FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA: It looks like Robyn Brown's constant crying during 'Sister Wives' Season 18 reunion has sparked speculations of the show being scripted.

Kody and Robyn Brown, alongside their ex-sister wives, were interviewed individually by host Sukanya Krishnan as they grappled through the rocky roads of the polyamorous relationship. 

However, claims of the show being "scripted" emerged as fans noticed moments like Robyn crying without tears actually falling from her eyes during the 'Sister Wives' Season 18 Tell-All.

Witnessing the Tell-All episode, a fan wrote, "It's so obvious this tell all is scripted with all the flashbacks, they probably all had a copy of the script because they're not speaking with emotion. "



 

Another wrote, "@tlc, can you please get Sobyn a new acting coach? The fake cry has never gotten better. #SisterWives."



 

A fan wondered, "How many minutes of Robyn's fake tears are we going to be forced to endure? I want to see an actual tear. I need a drink."



 

"#SisterWives Robyn and her fake tears. But I would cry too if I realized I would be left with Kody. Maybe Robyn realizes Kody is nuts," tweeted another. A fan laughed at sobbing Robyn, saying, "Sobbyn Robyn is at it again She’s had a whole year to learn how to produce tears when she fake cries and she still can’t do it."

In the Tell-All episode, viewers witnessed Robyn expressing her support for Kody in working through issues with his sister's wives. She conveyed to Kody, "Go work it out with her. Go and talk to her."

Robyn was visibly stunned to witness the strained relationship between Kody and Janelle, especially after 30 years together and raising six children.

Her voice cracked as she conveyed to host Sukanya Krishnan, "That's worth looking at."

Although no actual tears fell, Robyn became emotional, stating, "That's worth fighting for" in reference to Janelle and Kody's marriage.

Christine was the first to separate from Kody, making the decision to end their spiritual marriage after 25 years, as announced in November 2021.

Following in Christine's footsteps, Janelle decided to part ways, noticing a decline in Kody's interest. She revealed the split in December 2022.

Meri grappled with confusion about whether to end her relationship but observed Kody's clear alignment with Robyn over his other sister wives. She ultimately announced her separation from Kody in January 2023.

As of now, Kody is legally married only to Robyn.

'Sister Wives' Season 18's 4-part Tell-All is available to stream on TLC.
