Sister Wives star Kody Brown accuses ex-wives Christine and Janelle of separating him from his children

Sister Wives star Kody Brown has accused his ex-wives Christine and Janelle of ‘separating’ him from his children in a brand new clip.

Watch the clip below:

The popular TLC show follows 54-year-old Kody, who is at the centre of a polygamist family with wife Robyn and ex-wives Meri, Janelle and Christine, with whom he shares 18 children collectively.

Kody was once ‘spiritually married’ to all four women, but now the only person who is still with him is Robyn, as the others left him.

Throughout season 18, we’ve been seeing just how fractured things are among the family, with Breanna – the daughter of Kody and Robyn – discussing how it feels being estranged from a number of her siblings, including sister Savannah.

“I kind of just feel shocked and confused and like she doesn’t care,” she said.

“I don’t know what the right word is. It kind of just broke my heart a little ‘cause you know, I grew up with her. I grew up with all of them.”

A new clip shows Kody celebrating Easter with Robyn and their children after becoming estranged from his former partners, with his wife saying they need to have traditions that ‘carry this part of the family forward’.

Kody says to the camera: "We can fix things. We can heal things. We can get some of our family back together, most of it back together maybe.

"But right now because of where everybody's at [and] where I'm at, I have a life with Robyn and her children.

“And right now, [I'm] OK with that even though I hope we can fix things and move things to a different place."

Kody goes on to claim Christine and Janelle are keeping his children from him, saying: "An identity without their dad. This is exactly what Christine and Janelle's plan is. To separate me from my children so they can have them all to themselves."

In a confessional, Christine admits she has experienced a lot of ‘tension’ with the extended family.

"When we moved to Flagstaff, things became very, very difficult,” she says.

“Family gatherings were hard. There was just so much tension in the air.

"So for this, there's no tension. We’re just glad to be around each other and with each other. And it feels like a real holiday should feel like rather than having tension in the air."
