Season 7 also hints that Kody will be trying to get a fifth wife. According to Christian Post, Kody’s latest wife will be much younger than his current spouses.
Fans suspect that if this is true, then this might bring in more tension to the Brown family, as the idea of a Robyn-centric marriage doesn’t sit well already with the others. So another wife entering the picture could mean things would get even messier.
There is no word yet on when the reality show will air, but TLC stated that it will premiere sometime this year.
Meanwhile, Kody and his wives have recently urged the court to uphold a ruling regarding Utah’s bigamy law that banned cohabitation, which violated the right to their religious freedom.
As per ABC News, the Browns insisted that their TLC reality show, albeit controversial, depicts polygamous unions as healthy monogamous ones. The family also argues that making such marriages a crime violates the right to privacy and freedom of religion.
Due to the family’s lawsuit, a three-judge panel of the 10th US Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver questioned Utah’s attorney as it heard arguments on the state’s appeal of a ruling that struck down key parts of a law prohibiting polygamy.
Any of the wives leaving would boost interest and ratings for the beleaguered show. Meri’s affair with Samuel was a ratings bonanza for the “tell all” episode.
Since her first publicised affair ended, Meri has not been tweeting much, preferring to maintain a low profile. That all changed with her new interest in a youthful member of her favorite ban, Van Lady Love. Her latest tweet was a delighted response to the fact that he wasn’t wearing underwear. Not quite what we would expect from an older Mormon type church lady, exactly. If this is any indication of things to come, we should be in for a wild and interesting ride for the upcoming season. Hopefully the fourth wife, who is so kind and caring and looks out for Meri, will be able to throw some cold water on the latest shenanigans and twitter flirting before it goes too far like last time. Meri’s love interests are like a wild fire, stomp it out here and it starts up over there. The fourth wife has her work cut out for her it seems.
