I honestly think Kody was saying they are only friends, and no longer romantically involved. And Janelle is quick to agree and say that this type of relationship "is fine" with her. She doesn't want a deeper relationship with him.

Nope.. she's just beyond relieved she doesn't have to sleep with him anymore. Lol

I thought his creepy smile was 'cause he was getting exactly what he wanted; a holiday alone with his "real" family.

Yep. That's exactly how to keep family dysfunction going...make sure no one actually has the information to resolve any of the conflict. Besides how would Kody be able to remain a victim if things were resolved. Lack of resolution assures lack of accountability.

Ohhhhhh I agree Kody loathes Meri...but I think Meri has no real interest in Kody either. She tried to leave him. She is only pretending to be smitten with him 'cause she knows there is zero chance he's interested in her. It's really a perfect fit her. She gets to stay in that sh*tshow of a family AND be a victim of it. Meri LOVES being a victim (maybe even more than Robyn or Kody do). I mean seriously the happiest she has ever looked is when she talks about how much she ADORES Kody but he can't stand her. Giggle. Giggle. Weird stuff.

I agree with those who point out Kody isn't the first guy to abandon his family for a younger, "more compliant" woman. There is absolutely nothing complicated or original about him. Honestly, it's taken him four tries to find someone with as low of an IQ as his. I'm not joking...both Robyn and Kody just seem soooo soooo so dumb. It's clear Robyn lacks education, but she seems to also lack intelligence. So he finally found someone he doesn't have to feel stupid around. And Kody is so obviously manipulative. He's turned his back on MOST of his family commitments and yet feels like HE is the victim. (Uhm...can't see a pattern Kody? Can't see the common denominator? IT'S YOU @SSH0L* ) I mean, if his wives or children follow all his covid rules, he just makes up more...then pouts about not feeling respected. He is really just the WORST But I love watching Meri out manipulate him. She basically left Kody for another man (who wasn't a man at all), and now here she is...a victim herself. She just ADORES Kody 😉 . And Kody can't just dismisses her 'cause she helps with pretending that they have this emotionally complex family. Meri, Kody and Robyn really are the perfect family. They all deserve each other. And EVERYONE else deserves so much better

But...but...I think that's what her disappointment is...she signed up for 1/3 of a husband and father but isn't getting it. When she had Truely it seemed like that was still what she was getting. She accepted settling for 1/4 husband /father once Robyn joined the family. But it's clear she's getting ZERO of Kody now. He even said he didn't realize their daughter had been in pain? Wth? It's HIS daughter! That is the most basic of parenting...recognizing when your offspring is feeling pain. Dear LORD even cavemen figured that basic stuff out. Kody is just one of those men who dismisses their existing family when they move on to create a new one. It's unfortunate that these men are out there. Unfortunately it's not hugely uncommon. They ALL sound EXACTLY the same .... how they would be closer to their children if they didn't have to go thru the wife... ...blah, blah, blah...poor them...they aren't bad people...they are VICTIMS...blah, blah, blah... There is nothing about these people that suggests a "family unit". Kody is just someone who likes to keep his options open and date multiple women and discard them when he's bored. He's not unique or interesting in the least.

Ya know...Kody has one completely failed marriage, one circling the drain, and one that seems as though it's been platonic from the start. He also has strained relationships with several of his children. There is a pattern here. Why does Robin think their marriage will last? And why can't Kody see that the common denominator in these failed relations is HIM?

Kody is simply the worst. Poor girl is in constant pain, but no matter how Kody looks at that situation HE is always the victim. He really is the worst human ever.

Just have to state the obvious, but...SteVen is beyond creepy. He can't actually be for real, right? (Oh and Ellie/Victor...those types of transactional relationships are difficult even in the best of times)

I'm kinda surprised just how gross/dirty Jenny and Sumit's place is. Those two can't seem to get their act togther in any way at all. Dear Lawd. Ug.

