‘Sister Wives’: Mykelti Padron Filming To Soften Kody’s Image?
Word has been going around that Mykelti Padron was in Flagstaff filming the new season of Sister Wives. There are a lot of questions surrounding what this means for the series. Will there be a dramatic time jump? Why has she suddenly chosen to film now after only briefly appearing in the recent seasons? One answer could have to do with her father and his tarnished image.
Kody Rocks The Boat On Sister Wives
Season 16 was particularly rough for the Brown family but really did not bode well for patriarch Kody. He had created all of these pandemic protocols when Covid hit in Season 15. They were extremely stringent which actually damaged his relationships with two of his wives plus some children. He was not visiting Janelle nor Christine for he felt their behavior was reckless. Furthermore, he believed that Janelle’s children were disobedient. As for Meri, their marriage was nothing more than a friendship so she was pretty much left on her own. Then, the most recent season started and it was a mess.
Prior to it starting, his third wife, Christine announced her departure from the family. Early on in the episodes, their daughter Ysabel needed life-changing scoliosis surgery which he had pushed back. This was a big issue with fans as they felt he was being cold and unfeeling. Following this, his tension with his sons Gabe and Garrison boiled over. Finally, he withdrew the intimacy from his marriage to Christine and it was just enough for viewers. A Reddit thread was even started asking for him to not return for another season. How could he redeem himself and keep the show alive for another year?
Doing Damage Control
It is unclear what role Christine will play in the upcoming Sister Wives season since she now lives in Utah. More so, Kody has admitted that he and his sons are struggling and need therapy. So, how does he redeem himself and the show as a whole? His daughter with Christine, Mykelti recently showed off a bevy of photos on Instagram. They were of him, his fourth wife Robyn, and their kids with Mykelti’s daughter, Avalon. It showed that he was connected to at least one grandchild. Now, she is expecting twins and has apparently been filming in Flagstaff recently. The last time she was seen on the show was for her baby shower and now Avalon is one.
No one is quite certain what is going on with her filming as Sister Wives is usually a year or so behind. There are some guesses that there may be a time jump. Yet what is Mykelti doing since she has not filmed all that much? Plus, she is pregnant and traveling to and from Flagstaff in the summer heat. Some believe it is for the money while there is a chance she is doing it to help her dad. Showing him as a happy-go-lucky grandfather with baby Avalon could be the damage control the show needs. Additionally, it will make him look like the warm father figure he was when the series started in 2010. Whether it will work is yet to be seen.
Do you think Avalon can help soften viewers to Kody? Let us know in the comments below.
