Robyn Brown, the sole remaining wife of Kody Brown in the TLC series *Sister Wives*, recently claimed to feel gaslit by family members. A promotional clip released by TLC on January 1st shows Robyn expressing distress, stating, “I’ve been hearing some feedback from family about the accusations being made against me. I feel like I’ve been gaslit by some of the family members.” This statement refers to the manipulative tactic of making someone question their own sanity, a term derived from the 1936 play *Gas Light*.
The clip reveals Robyn’s emotional state, leaving viewers uncertain about the specific family members involved in this alleged gaslighting. Given the strained relationships between Robyn and Kody’s former wives, Janelle, Christine, and Meri, it’s likely the accusations originate from within this fractured family dynamic.
In a confessional, Kody acknowledges the “jealousy and dislike” directed toward Robyn from his ex-wives, framing it as a natural occurrence within plural marriage. He downplays his role in fostering this negativity, despite his controversial decision to legally divorce Meri to marry Robyn, a move that significantly altered the family’s structure and dynamics.
Robyn, in her own confessional, tearfully defends her intentions, emphasizing her desire for a unified family and her efforts to nurture Kody’s relationships with his children and other wives. She admits to having “too high of expectations” of her sister wives.
While Robyn expresses self-blame, many viewers and social media users hold Kody primarily responsible for the family’s disintegration, citing his clear favoritism towards Robyn as a major contributing factor to the conflict. The widespread recognition of Kody’s biased behavior, even among those unfamiliar with the show, underscores the significant impact his actions had on the family’s overall dynamic. The ongoing drama continues to unfold on *Sister Wives*, leaving the specifics of the gaslighting accusations and their impact on the family’s future yet to be fully revealed.
