'Sister Wives' Polygamist Kody Brown Expecting a Baby With Fourth Wife Robyn

By Christine Fenno Posted Apr 10th 2011 10:16AM

When proud polygamist Kody Brown, of the TLC reality series 'Sister Wives,' married his fourth wife back in May, both newlyweds had their hands full: Kody, 43, was already the father of 13 children with his first three wives, while Robyn, 31, was a single mother of three.

Now, news is breaking this weekend that a 17th child is on the way. That's right, Robyn (pictured at far right) is expecting her first baby with Kody.

"You should have seen the look on his face when we found out," Robyn told People.com. "It was priceless."

"I'm overjoyed," declares Kody about the pregnancy. "This connects Robyn and I together in a way that nobody can take away."

The newest addition to the brood is due in October 2011. During the first season, Robyn was a "fiance" just getting to know Kody and the "sister wives," and she married into the polygamist family when she exchanged vows with Kody in May 2010.

The fundamentalist Mormon family is now living together in Las Vegas, where they moved from Utah earlier this year. When 'Sister Wives' first aired on TLC, an investigation got underway putting the Browns at risk of federal bigamy charges (none were brought, according to Meri -- Kody's first, and only legal, wife).

Of relocating his large family to Las Vegas, Kody has said, "We've met a lot of really tolerant, open-minded people that have been friendly to us and just said, 'Welcome to Vegas.' They've literally said, 'We like having you here.'"

As Robyn looks forward to delivering the baby this fall, she hopes her perfect scenario comes to pass. "If Kody had things his way, he'd have me go to the hospital," she says. "But I just like having home births. I'm not big into sitting around in a hospital."

HOW IS HAVING MORE THAN 1 WIFE LEGAL ANYWHERE. AND TO PUT IT ON TV IS JUST WRONG. DO YOU PEOPLE REALLY WATCH THIS STUPID SHOW. LITTLE CHARLIE SITTING THERE NEXT TO YOU AND SAYS MOMMY WHEN I GET MARRIED CAN I HAVE MORE THAN ONE WIFE. MAKES ME SICK.

Actually, if anyone out there reads their Bible, they would know there is nothing in God's Word stating polygamy is a sin. So congrats on the baby. How lucky to have so many people to love him/her. God bless.

By YOU'RE the idiot!

It amazes me how people write in to call others idiots, but are too ignorant to even know the easiest grammar. When you intend to say "you are", the correct contraction is "you're", not "your". This is not that hard! Stop calling others idiots, get yourself an elementary grammar book, and stfu. Idiots.

I am happy for Robyn and Kody and the Sister Wives. They seem to like their lifestyle. It is certainly a better lifestyle than one woman having 8 kids by 8 different daddies and living on welfare. (Watch Maury.) Polygamy is the Brown Family's CHOICE and it works for them. It does, however, drive the Mormons nuts, which is why they were run out of Utah. You can be a Fundamentalist in Utah, but you can't TALK about it, you see. We tolerate all the other religious cults out there (see: Amish (no school after 8th grade), Islam (cover up thyself, Woman), etc.,) why not tolerate polygamy? Making it legal would certainly cut down on welfare and Medicaid fraud by the Fundamentalists.

Let's face it, this guy has a harem...how is he any different than a Saudi shiek? This "lifestyle" is designed to give all the power to the man. He can bring as many women as he wants into the home and have sex with a different woman every night. Doesn't seem very empowering for the women at all. Sure the women chose this "lifestyle" but at what cost to their futures and to their self esteem when Kody gets bored with them and goes out and finds another woman younger, thinner and prettier than them. I find this show to be insulting and repulsive.

By jocelyn

I think they need to stop having all these kids. Robyn does not even have a job it is Janelle and Kody that make the money. If I were Janelle I would put my foot down.

By Rosi

that little pis..r Kody needs to cut off his little Peter. enough is enough. These stupid women work their arses off for a regular scr.w, let the lazy bastardo get a job that pays enough to support all of them in style and we will see that his baby making peter is out of business.

By Idyllic Idiocy

Get these moronic Mormons off tv. Just giving them publicity is falling into their little trap of pretending this is a normal lifestyle. IT IS NOT NORMAL!!

By Bubbles

Talk about some LOW self esteem! Should re-name this show DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES!!!! Too bad the name is already taken. That guy is an IDIOT and so are the pathetic women that 'married' him.

By Michelle

There is something seriously wrong with these women... They can except being "sloppy" second, third and fourth... They must think very little of themselves to live in the life style...

By truly disgusting

People who find this kind of nasty behavior acceptable are nothing but a bunch freaks. This man, bedding those nasty -ss ugly -itches, should be castrated. Yuck!

By DeeDee

TO KELI: So it wouldn't matter to you if your husband was going to start this marrying other women and impregnating them? It wouldn't matter to you at all? It wouldn't upset you that your husband was sexing it up with a much younger female in the household but she was part of his harem?

Lots of power to you girl?

By dpbeach03

I don't really care what these people do, but it IS against the law in this country, and if they didn't expect backlash, why be "reality stars"? It will have repercussions on them and, unfortunately, their children. Did none of them think? The appeal of quick money and fame has led to the filming of "different", illegal, sometimes outrageous lifestyle choices. The Goslin's, teenage mothers and fathers, drug addicts, stupid and promiscuous NJ 20 yo, now polygamists. What do they expect? What a lot of these people do is against the law. The people that film it should be held to the same standard as the people that see a crime and fail to report it. They are not journalist, just voyeurs. The people that watch and approve of them are no less.

By vickie

Knowing that the dipstick is going into others is just gross...I think it takes a certain kind of woman to accept this ....what's really in it for her....I don't believe it's real love they have ..It's more like an acceptance into a cult like situation...when will it end?????????

By Bruce Robbins

This whole thing is simple. It's all about money. TLC will air anything that gets people to watch whatever garbage they can get sponsors for. They don't care one iota for what anyone thinks, as long as the sponsors can sell their stuff. Watch what they are selling, and if you don't like the program, don't buy the product.
It's really just as simple as that!

By Vicky

Pr**k. Mr. Me Me Me. Bet he can't tell you 5 likes and dislikes of each of his children. He's to busy taking care of his own d**k. Stupid s**mbag. Oh yeah and these women are idiots, there's no way this works for them. B**lsh*t.
