Sister Wives season 19 co-star Mykelti Brown was pregnant with twins, and her broken family made it hard to include them all in her birthing plan. 28-year-old Mykelti is the daughter of polygamist patriarch Kody Brown and his third wife, Christine Brown. Kody had four wives in total, but Christine left Kody and the plural family in 2021. She has since remarried, but Mykelti is still close to her father and Kody’s other wives.

During Sister Wives season 19, Mykelti and her husband, Tony Pardron, give birth to her twins. Mykelti met Tony in 2015. He proposed on a hiking trail soon after, and they were married in December 2016. The couple already have a child together, and they were excited to welcome their twins. The only problem was that Mykelti wanted to invite Kody’s fourth wife, Kody Brown, but there was tension between her mother and Robyn.

Christine Brown & Robyn Brown Haven’t Spoken

They’ve Been At Several Events Together

Over the last few years, three of Kody’s wives have left their polygamist union, and he hasn’t had any contact with most of them since the break-ups. They’ve all been to several family functions together and have managed to ignore each other completely. In Sister Wives season 19, many of the Browns attended Mykelti’s casino-themed baby shower and awkwardly pretended not to see each other; they even attended a family wedding where they didn’t speak. It’s sad to see what has become of the once-loving family.

Mykelti & Robyn Are Close

They Bonded

While many of Kody’s other children were less than welcoming to Robyn, Mykelti bonded with Kody’s fourth wife and even lived with them for a while. During a Sister Wives season 19 interview, Mykelti explained that she was a teenager when Robyn joined the family, and Robyn made her feel special and seen at a time when she needed it. Christine and Kody’s former second wife, Janelle Brown, have both been clear that they want their children to have good relationships with their father, which, for Mykelti, includes Robyn.

Scary Birth Incident

Can Christine & Robyn Ever Be Friends?

Mykelti’s C-section was scheduled, and everyone showed up on the day of the procedure. When the nurses took Mykelti in to prepare for surgery, her heart rate started to spike, and she began to panic, but once her husband was allowed to be in the surgery room, she calmed down. During the surgery, Christine and Robyn sat in the waiting room together and avoided speaking to each other.

Thankfully, Mykelti and Tony took home two healthy babies, but the experience would have been better if more members of the Sister Wives family were on better terms. There was some hope that the birth would bring Christine and Robyn together, but that didn’t happen, and Christine and Robyn may never be friendly.
