FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA: 'Sister Wives' Season18 star Kody Brown celebrated Christmas with wife Robyn Brown, then-wife Meri Brown, and their children in the latest episode. However, the reality received backlash for the treatment of his daughter Savannah during the most recent episode.
Kody and Janelle had an explosive feud in the previous episode with the latter admitting to feeling 'stuck' in the relationship and that she 'didn't know' Kody.
In Episode 4, Janelle spent the holidays alone with her children, including 18-year-old Savanah, at a vacation rental. While Janelle noted how the holiday was a 'relief,' she also said she felt a 'sadness' due to the fact that Kody was 'not showing up for his kids.'
Savanah labeled the day as 'quiet' but 'kind of pleasant' as she and her brothers opened their stockings while sitting on the couch. However, Janelle revealed that she had not heard from any other family members that day.
Notably, Kody gifted luxurious gifts to his kids with Robyn but he didn't even call or text Savanah. A Reddit user started a thread noting the shocking moment and noted, "Typical bitter baby daddy behavior."
Another user added, "That’s because Savannah is Janelle’s kid and if Kody is mad at the mom then the kids pay the price."
No, it’s a box that can hold a very small man….like her father. Savannah deserves better!
Another social media user said, "Right? Parents fight. They divorce. It happens. But you reach a new level of terribad when you punish your kid who has done nothing wrong because of their mother. He’s such trash."
I cannot imagine how hurt she must have been when she figured out what happened. Well, how upset all of the kids around the ages of R’s older ones, really.
My heart broke for her. You can see it all over her face how hurt she is that he didn't even bother to call.
