Sister Wives star Kody Brown makes shock confession about his sexual activity before first marriage to Meri
TLC's Sister Wives concluded its 19th season with the fourth part of the One-on-One reunion episodes, where Kody Brown made an interesting revelation. Host Sukanya Krishnan hosted the reunion special, engaging in one-on-one interviews with each of the family members. Krishnan asked Brown, 56, who tied the knot with his first wife Meri in 1990 at just 21 years of age, if he had any other 'sexual experiences' before marrying Meri. 'There were other options that got close. I was a little bit wild, but I wasn't. I was being Mormon naughty,' Brown stated. When asked to clarify what that meant, Brown said, 'It means I would kiss and hug, but no actual intercourse.' Host Krishnan asked, 'So that's like first base, second base, third base, and no home run,' as Kody confirmed, 'No home run.' Krishnan asked Brown, 56, who tied the knot with his first wife Meri in 1990 at just 21 years of age, if he had any other 'sexual experiences' before marrying Meri. When she made another sports analogy about his past sex life, Kody said, 'You know out of respect for my wife, I'm going to quit discussing this with you. You guys can act like it's the world's business.' While Krishnan said, 'We're just having some fun,' Kody added, 'No, we just crossed the line so it's done.' Christine Brown, who was married to Kody from 1994 to 2021, when she was the first of Kody's four wives to leave him, speculated how close he was with his sole remaining wife, Robyn, before they wed in 2010. 'We've all seen their engagement photos and I just automatically think, huh, I wonder how close they got before they were married,' Christine said. When asked if she thought Kody and Robyn had pre-marital sex, Christine said, 'And he was super comfortable in her house, even walking into her bedroom. That's a lot of speculation.' If they did engage in pre-marital sex, Christine admitted it would have been, ''just yet another lie.' 'They lied about everything, so you know how close they were. The fact that he was always over there, come on. All they did was lie…Just not to be trusted,' she added. Robyn debunked Christine's claims, adding, 'He didn't kiss me until he asked me to marry him.' Christine Brown, who was married to Kody from 1994 to 2021, when she was the first of Kody's four wives to leave him, speculated how close he was with his sole remaining wife, Robyn, before they wed in 2010. 'And it wasn't a kiss, it was a stamp. You know, his face smashed mine. That was it, you know, it wasn't anything super sexy,' Robyn admitted. 'And it wasn't a kiss, it was a stamp. You know, his face smashed mine. That was it, you know, it wasn't anything super sexy,' Robyn admitted. 'He asked me to marry him. And we're sitting in his little fun sports car 'cause he can't live without him. And I said yes. And then he grabbed my face, went bam, like kiss me, bam. It was like this is now a done deal. We are engaged,' she said. When asked is there was any 'naughtiness afterwards,' Robyn admitted, 'There were chase kisses, little church kisses. But yeah, that's it.' When asked if there was, 'more than just a kiss,' she admitted, 'Oh, no, no, no, nothing. Little church kisses. Something you can do in front of your pastor, your Bishop or something.'

Sister Wives ' Janelle Says Kody & Robyn's Courtship Wasn't Appropriate
Originally appeared on E! Online Sometimes size really does matter. At least when it comes to the length of a relationship. Because while hindsight is 20/20, Sister Wives star Janelle Brown feels that if she'd had a bit more time to date Kody Brown before their 1993 vows, she may not have become the polygamist's second wife. "If I had a year with Kody, I'm not sure I would have married him, honestly," she revealed to host Sukanya Krishnan during the final installment of the TLC series' one-on-one special June 15. "I might have seen him for a little bit more of who he was, you know what I mean? Gotten sort of off the charm ride." Instead, reasoned the 56-year-old, who shares Logan Brown, 31, , 29, Hunter Brown, 28, Gabriel Brown, 23, and , 20, and her late son Garrison with the father of 18, she was taken by the saleman's "charisma" and hung on for nearly 30 years before announcing their split in 2022. "Regardless, I don't need to go back and trash everything that was," noted Janelle. "If I were to say, 'Oh, I'm really sorry I did all that,' would I be in this great place?" More from E!

