A new Sister Wives preview shows Christine and Kody’s daughter Mykelti sharing her big news with the plural family. What emotional milestone did TLC cameras catch?

Season 16 filmed in 2020

One of the most confusing things about watching (and writing about!) Season 16 of Sister Wives is the timeline. Distractify speculates that the new season of the reality show was filmed during the fall of 2020, possibly September.

That means that things viewers are seeing happened at least a year ago, including the demise of Christine and Kody’s relationship. His third wife confirmed the end of their spiritual marriage in November, weeks before the new season premiered.

Due to the COVID pandemic surging at the time of filming, Mykelti and Tony appeared virtually via video chat. Christine gathers the family, including sister wives Robyn, Janelle, and Meri, around a big screen. Kody and some of his younger children are also present.

Ahead of the big reveal, Janelle says she has a ‘feeling’ what the video chat is about.

After greeting her family, Mykelti says she has something to tell them. Her husband Tony presents a pair of baby shoes, as Mykelti confirms, “We’re pregnant.”

The Brown family cheers the exciting news. “Mykelti and Tony are having a baby!” Christine exclaims in a confessional interview.

In the same confessional, Christine says, “This will be our third grandchild.” However, Mykelti is the first of Christine’s biological children to have a baby. Kody’s third wife explains that in the plural family, the wives all consider the grandchildren to be their own, regardless.

“And her being my biological daughter, maybe you’d think that it would mean something different. But it’s not,” Christine clarifies. Janelle’s daughter Maddie had the family’s first two grandchildren, Axel and Evie K.

People magazine has the exclusive preview with Mykelti’s big news. The outlet reports that Robyn Brown was at the baby’s birth, via Zoom. The couple welcomed daughter Avalon in April of 2021.
