Sister Wives celeb Kody Brown was the apple of four sets of eyes in the early days of the TLC series but time has a way of changing things. Veteran fans of Sister Wives know all too well how the wives often coddled their shared husband during the very beginning of the Sister Wives series.

Sister Wives: Kody Brown Once Had It Made?

Janelle Brown was a great fixer of things, especially when it came to finances. Meri Brown, in her role as the Sister Wives matriarch, seemed to offer strength to her shared husband. She backed him up when he set out to do something. Like taking on a fourth wife.

Christine Brown, who Kody refers to as the Sister Wives’ “fun wife,” treated him like a hungry kid coming home from school when he showed up. She waited on him, dishing out whatever he fancied eating at the time.

Then there’s Robyn, she swooned over the man she married for the longest time. Without Robyn Brown, the jealousy probably would have remained at a minimum. But, the drama brings them in, so despite whether you like Robyn or not, her presence seemed awfully important for keeping the viewers hooked.

It seemed that each wife fulfilled a need in this Sister Wives husband of four. This included Christine Brown’s mothering to the financial management of Janelle Brown. Meri acted as a life coach at times. Then of course there’s Robyn, who stayed so enamored by him that it seemed to help his ego. Well, fans agree that Christine also does okay when it comes to stroking Kody’s attention-craving behavior as well.
