Robyn Brown BLASTS Ex-Sister Wives as Phony, Horrible Role Models

Reading Time: 3 minutes

Robyn Brown is back on the attack.

On the latest episode of Sister Wives, the sole remaining spouse of Kody Brown took aim at Janelle Brown and Meri Brown, her former partners in polygamy and people she doesn’t believe are very often their true and authentic selves.

“I don’t really endorse fakeness,” Robyn said on air. “And like, ‘Okay, let’s pretend like everything’s Okay,’ when it’s not.”

(TLC)

Kody went on to back up his soulmate, stating for the cameras: “Robyn hates girl games. She reads nuance way different than me.”

These two confessions came after an awkward exchange with Janelle and Meri regarding the sale of their joint Coyote Pass property, which was eventually completed this past April — but which took a very long time to finalize.

On the aforementioned episode, all three of these parties arrive at the site to meet with the realtor, only for everyone to stay far away from each other amid the negotiation process and contract signing.

“They didn’t even say, ‘Hi,’ and they didn’t even say, ‘Bye,’” Meri said. “It was like, okay. I am invisible to you.”

Janelle had similar feelings about the meeting, saying to viewers:

“I think Robyn felt like she was going to be persecuted or attacked or something. And I’m like, ‘No, we could be adults here.’ But whatever.”

(TLC)

Elsewhere on this same installment, Robyn laid into her former sister wives for their supposed influences on Kody’s children.

“I think there’s some hurt feelings and misunderstandings and some influencing that’s been happening,” Robyn said in a conversation with Kody. “Some pretty intense influencing.”

For the record, Kody is barely on speaking terms with many of his kids.

Also for the record, Kody has taken responsibility for these severed relationships.

But Robyn told a different story on air.

(TLC)

“I don’t think parents actually completely realize how much little things they say actually influence the way their children think about the other parent,” Robyn continued in a confessional. “And in plural marriage, Dad’s not around the same amount as Mom.”

As of late, Kody hasn’t been around at all, with Janelle revealing in the November 9 episode of Sister that their oldest daughter Madison Brush hasn’t spoken to him in years.

“He doesn’t have any respect for boundaries,” Maddie explained on a 2024 episode of her The Authentic Society podcast of her decision to go no-contact with her father. “And you have to play by his rules, and I just don’t care to do that.”

So there we have it, from the lips of Kody’s daughter herself.

But you keep blaming these other women, Robyn. You keep doing you.

“I’m just exhausted and so tired of being blamed for how his kids feel about him. It’s his responsibility and not mine,” Christine said on the November 23 installment.

Agreed Janelle, in a separate confessional:

“Look, I wish I had a lot of influence on my adult children. Boy, things would be really different.”

At another point, Robyn suggested that the situation has been “very, very confusing” and challenging for his kids to understand, but even Kody then admitted:

“I had a lot of mean things to say about their mothers is part of the problem.”

Jill Freud Cause of Death: ‘Love Actually’ Star, Inspiration For …

Reading Time: 3 minutes

We have sad news to report out of London today:

Beloved actress Jill Freud, who is best known for her work in the beloved holiday romcom Love Actually, has passed away at the age of 98.

Freud may not have been a household name as a result of her acting, but she crossed paths with famous historical and cultural figures so frequently that she was basically the British answer to Forrest Gump.

News of her death comes courtesy of her daughter, Emma Freud:

“My beautiful 98-year-old mum has taken her final bow. After a loving evening — where we knew she was on her way — surrounded by children, grandchildren and pizza, she told us all to fuck off so she could go to sleep. And then she never woke up. Her final words were ‘I love you,’” Emma wrote on social media on Monday.

Born June Frewett, Jill adopted the stage name Jill Raymond early in her career and was usually known as Jill Freud after her marriage to Clement Freud, the grandson of Sigmund Freud.

As a teenager during World War II, she was evacuated from London to Oxford, where she eventually found work as a housekeeper at the Kilns, the house Lewis shared with his brother, Warnie.

Lewis was so impressed by hew character that he reportedly modeled the character Lucy in his Chronicles of Narnia series after Freud.

“I have never really met anything like her unselfishness and patience and kindness and shall feel deeply in her debt as long as I live,” Lewis wrote of Freued in a letter from 1945 (via The Guardian).

As an actress, Jill is best known for her final professional role, playing Hugh Grant’s housekeeper in Love Actually.

In her statement, Emma Freud wrote that Jill was a mentor to “hundreds of actors who loved her for her passion, her care, her shepherd’s pie, her devotion to regional theatre and her commitment to actors’ rights.”

She added that her mother “had the same lunch every day – a glass of red wine and a packet of crisps, and during Covid, aged 93, locked up with three other Freud gals, she took part in a tap class every morning.

“She was 98, mother of five, grandmother of 17, great-grandmother of seven — she was feisty, outrageous, kind, loving and mischievous,” Emma continued, adding:

“Lucky old heaven getting such a dazzling newcomer.”

Our thoughts go out to Jill Freud’s loved ones during this enormously difficult time.
