Sister Wives: Why Robyn Always Wanted To Be Famous | Screen Rant
On Sister Wives, Kody Brown's fourth wife Robyn Brown is often perceived as chasing the limelight. When it comes to TLC fans, Robyn does not have a great support group, as most people who follow the show feel that she is at the root of all of the Brown family's issues. Before the show became popular, Robyn tried her luck in Hollywood, where she was a young starlet chasing a dream.
Kody's favorite wife is not the favorite amongst Sister Wives followers, who believe that she cries on cue. Robyn is the youngest of Kody's four wives and she is envied within the Brown family. While there are moments when Robyn has come across as a decent human being, a lot of Sister Wives viewers feel that she is manipulative and trying to be Kody's only wife. The worldwide COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the family's issues, which included Christine Brown leaving Kody for Utah and greener pastures. Robyn often comes across as playing the victim, and fans are tired of her complaining. While viewers may know her as "Sobbin' Robyn," the mother had grand dreams before she hit it big on TLC.
To many who watch Sister Wives, it has always seemed like Robyn has wanted the spotlight. For the last ten years, Sister Wives' Kody's fourth wife has graced the small screen via TLC, and she has capitalized on being recognizable. Whether she is reportedly drinking alcohol in Sedona or spotted shopping in Flagstaff with her husband, fans often snap pictures of her when she's out and about. While she may come across as prickly when fans approach her, it could be argued that she always wanted this type of life. Long before she married into the Brown family, Robyn made a name for herself as an extra on shows like Just Shoot Me, which aired in the late '90s.
On that show, her role was very minor, as she played a model for the show's fictional magazine, but she caught the acting bug quickly. Robyn also appeared on CMT's Countdown. Some viewers have wondered if Robyn is acting on Sister Wives, and suspect that her crying is an elaborate ruse. It isn't hard to argue that reality TV may not have been Robyn's original show business goal, but she has done well for herself on the series.
Whether or not Robyn had an agenda when it came to finding fame has yet to be determined. However, if fans' judgments are true, Robyn may have found herself a gold mine thanks to Sister Wives. Once the small bit of fame went to her head, it would have been hard for the favorite wife of Kody to let it go. One can only guess that she didn't get the memo that fame can be fleeting.
