Kody Brown is making it crystal clear that Robyn Brown is off the market, shutting down any notion of other men pursuing her.
In recent “Sister Wives” confessionals, Kody has shown his unwavering attachment to Robyn, coming around to the thought that she is his “soulmate.” However, this declaration sparked a backlash from fans, who accused him of avoiding accountability for the breakdown of his other marriages.
The criticism follows the unraveling of Jody Brown’s plural marriage, with Christine, Janelle, and Meri all choosing to part ways, leaving Robyn as his sole remaining wife.
Kody Brown To Attend Church With Robyn To Ward Off Potential Suitors
Kody insisted on joining his only remaining wife at church to prevent any misunderstandings about her marital status. During a conversation with Robyn, the family patriarch explained his reasoning:
“You don’t want to go too long without me because I don’t want some guy thinking you’re a single mom.”
The 55-year-old shared that he is well aware of Robyn’s popularity, admitting in a confessional, “There’s a lot of men interested in Robyn, and they were sort of trying to get around me and to her.”
So, what sparked this conversation? PEOPLE released an exclusive preview of the Dec. 15 episode of TLC’s “Sister Wives,“ revealing Robyn asking Kody if he was okay with her attending church with their daughters without his presence.
His response? A firm desire to join at some point. In his words, “As long as you guys aren’t blocking me out, I want to come sooner or later.“ As an emphasis to his stance, Kody noted later:
“I want to know that God has been my wingman with you and that nobody can take you away,“ highlighting his determination to keep their bond strong.
The ‘Sister Wives’ Patriarch Jokes About ‘Mate Guarding’ His Wife
Kody doubled down on his stance about protecting his bond with Robyn, even joking about “mate guarding“ to keep other men away.
The father-of-eighteen confessed his concern about history repeating itself. “I don’t want some guy doing that, looking at you and going…holding your gaze,“ Kody told Robyn, adding, “I am protecting the pride.”
Robyn, however, quickly reassured him that he had no reason to worry. “I just have to say I’m married,“ she said confidently. Not convinced, Kody asked to see the “rock“ on her finger, making it clear he wanted it to send a strong message.
“I just wanted to make sure that bling was big enough that the guys would stay away from you,“ the star noted. Robyn responded with a laugh, promising, “I’ll wear it. You don’t need to worry.”
Kody And Robyn Reflect On Their Magical First Meeting
During their conversation, Kody could not help but reminisce about the moment he first laid eyes on Robyn, who would later join his plural home in 2014. Kody grinned as he fondly recalled:
“The first time I saw Robyn — the first time I ever laid eyes on her — I was leaning over the back of a chair, talking to a neighbor behind me, and we locked eyes, and I couldn’t break away.”
Robyn chimed in with her own memory, stating, “I looked at you for a while, and the thing that caught my eye as far as seeing you was your laugh lines because I love laugh lines. And then you looked at me, and a bolt of lightning shot for my body.”
The pair’s connection sparked during a church meeting, but their journey truly began a month later on a chance encounter at her cousin’s home.

However, his confession sparked fan outrage, with many criticizing his treatment of ex-wives Christine, Janelle, and Meri.
The Blast provided details on the controversy, highlighting social media users’ frustrations and criticisms of Kody’s apparent favoritism toward Robyn.
“He won’t ever take accountability for what he did to his family!“ one commenter declared, drawing parallels between Kody’s behavior and their own experiences with a manipulative parent.
A second slammed Kody for rewriting history, writing, “He loves making up what Christine told the kids. They saw how he treated their moms vs how he was with Robyn for years.“
A third quipped, “There’s no one left. He has no choice but to call crying Robyn his soulmate.”

While Kody may be putting on a protective front and expressing deep attachment to Robyn, painting a picture of a flawless relationship, reports suggest otherwise.
In fact, the couple openly acknowledged the struggles in their marriage during a “Sister Wives“ episode, revealing the tough time they have been going through. Robyn confessed:
“We’re probably doing the worst we’ve ever done in our marriage. It’s been tough. It’s been tough between us.”
Kody agreed, acknowledging their rocky patch. The 46-year-old explained that her husband is dealing with feelings of rejection after the departure of his other wives, which impacted their dynamic.
Robyn revealed that she has been walking on eggshells, stating, “I’m on my toes. I’m having to consistently make sure that he is not sabotaging our relationship.“
