\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tKody Brown\u2019s relationships with Meri Brown, Janelle Brown, Christine Brown and Robyn Brown have all had their ups and downs \u2014 but many Sister Wives viewers were shocked when nearly all his wives started to leave him.

But I don\u2019t care. I really don\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\nReferring to Kody and Robyn, 45, Janelle quipped: \u201cThey can have each other.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kody was legally married<\/a> to Meri Brown<\/strong><\/a> at the time and had spiritual unions with Christine and Janelle. Four years later, however, he shook up his relationships by divorcing Meri, 52, in order to lawfully wed Robyn<\/a> and adopt her children from a previous marriage.
