Despite fans’ growing distaste for Robyn Brown, there have been moments where Sister Wives viewers took her side.
It doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, it’s generally noteworthy. Recently, Redditors discussed a particular Sister Wives scene that really made them feel for Kody Brown‘s fourth wife.
What exactly happened?
Fans appreciate Robyn Brown’s parenting in one episode
Although Robyn Brown is one of the least favorite cast members, there have been instances when viewers sympathized with her. One such case is when the family lived in Las Vegas and Meri wanted to take Solomon on a road trip.
Solomon was still very small at the time and Robyn didn’t think it was appropriate. He was struggling with some level of separation anxiety, especially at night. The situation made Meri feel dejected, but fans agreed with Robyn’s stance.
“He’s weird….. at night,” one Redditor titled their thread, referencing a quote from the show. “No matter how many times I rewatch this show … I visibly cringe when Meri asks Kody and Robyn to take Solomon to Utah with her when she’s going to see Le on. And while I’m cringing, I’m also laughing because it’s just SO awkward and Robyn’s response is hilarious. It’s a Top 10 Awkward Moment for me for sure. So bad. ETA: This is one of the very few times I agree with Robyn. She absolutely made the right decision for Sol. It is still such an awkward, cringey scene!”
Other Redditors chimed in and readily agreed with the OP’s assessment. Even if the entire exchange was very awkward.
“I’m on Team Robyn on this one. Solomon was very young, generally shy and clingy, and about to have to share Mom’s attention with ‘Baby Sister,’” another user wrote. “Robyn made the right decision and Meri was able to bring Breanna, who seemed to have fun.”
Other Redditors thought that Meri really just wanted to use Solomon as a buffer since tensions were high with Leon at the time.
Meri was still reeling from the catfish situation
On Reddit, many users also noted that this was just after Meri Brown got caught up in the catfishing situation. Leon was furious with Meri and they were barely speaking to one another.
“It was so inappropriate of Meri to even try to use Sol as a buffer. Little children are not a balm for our adult issues that need to be smoothed over,” a Reddit user added.
Ultimately, Meri did take Breanna on the trip and everything seemed alright in the end. And this remains one of the few situations where Sister Wives viewers sided with Robyn Brown.
What do you think about the situation? Do you think Robyn was right to keep Solomon at home? Share your thoughts and opinions in the comments.
