Robyn expresses her struggles in the relationship, stating, “I feel like the idiot that got left behind.” The trailer hints at deep emotional conflicts and unresolved issues among family members.
Fractured Relationships
Kody Brown’s relationships with his ex-wives Christine, Janelle, and Meri have significantly deteriorated. Robyn, the last woman standing, finds herself questioning the respect she has for Kody. “I’m having a hard time feeling, like, losing respect for you,” Robyn tells him candidly.
Kody, grappling with his failed marriages, responds, “Robyn, I can’t even get it straight with you right now.” This interaction sets the tone for the emotional upheaval that defines the new season.
Christine’s New Chapter
Christine Brown, Kody’s ex-wife, introduces her new partner, David Woolley. Christine and David’s relationship marks a fresh start for her, as she ended her spiritual marriage to Kody in 2021.
In the trailer, Christine and David are seen together in a confessional interview, sharing their happiness. Their relationship is a new dynamic that will be explored throughout the season.
Janelle’s Legal Struggles
Janelle Brown, who separated from Kody in 2022, faces legal challenges regarding the family’s Coyote Pass property.
“I have actually thought about asking if he wants to buy me out,” Janelle admits, indicating her determination to move forward. However, with Kody uncommunicative, she feels the need to “lawyer up” to resolve the issue.
Meri’s Final Split
Kody’s first wife, Meri Brown, officially ended her relationship with him in early 2023. The aftermath of their split continues to unfold in the new season.
“It’s not divorce that sucks,” Kody tells Meri. “It’s marrying the wrong person.” Meri responds with frustration, noting it took Kody 32 years to acknowledge this.
Heartbreaking Loss
The new season also addresses the tragic passing of Janelle and Kody’s son, Garrison Brown, who died by suicide at the age of 25 in March 2024.
“Through the heartbreaking pain, the family navigates this incredible tragedy,” a press release states. The family unites to mourn and celebrate Garrison’s life, providing a poignant narrative to the season.
Kody’s Self-Reflection
Kody’s reflections on his failed marriages are filled with self-pity and confusion. “What did I do to deserve this? What did I do wrong?” he laments. These questions highlight his struggle to understand the breakdown of his relationships.
Despite the turmoil, Kody remains a central figure in the family, navigating the complex dynamics of his relationships with his ex-wives.
