Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 2 Recap: Wives in Crisis

The relationship between two of Kody’s spouses and one of the show’s most dysfunctional dynamics was featured on Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 2.


Oh yes, Meri and Janelle Brown headed to “couples” therapy …



Yes, Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 2 saw Kody Brown’s first and second wives attend counseling to work on things with one another.


If you watch Sister Wives online, you know these two have a history.


According to Janelle Brown, drama between herself and Meri began when she joined the family three years after Meri and Kody were married.


Janelle chalked it up to the duo’s extremely different personalities.


That, or MULTIPLE WOMEN MARRYING THE SAME DUDE.


“The time has now arrived that Meri and I have our appointment [with Nancy]. I have some butterflies in my stomach for sure,” Janelle said.


Kody Brown states that he hopes his wives can come to an understanding but fears “these two mommies may never have it worked out.”


His third and fourth wives, Christine and Robyn, also say that they’re excited for the two to seek counseling, as “the less tension the better.”


In the therapist’s office, Kody’s wives reverse roles as a way to break the ice, and it turns into a very interesting exercise for both women.


“It’s very painful to watch people imitate you and then to watch their reactions to your imitation of them,” Janelle says after playing Meri.


During therapy, the two learn that Janelle doesn’t like how direct Meri is, while Meri finds it frustrating that Janelle can’t process feelings.


Their counselor advises them to embrace each other’s differences, leaving them feeling as though they accomplished “a lot” in therapy.


“I feel like we made good progress and understanding how we’re different,” Janelle says. “Hopefully we can [use] what we learned.” 


“It should be interesting. I hope it works out.”
