‘Sister Wives’: Was Robyn Brown Penniless When She First Eyed Kody Brown?

Sister Wives star Robyn Brown joined Kody Brown in marriage but what did she bring with her by way of fiances to her new family life? Fans of the TLC reality series know that Robyn Brown divorced her first husband. But her finances as a single parent of three remained under wraps when she entered the Sister Wives family.

It seems the Sister Wives adults all pool their assets, including paychecks. Then they use one giant cookie jar to disperse the money to all their bills. So, did Robyn enter this plural marriage with any assets?

Robyn Brown’s set-up when she first became introduced to the Sister Wives patriarch is unknown. Information such as if she rented or owned a home never surfaced on the show.

Basically, the only info released for the sake of the storylines is that she lived about 3-hours away by car from the Brown family before she moved to Lehi to be closer to Kody.

A Hint She Lacked Assets?

Something Robyn Brown said in a book the Sister Wives wrote years ago offers a hint into Robyn’s finances. When Kody met his future wife, she was a divorced single mother of three living in a different part of Utah.

Robyn attended a party at her cousin’s house and there she met her future husband, Kody Brown. Reba, Robyn’s cousin called Robyn and suggested she come back to Lehi for a visit. Kody Brown showed some interest in her and Reba thought this future Sister Wives bride should get to know him.

So,  after much struggling with herself over pursuing a man with three wives. Robyn agreed to come. While Robyn Brown wanted to become a wife in a plural marriage, she never saw herself as wife number four. It seems most men in their church have two wives and while a few have three, four wives are pretty rare.
