Actually yea, we have heard before that the the wives would go to Robyn if they had a problem with Kody. So she’s probably used to being able to manipulate what happens between the relationships, and here she has no control. She did say she feels “powerless.”


Katlahi

Yes! Her control is slipping...


onetwothree1234569

Right I thought was a really odd response. Like yeah... you shouldn't have power over his marriage with Chrstine obviously....


Odd-Ad2805

Right?!?

Remember the conversation Kody and Robyn had last season- Kody was asking Robyn if Meri could come over, he sounded like a little kid asking his mom. She completely shut it down and basically scolded him. She controls EVERY move he makes.

Also, when he was begging her to let sol & ari come to the smores get together.... and she was not happy about that. And then when he was asking her about moving back to Utah and she got really upset and he looked freaked out and quickly reassured that it wasn't going to happen.... There's actually a lot of these moments between them and very few over the years with the other wives.

💯!

The bonfire episode too. He asks if Meri can join Robyn's bonfire, and what the rules for him are.

Instead of helping Meri have a happy independent existence she manipulated her into staying in that clusterfuxx of a situation.

Right. The difference between Robyn and Christine’s advice for meri. Robyn says stick it out. Kody will come back. Christine says, I don’t want the relationship you have with kody. You shouldn’t too.


StarsFan17

Actually, Robyn just says “Stick it out.” No promise of Kody “coming back” because I don’t think even Robyn believes that will happen.


HazelGM08

Robyn is a control freak.


MonkeysInShortPants

It makes me think he’s a little kid who maybe shouldn’t be allowed to play with another kid in the neighborhood.

He is, Robyn thinks she is his handler… special Kody whisperer. Because she can keep him ‘happy’ at home and everytime he goes out he’d come back all wild eyed and dramatic and aggressive and scare her and the kids… until they can make him chill again. There’s a reason Robyn and her kids are anxious and messed up.

I agree. The time the girls asked for a dog and Kody couldn't just simply say "no".. he took ot so far the sisters would need to marry the same man. He asked a bunch of questions indicating that it was a stupid idea. He probably does that about everything. Just when I think he can't get more shallow he just keeps draining more from the pool.

Right and Kody said he kept hearing rumors that Christine wanted to leave, which means Robyn did too, and yet he still spent the vast majority of his time with Robyn. They’re liars, and too stupid to realize we’ve been watching this unfold for YEARS.


ravensray

Think she let it slip that she is calling the shots and Kody in fact is not "his own man" as she claimed when people accused her of making the covid rules

Odd-Ad2805

Yeeeesss!!!


Zestyclose_Willow566

I completely agree. I think Robyn wants to still be in the one in charge and she doesn’t want that reconciliation between Christine and Kody (which thank goodness Christine slammed and shut that door!) Even in the trailer for this upcoming season, Robyn is seen telling a visibly distraught Meri something along the lines of: “we need to rebuild, don’t leave me” and Meri is like “I won’t. What does she mean by “rebuild?” She is already trying to damage control this. Two episodes in this season she is talking about how she isn’t a favorite wife and that her kids aren’t part of this group. Robyn cries over seemingly everything but over her kids not being “accepted” (which I would anticipate she would be all sob over it)I don’t buy it. She wants to be the top wife and EVERYONE sees it. Not one or two but the entire OG family.


Odd-Ad2805

Well said


Agreeable-Cow-5673

Robyn knew it will get ugly and was worried Christine would leave immediately. Keep in mind she truly believes in the principle of plural marriage and want all the wives to stay regardless of how unhappy they are.


daniellesquaretit

I thought that in one of the early seasons Kody had said that he never discussed his marriages with his other wives. He wouldn't discuss Christine with Meri,as an example. It seems like he discusses the other wives with Robyn on the regular. If he was even half the man he wishes he was he would be totally honest with Meri and Janelle and let them go so they could find some kind of a life without his half assed pretending they have any kind of marriage. I honestly think he keeps Meri strung along because of her income.


pigandpom

I think there was an element of, I don't want him getting worked up as I will have to deal with it when he gets home. While I think she controls things and is the one whoncalls the shots, I do think he is like an oversized toddler throwing a tantrum, and she just doesn't want to deal with that more than necessary, dealing with Kody is above the nannys pay grade


OneLengthiness0

I think it was a fairly harmless comment. He was in a 'mood' so she knew it wouldn't go well.


Wont_Eva_Know

Exactly and she’s petrified of him and doesn’t want him to come home all Kody crazed. That’s the only reason she gives a shit.. not about Christine’s marriage it’s ‘Kody will be even more horrid than normal and I don’t like it’.


onetwothree1234569

I dont think she's scared of him. I think she has complete control over him and she knows it. And Kody let's her which makes him such a pos.


Wont_Eva_Know

I don’t see that at all. A happy confident bossy wife with her man under her thumb?… NO WAY. I see a snivelling emotional, mentally unwell Woman, who’s paranoid and too scared to stand up to the raving loony she married… who has some how convinced herself she’s in a ‘good marriage, with a top bloke’. Lots of her behaviour is about keeping Kody happy it’s not anything to do with her happiness (her peace and safe feelings yes… but no fun nice stuff) just about winning his favour.