Yep, I agree with ya'll. Kim's a narcissist. You can just see the GLEE in her eyes when confronted with a boundary. Narcs LOVE boundaries. They love to push through them. It's a power play. Kim intentionally parked her car for all to see. Again...it's about power...it's about keeping her prey off kilter and uncomfortable. I can't fault the younger kids for what they say and do. Kim uses them as pawns (in the narc world it's called "flying monkeys"...like in the Wizard of Oz...those who do you bidding). In a narc family like that, you can see the kids almost throwing each other under the bus to avoid the rath of Kim on them. Kim speaks of her adult children as though they are children. It seems poor Olivia stumbled into the kingdom of Kim and stole one of her minions. Gawd...that woman makes my skin crawl.

I'm so over Evelyn. She has zero interest in Corey. She needs to move on. We all do.

Idk. I suspect he was hoping to land an American sugar mommy, and Jenny sort of fit that bill (just barely). Jenny was swept up in the fantasy of a foreign hansome man sweeping in as her protector/savior and if you try really hard Submit sort of gits that storyline (just barely). I think neither are willing to look at their actual relationship with any critical or realistic eye. They barely, sort of have what they hoped they would. It's good enough for them, I guess.

But thats what I'm saying...she could just shrug and let it go every.single.time Sutton brings it up. I'm not denying Crystal has a right to speak up for herself every.single.time Sutton brings it up though.

About violategate...i think most of us agree Sutton just seems too darn fragile to be on a reality t.v. show. It's painful (not in a good way ;) ) to watch her. A stress vibe just rolls off her. She doesn't seem so much to be playing to the carmera but rather fighting for her emotional well being. I suspect she is dealing with some real toxic shame issues. It's not just Crystal saying her BEHAVIOR was bad, but Sutton thinks Crystal is saying her VERY BEING is bad. That's tricky stuff cause it's not something you can just let go. You feel like you are in a fight for your very life. Its hard to feel a lot of empathy for someone in a toxic shame spiral, because they are in such a selfish mindset, but at least I feel like Sutton should exit reality t.v for her own emotional health (and that's empathic). Crystal could shrug and let it go, but that won't earn her a spot next season. If Sutton continues to give her a plotline, Crystal will continue to play along. Why not?

Ya know Crystal should just say, "I'm not gonna take back THE word 'cause that's how it felt to me. Of course, I have a long, well known history with body issues and secretive tatics to hide my eating disorders, so I likely overacted and am continuing to see the whole situation through a pretty dysfunctional lense" And Sutton should just confess "Oh I'm only bringing it up again 'cause I completely forgot to bring a birthday present and that whole "southern belle gift in hand" is my thing...so imagine how awkward, embarrased and ashame I feel right now. The only way I could try to divert the shame was to act like a victim again. It has nothing really to do with you Crystal" Then everything would make sense and they could change thd subject amd move on. And...yeah...lying liar who lies and switched to non-waterproof mascara. Ug.

Hahaha...I use to have that damn hat Trish wore in a previous episode (you know the one)....I actually bought it TWICE....lololololol. Dying of embarrassment. Dying. Also, it needs to be said again...Trish and Mike are garbage.

Amy's hoarding tendencies would absolutely be a deal breaker for me. Nope. Just nope.

She said he was drunk amd she was scared of him..uhm...well THAT'S not gonna end well. I mean she's already setting him up for a domestic accusation setup. That should get her a ticket back home! She scares me.

Drunk yelling at the T.V. - lolololol

Ohhhhh...anyone would be hard pressed to have a MIL worse than mine! Just the worse! Still that scene seemed staged.

There is no way that wedding day convo was legit. No one can be as clueless as Betty, right?

I also can't get over that "farm" family. The mother treated poor Julia like a new farm hand...perhaps an exchange student. Julia was clearly allowed to come as a help/aide to the family. They sure aren't treating her as a fiancee. I get that it's the parent's home and their rules. That's fine. It's old fashioned, but their choice. Brandon seems like a nice enough kid. He seems immature, but that's to be expected given his childlike existence in his parent's home. This is the reason adult children use to moved out of their parent's homes at 18 yrs old. Because it was time to grow up. I just get the impression Ma Kettle won't be happy when he does go though. She wants it both ways... she seems to be happy with her man/boy.

Gwad I hate Henry. Hate him.
