In the latest twist of the ongoing saga surrounding “Sister Wives,” it appears that Cody Brown is experiencing a significant fallout with many of his adult children.
Once a figure of support for him, even those who previously stood by his side are now voicing their discontent.
One notable voice in this growing chorus of dissent is McKelty Padron, the daughter he shares with ex-wife Christine Brown.
Her recent comments shed light on how the current season has shifted her perspective on her father.
During a fan Q&A session shared on the Instagram account Without a Crystal Ball, McKelty expressed her thoughts candidly.
She suggested that if Cody were to take more responsibility for his actions, he might find a way to reconnect with some of his estranged children.
“Instead of pointing fingers at us or blaming outside influences, he should just acknowledge his mistakes,” she remarked.
This straightforward approach, she believes, could pave the way for healing within the family.
The current season of “Sister Wives” has laid bare the strained dynamics within the Brown family.
Following Cody’s split from Christine in 2021 and his breakups with Janelle and Mary Brown in 2022, he now finds himself primarily with Robin Brown, leaving a trail of tension behind.
The show has highlighted Cody’s complicated interactions with his 18 children, many of whom are now feeling increasingly alienated.
McKelty, who is a mother herself to daughter Avalon and twin sons Ace and Archer, has not shied away from confronting her father about his remarks concerning their family.
For instance, she recalled a moment when Cody labeled his daughter Madison Brush a “gossip” on the show, which understandably led to considerable frustration within the family.
“I can see why everyone reacted the way they did,” she stated, emphasizing the impact of her father’s words.
Her concerns extend beyond just Madison.
McKelty pointed out that when Cody makes sweeping statements about his children, it casts a shadow over all of them.
“When he generalizes like that, it affects every single one of us,” she explained.
Even though she recognizes that not all comments are directed at her personally, the hurt still resonates deeply.
Once seen as the peacemaker within the family, McKelty is now shifting her perspective and holding her father accountable for much of the discord.
