‘Sister Wives’ Season 16 One On One Part 2 Recap-Feb. 6
Last week on part one of Sister Wives: One on One, Kody’s relationship with Meri was addressed. It was revealed that she is staying for family. Though they have not been intimate in a decade, she still has hopes they can be one again. However, his trust is completely gone in Meri but Kody says he will take care of her forever. Meri opened up about Janelle and Christine having come in as wives. She admitted she was jealous and who she was most jealous of. The catfishing incident was revisited and this week, Robyn discusses being a target. Kody also opens up about his relationship with his sons after the pandemic.
Sister Wives and COVID
Sukanya Krishnan is back with the wives and Kody to discuss the pandemic rules Kody had set forth. They show Christine’s initial reaction to discovering that Robyn and Kody had a nanny. She wanted to know what exactly did the nanny do that enabled her to be allowed in their home. To be clear, this was spawned because Ysabel wanted to see her siblings and couldn’t. Yet an outside nanny was welcomed. Christine felt like she was untrusted when she had been fully transparent with her daily operations.
Sukanya asks Robyn why the “nanny” rules were not out sooner. She claims she asked sooner but Kody was very grumpy. He also claimed no one would have followed the rules, especially the kids. Christine said she did not care to get back together with everyone. However, she knew her kids did so she would do whatever it took. Kody would come by for a few hours every week. It was not enough so they would go out of town where they were filled with love. In Kody’s mind, he had two households that would not abide by his rules.
In Robyn’s home, everyone, including the nanny complied. The other wives chose their children and wanted to protect them. Kody still maintains the wives should have not protected their kids 18+. Janelle did feel she had to choose and did not want to force them out into the world during a pandemic. What’s going on with Kody, Gabe, and Garrison?
A Family Divided
He is currently not speaking to Gabe and Garrison. They speak occasionally but that is it. Kody feels he was severely disrespected by his sons. They should have moved out in order for him to move back in. Admittedly, Kody thinks they all need therapy. In Janelle’s opinion, the boys don’t necessarily feel they want to give respect to their dad. It is not owed and it is a two-way street. Kody also did not always trust Gabe and Garrison when they said they were following the rules. The truth is they would say they were following his rules when they were in fact lying. They have since moved out.
Janelle admits several of Kody’s kids are at odds with him over his pandemic rules. He does want his kids around him, but he does not believe they respect his leadership. It now circles back to everyone getting the rules so they can gather for the holidays 2020. Christine and Janelle decided to go to Utah for Thanksgiving instead. Kody claims he did not know how he felt. Christine thinks Kody was sad and frustrated at the moment. Meri was frustrated because she had been asking for it.
Janelle says the rules came out ten days to two weeks prior to the holiday and her boys said they were not doing it. Sukanya asks why Kody did not follow Janelle when she got up and angrily left. She was so mad because she felt Kody did not trust her. Yet, Kody felt there was no loyalty on her behalf so he was not about to chase her.
Sister Wives Sacrifices
Kody says Janelle was passive with the boys whereas Christine was just moving out. He proceeds to call them “jackwagons.” Circling back to Thanksgiving, Christine had other kids she needed to see and that was all she cared about. In regards to her relationship with Janelle, they made it no secret that they hung out during the pandemic. Christine chose Janelle over Kody because they just had a special relationship. Kody equated them to a clique and his negativity was making Janelle crazy.
Janelle admitted she went where she and her family were wanted. Everyone was welcomed but they did not want to be there because Janelle and Christine were not compliant. Initially, they did not get along because Janelle thought Christine was a princess. She was a buffer for Janelle and Meri though because it was no longer Meri against Janelle which was great. Sukanya asks Christine if there are parallels between Janelle and Kody’s marriage if she is happy with Kody.
Christine asked Janelle if she will stay and she said he is a great dad and has no plans on leaving. Kody says they are not in sync and they do not partner well. They are good friends and get along well, it is a committed relationship. Is he in love with Janelle? Admittedly, neither one of them would say they were if they were being honest. Janelle says they are best friends.
Filling the Tank And Basement Wives
Asking if they are intimate, Janelle claims they are fine and leaves it at that. Christine claims she does not think Janelle needs him to fill her tank. She is a strong woman and needs things different than Christine does. Christine needs to be intimate with her husband. Seemingly, that is not important for Janelle. Onto Christine being a basement wife. This is something she addressed over the past two seasons. She lived downstairs in their polygamy home in Utah while raising their kids.
Christine put everyone first and when she took it up with Kody, he said she was breaking the agreement. Apparently, she never brought it up to anyone but Kody. Robyn admits she and her kids have never fully felt accepted by Janelle, Christine, and their kids. Kody claims Robyn has picked up the slack for where Christine has shrugged. However, Christine was the one who did so much for about ten years. She did not just immediately drop off.
Robyn claims her youngest does not remember the names of her siblings and adds she is an easy target. Mainly because she gets along with Kody. When she joined the family, she told her kids they would accept the other wives as mothers. They would also follow all of the rules and such.
Sister Wives Blame Game
Robyn says it is hard to get phone calls from the kids blaming her for the rules. She would help the kids be with their father or do what they needed any time. Then she claims she has never cried so much in an interview before. In her life, she has never felt so much unsafe space as she has this past year. Aside from Meri, Kody does not think the other women would want to be Robyn’s friend. Robyn actually called Janelle and asked if they could develop a good sister wife relationship. She said she would have to think about that.
Janelle admits she felt she was put on the spot. With Christine, it was just natural as they were raising kids together. Admittedly, she is the only one having a fully functioning relationship with Kody. That cannot be easy for the other wives to watch. Robyn keeps breaking down and wonders how she will get through this interview. As for Christine, Robyn has always wanted her and Kody’s relationship to be strong. She wishes Christine had kept trying and claims they are divorced.
Robyn says they are not because the marriage was done by their church officials and it has not been properly granted. According to Christine, she left that church a long time ago and God is fine if she just wants to be happy. Kody says she is free of that “yolk of bondage” and Christine maintains they are divorced.
Next week on part three of Sister Wives: One on One, Kody admits he is questioning his own polygamy as is Janelle and Meri. Kody finally watches the footage of Christine choosing to say goodbye to him as the divorce fully comes to light. Watch it Sunday on TLC.

Its becoming very difficult to watch “Sobbin Robin”. She answers almost every question with dabbing at her eyes and playing the victim. It comes across as a bit dishonest. As to her appearance, her hair is terrible and really accentuates her perfectly square face and jaw. Her neck looks deformed and she is certainly no beauty or intellectual personality. Not saying much, but she is the least attractive of the “Sister wives”
I think robbin is play like ballin and she is not pretty at all the crying is a act it nust makes her uglier
