Robyn and Kody Brown have had quite a life together since getting spiritually married in 2010. The Sister Wives stars have had to face some drama, in recent episodes of the series, including a fight between Kody and Janelle Brown, his second of four wives, which caused him to admit he “hates” his life. His negative attitude sparked Robyn to worry that he may leave her in the future, making their lives even more intense than they already are.
“I just have this gut thing that’s like I’d like to run away from my life. You know, just escape, just change my name, disappear, be somebody else. I just… I hate my life right now,” Kody admitted, in one recent episode.
“It would absolutely devastate me if he decided to leave me. I mean, I know he has these thoughts,” Robyn also said, after finding out how her husband felt. “You can’t make anybody stick around or stay. I know he would regret it, leaving everything behind. I know it’s from pain. It’s not because he’s a selfish or bad person. It’s because he’s in pain.”
