Kody Brownthinks some of the sister wives are conspiring against him.
“I think they’re trying to shut me out because they’re mad at me,” Kody, 54, said.
He claimed to have “reached out to basically everybody,” includinghis estranged sons with Janelle. But he believes his adult sons with Janelle are “making up stories in their mind because they’re not talking to me.”
“Everybody’s got some story about how dad’s a bad guy, but we’re just having two groups at Christmas,” he said. “Listen, I was threatening to do this last Christmas.”
“What I gather from the things Janelle was throwing at me is that everybody is sort of making up a story about me and they’re talking to each other but they’re not talking to me about it,” he continued. “And now, they’re all mad at me.”

Meri then noted how Janelle originally “wasn’t going to be the in-between” for Christine, 51, and Kody. And while Kody wished Janelle wouldn’t do that, he said of his second wife: “She’s colluding with them.”
As Meri questioned whether Kody actually believed that Janelle and Christine were “colluding” against him, the family head said he “absolutely” felt this was the case. But Meri, despite calling Janelle and Christine’s recent behaviors “weird,” didn’t exactly agree with Kody’s take.
“Kody feels pretty angry and whenever you’re angry, you’re not gonna see any other perspective. You’ve got blinders on,” she told cameras. “But playing Devil’s advocate, maybe Janelle’s not colluding. I mean, when you use a word collude and when Kody uses it, like, it means everybody is batting up against him. And maybe she’s not doing that.”
From Kody’s perspective, “Christine and Janelle are doing everything they can to make it so that I’m not the head of the family, which is fine.”
Christine, however, told the cameras that she became the head of her household “out of necessity.”

“I was the one that my kids would listen to and I was the one my kids talked to,” she continued. “And if they needed to feel love or security, acceptance, they got that from me.”
This prompted Kody to declare he would “rather just be around people who really want to be around me,” saying he’s “not interested” in reaching out to Janelle, specifically right now, following their big fight.