(Kody's first wife announced their breakup in 2022 while third wife Christine Brown revealed they'd split in 2021.) While dating as a married man is a necessity in polygamy, Kody and his fourth—and sole remaining—wife Robyn Brown "had a very long courtship compared to the rest of us," Janelle noted. "It is not really appropriate for a married man to have a long courtship." And yet, she continued, he and the divorcée—already mom to Dayton Brown, Aurora Brown and Breanna Brown at that point—"actually courted, I think, for almost a year." Though to hear Kody tell it, he only needed a split second to know Robyn was his forever person. Describing their inital charged interaction at church—"We locked eyes and I couldn't break away," Kody has said—the patriarch noted that he fell hard after they shared a first dance. "I'm talking to her like we've known each other our whole lives," Kody described of the moment that took place with Christine and Meri in the room. "The kind of safety combined with just the depth of connection, she's very vulnerable and I was at the time and we just, there was a depth of connection that I do not believe I have ever had." He knew pretty quickly that his feelings were more intense than the ones he'd shared with his previous three spouses. "I noticed a marked difference from the beginning," acknowledged Kody. "I had no intentions of shifting away from it." And though he calls the idea that he and Robyn only wanted each other "Internet B.S." and "crappy commentary on our family," he admitted the connection was strong. As he recalled, "I'm sitting there with my journal going, 'God, what's going on? I'm already in love. I already have three wives.'" The intensity of his early courtship with Robyn—"I fell in love hard"—is just one truth Kody has shared this season. See what else he and his wives have recently divulged on the TLC series.

Sister Wives ' Christine Brown "Disgusted" by Kody Brown Relationship
Originally appeared on E! Online Christine Brown is looking back on her marriage to Kody Brown in shame. During the Sister Wives season 19 tell-all on May 25, Christine—who became the first of the patriarch's three exes to leave their plural marriage in 2021—reflected on her 25-year relationship with Kody, father of their kids Aspyn, 30, Mykelti, 28, Paedon, 26, Gwendlyn, 23, Ysabel, 21, and Truely, 15. "You realize I loved Kody, like, four years ago?" Christine told husband as they were packing to leave for filming. "So much of my life was so focused on him, and it makes me disgusted with myself." She then shared a key difference she noticed when comparing her and David's union to her past relationship with the father of 18, who remains married to Robyn Brown following his 2022 breakups from first wife Meri Brown and fellow ex Janelle Brown. "You're always here. You're always a constant. And I always know when you're here," Christine noted of David. "I never knew when Kody would be around. He kept us always in suspense. But not really." Christine also noted an apparent aspect about her past relationship with Kody that she finds "weird and embarrassing." "My life was just wrapped up in what Kody needed and what he wanted and what the family needed and wanted," she told host Sukanya Krishnan. "He didn't just do whatever we were doing."We had to change what we were doing to accommodate him. And that's not OK. That's not fair. That's making it so our lives are focused on him." She added, "And that's frustrating to me. And it's embarrassing that I lived it." More from E!

That's our biggest fight." Christine further addressed "weird and embarrassing' aspects of her and Kody's marriage during a one-on-one conversation with host Sukanya Krishnan. "My life was just wrapped up in what Kody needed and what he wanted and what the family needed and wanted," the 53-year-old shared. "He didn't just do whatever we were doing. We had to change what we were doing to accommodate him. And that's not OK. That's not fair. That's making it so our lives are focused on him." "And that's frustrating to me,' Christine continued. 'And it's embarrassing that I lived it." The former couple's conflicts were apparent to their daughter Gwendlyn, who recently noted she saw the signs that the relationship between her parents—who were never legally married—wasn't working. "I felt like they should have divorced for a while," she told Teen Vogue in an interview published May 14. 'I remember one time as a kid, I saw them arguing, and my first thought was, 'I hope they get a divorce.' What kid thinks that, right?" As for Kody, he is done with polygamy. "I don't want to be flippant with my answer, because we were devoted to this, but I'm not interested in plural marriage anymore," Kody told Robyn on an April episode of Sister Wives. "I don't want to pursue another woman because I don't want that headache—the questions, the struggles, the wonder about trust."
