Sister Wives star Kody Brown was expecting to be celebrating a special moment in 2021. Instead, he found himself heartbroken after his latest love interest turned down his proposal.
The 49-year-old husband of three was rejected by a 25-year-old woman he was hoping would be the newest member of his family. Kody was married to four women up until his divorce from first wife, Meri Brown. He is still in relationships with Robyn, Christine, and Janelle. Robyn is his only legal spouse after he divorced Meri to marry her. Christine and Janelle are "spiritual partners."
Kody allegedly met the new prospect, a young divorced mother of two, a few months prior. She seemed interested in Kody and spent some time with him, but when a proposal came, she went.

Kody Brown won't be going back to having four wives right now, despite his attempts to do so. The 49-year-old Sister Wives star reportedly proposed to a 25-year-old woman, but he was turned down, according to Life & Style.
"He's heartbroken," an insider shared.
"He had his sights set on her as a sister wife replacement for his first wife Meri, but she turned him down," the source explained.
Meri and Kody split in December, when Meri moved out of the family's Las Vegas compound. Remaining there are legal wife Robyn — he divorced Meri to marry her — as well as "spiritual wives" Christine and Janelle.
Since Meri's departure, Kody has been courting a 25-year-old divorced mother of two. "She's beautiful and Kody liked her tomboy spirit," the source shared.
"She told him, 'Let me know if you ever want a young, hot wife.' He was over the moon."
Kody reportedly started pulling back from his relationship with the woman more recently. He was concerned his actions were upsetting Robyn, but he was still confident he could move ahead.
"Kody told his friends that he was still sure it would work out, if he showed his commitment by proposing to her," the insider noted.
The woman wasn't impressed and recognized he was pulling back because of Robyn. "The woman told him she didn’t like the way Robyn controlled him so much," the source states.
"[She] said she could no longer see a future with him."
Sister Wives fans have criticized Robyn for monopolizing Kody's time since coming into the picture. She gets a lot of his time, while his other wives, children, and grandchildren get shafted. Now they believe she'll keep Kody from adding any other wives to the family.
