Following his initial misbehavior towards his first wife Robyn Brown, Kody Brown had raised quite a lot of eyebrows. However, the real game began when he admitted his misbehavior and claimed to be embarrassed, while threatening the rest of his wives and children for aiming their rage towards his apparent favorite wife, Robyn.

These constant mood swings and changes of opinions turned Brown into one of the most hated TV personalities, and fans wanted him to be fired from the show. 

Kody Brown’s Repeated Misbehavior and Threats on Sister Wives

The renowned reality TV series Sister Wives has captivated audiences for over a decade, with its intention to set an example of polygamy in real-time. Centered around Kody Brown as the star of the show, the reality series has been drawing audiences with Brown’s controversial decisions as well as dramatic behavior towards his wives and children. 

Over the course of 19 seasons so far, Kody Brown’s antics have sparked outrage among fans and family. From his volatile mood swings to his misguided threats, Brown has often found himself in hot water. Initially beginning with his misbehavior towards his first wife Robyn, the TLC personality ruffled feathers after he openly admitted to his missteps, during a session of the Tell-All.

Although this public display of embarrassment about his behavior was supposed to melt hearts and reinstate his place among fans, it instead added fuel to the fire. For fans, his embarrassment wasn’t enough, after how he behaved with Robyn. Therefore, after he failed to gain viewers’ sympathy, Brown aimed his aggression towards his other wives and children who had previously criticized Robyn.

Well, in a sudden change of mood, Kody Brown shockingly portrayed alleged favoritism towards Robyn, while threatening his other wives and children for expressing frustration over Robyn’s perceived special treatment. This sudden behavior change left many shaking their heads while questioning not just Brown’s decisions, but also his behavior towards his family.

Eventually, as the show progressed, Brown’s behavior transformed him from a family patriarch to one of television’s most reviled personalities.

Fans Want the Controversial Patriarch of Sister Wives Fired  

As Kody Brown’s reputation plummeted, fans began expressing their desire to see him removed from the show. Social media got ablaze with calls for TLC to cut ties with the controversial figure, with many viewers expressing that his presence is damaging the family’s dynamic—and Sister Wives’ integrity.

Taking to Reddit, several users voiced their opinion on how Kody Brown has turned narcissistic while also addressing his alleged comments about hitting his wives on TV, if needed. Thereafter, Brown’s threats, repeated misbehavior and his supposed comments about domestic abuse caused an uproar, with fans asking for TLC to fire the reality TV star. 

However, TLC seems to be fine with the Sister Wives patriarch throwing tantrums, and even threatening his family with physical abuse. Perhaps, based on how Kody Brown has been the one to attract and retain audiences with his controversial and dramatic behavior, the network is inclined to keep him, rather than being done with the star. 

Sister Wives is currently available to watch on Discovery+.
