As the pandemic took a toll globally, fans got to see the worst side of Sister Wives star Kody Brown. Although he tried his best to enforce his four-page-long COVID rules for his family, the 53-year-old was seen ignoring his own rules every now and then. His intense COVID guidelines even got to a point where he alienated some of his own children. His attempt at alienating his children was especially true for Ysabel at her toughest time. However, at the same time, he was seen conveniently ignoring his protocol while snapping at Christine for not following the social distancing rule. Keep reading to find out what happened!

The Brown family patriarch was angry because Christine defied his wish of delaying the surgery. Moreover, she prioritized her daughter’s health over his commands.
Fans Call Out Kody Brown For His Hypocrisy
However, Sister Wives fans called out Kody for his hypocrisy in the paper signing scene. They took to Reddit to share their views as the OP shared a video of Christine asking Kody to sign Ysabel’s surgery papers.
They wrote, “He snaps at Christine to maintain her social distance but doesn’t think twice about taking/using the papers and pen straight out of her hands. He even licks his fingers.”

“He’s acting like she threw her arms around him. No, she just got closer than 6 feet apart. Ffs they were married and he’s treating her like a stranger,” wrote another.
A third fan quipped,
“How great would it have been if Christine launched herself at him, flung her limbs around him, and licked his face like a giant lollipop?”

A fourth talked about how this was another one of Kody’s attempts to regain control and feel powerful while putting down Christine. They wrote, “That wasn’t about social distancing that. That was a cheap power play. I seriously don’t understand how he could treat her like that and still be surprised that she left.”
“So much for the 4-page covid rules! I would think ‘Don’t lick fingers’ would be high on that list, but I guess not,” wrote a fifth fan.
Was COVID An Excuse For Kody To Not See His Family?
Kody was all cranky about maintaining social distancing with his other kids and wives. However, his rules don’t seem to apply to Robyn and his favorite kids. In the latest season, his youngest children, Solomon and Ariella were seen returning back from school, and without masks.

For parents that have been freaking out about COVID for months, it wasn’t mandatory when it came to their favorite kids. Fans feel it was just an excuse for Kody to not see his family. Others believe that he just wanted to stay at Robyn’s house for as long as possible.
