Sister Wives 

Fans Haven’t Forgotten The Time Kody And Robyn Brown Were Caught In A Big Lie

Robyn and Kody Brown have had their share of controversies but there is one lie they told that fans are still talking about today.

Kody Brown and his only remaining wife, Robyn Brown have been a part of storylines that left fans confused since Sister Wives premiered in 2010. From choosing to spend time with his apparently favorite wife, Robyn, and family during the pandemic to the decisions the family has made, some of the drama often seems unbelievable.

Dramatic storylines coupled with speeches about purity, wholesomeness, following the church’s rules, and the like are what kept viewers coming back for more. It was not that viewers were looking for a reality show where Kody’s then-wives, Christine Brown, Meri Brown, Janelle Brown, and Robyn would follow his every word. Instead, it was far more entertaining when their lives contradicted what Kody claimed the family stood for.

Because of this, when lies such as the family was forced to leave Utah, Robyn was not even remotely as sick as she and Kody claimed when she contracted COVID, or perhaps the biggest of all, that Kody did not have a favorite wife, fans became invested. And when fans are invested, they do not forget a thing, specifically if lies are involved.

The Lie That Kody And Robyn Brown Told

Kody and Robyn have stated several times on Sister Wives that they do not drink. In fact, when the wives went to San Francisco and wound up at a pub, Robyn refused to have a beer. When Kody went to a bar with his brothers, he just drank water. As such, this seemed to be a legit statement.

But when fans spotted the couple out at a local mall during the holidays of 2022, Robyn and Kody were clearly drinking alcohol. As such, they were again, caught in a lie.

While shopping at a mall in Arizona in December 2022, Kody and Robyn were spotted by Sister Wives’ fans. The two took a break from shopping and walked into a restaurant. They placed an order and what was brought out for them was what looked like a glass of sparkling wine for Robyn and a beer for Kody.

If that is indeed what these beverages were, they have alcohol in them. As such, it appears that either the two have decided to live a more relaxed lifestyle now that the other three wives are no longer in the picture, or, they drank alcohol all along and just wanted to make themselves look good for the camera.

What the truth is, is something only these two know.

Fans Are Not Sure If Kody And Robyn Brown Changed Their Lifestyle Or Just Want To Hide It

At the beginning of the series, it appeared that the family followed their religion more closely than they did in the later episodes. As such, some fans believe imbibing may be a result of the more lax approach to Mormonism.

However, others feel that Robyn and Kody have drunk alcohol regularly over the years and that it is just one of the facts they want buried to preserve the personas they wanted to portray on Sister Wives.

“I don’t know that they’re opposed to drinking alcohol,” one Reddit user wrote. “I seem to remember at least one “girls’ day out” when they all had wine, and I think they’ve even imbibed around their own dining room tables. They practice ‘cafeteria-style’ Mormonism (making it up as they go along).”

Another user explained, “A lot has changed over the course of the show. They broke ties with the religious group they grew up/got married in. They’ve posted pictures where they’re sitting around a dinner table with mojitos, Moscow mules, wine, beer, etc.”

“I’ve read stories about them from servers when they lived in Vegas. Apparently, they go out often, and they drink quite a bit. I’ve read that Kody, Christine, and Robyn all drink pretty heavily when they go out,” a third Reddit user stated.

Whether they have recently changed or have just been less careful as of late, it is clear that Robyn and Kody do drink. And if this is the case, it begs the question of why they spoke out against it over the course of the series when they were clearly enjoying wine or beer themselves.

Why Kody And Robyn Brown Have Spoken Out Against Drinking Alcohol In The Past

As Mormons, Kody and Robyn were not supposed to drink alcohol. As such, when the kids in the family became of age and started drinking, speeches were given about why it should be abstained from.

Part of that desire to keep up the facade that neither Kody nor Robyn drank could come from some issues with alcohol experienced in the past.

Robyn was previously married before she met Kody. As such, divorce is not something new for some of Kody’s wives, ex or not. As part of her divorce settlement, according to Starcasm, Robyn had to agree to not “consume excessive amounts of alcohol” around the children.

Since her ex-husband David Jessop gave up his parental rights, that would mean essentially no drinking around the kids.

Perhaps, Kody wanted to support Robyn and just made a blanket rule that no one in the family should drink. It has also been alleged that alcohol could have been a factor in the problems Robyn had in her first marriage.

But whatever the reason may be, it was made clear time and again during Sister Wives that drinking alcohol was not something Robyn and Kody believed in. That is, apparently, until recently.
