familial betrayal there. However, I think she became abusive bc she couldn’t have more babies and Janelle had so many so fast. Her way of exerting power over the other wives was to criticize their housekeeping. Well, Meri yes you can keep everything neat bc you are chasing ONE baby. They are chasing back to back mobs of babies.

[@alyssatuininga]

Plus Meri was super jealous that Janelle married him second hut had a baby first. She had trouble getting pregnant and was super upset when Janelled got pregnant and had 6 kids.

[@catherinedur3733]

Love you guys! You always nail your commentary 🎉

[@LO-gp3bv]

Remember Christine took care of All the kids before Robin and before truly. That is 12-1

[@RichardPlush]

Kody will never play fair, that is why they need the lawyers.

[@Rabbit23]

Robyn wants the family. Family doesn't knock. Yes, announce yourself with a big hello, but no, if Robyn considers them her children, they don't knock.

[@kimberlygarrish205]

Throughout my life until my parents passed away, we never knocked on our parents door and neither did the grand kids. We just walked in and greeted them.

[@KDVoller]

They left Vegas because Robyn's son Dayton was accepted to college in Flagstaff. Paedon confirmed that the move was because of Dayton. Poor Dayton applied to schools out of state to GET AWAY from his mom only to have it backfire and her moving the entire family to Flagstaff. Coyote Pass was purchased for 820k for 14 acres.

[@susanleitch6890]

You missed a big fact in the Janelle/ Meri history. Janelle was first married to Meri’s brother, divorced him then courted and married Kody. That’s where the resentment started.

[@dancingmama6]

Janelle was Meri's sister-in-law before she was Meri's sister wife. I could be wrong, but even if Kody wasn't the reason for the divorce, I could see why Meri would have a chip on her shoulder about Janelle.

[@dazpop]

I really enjoy your shows and the relationship between the two of you 😊😊😊
