Sister Wives star, Mykelti Brown hasn’t always gotten along with her parents or her siblings. However, with the family unraveling, she has decidedly played “Switzerland” to keep the peace. However, some people don’t think she is truly neutral. Now she seems “giddy” about the attention she is getting while Kody Brown is feuding with her siblings.
Mykelti Brown Struggled With Her Siblings
Undoubtedly, growing up, Mykelti Brown Padron didn’t think she fit in with her family. When Robyn Brown entered the picture, she felt like Robyn truly saw her. Even though Christine Brown Woolley and Kody Brown admittedly had a difficult time with Mykelti, Robyn was able to help her. In an earlier episode of Sister Wives Season 19, Kody Brown admits that Mykelti and Robyn had a “really, really special experience together.”
Furthermore, Kody said that the bond improved the relationship that he and Christine had with Mykelti. In a confessional in Season 19 Episode 3, Mykelti tearfully expresses, “When Robyn first joined the family, I was trying to figure out who I was and she made me feel special. And she made me feel seen. Robyn was there for me when I needed somebody.” But as the season continues, viewers are starting to see Mykelti enjoying her siblings feuding with her dad.
Mykelti Brown Is Flattered By Kody And Robyn Brown’s Attention
When Robyn and Kody Brown come to meet the twins, fans notice that Mykelti Brown Padron almost revels in the fact her siblings and Kody are feuding. Kody offers to buy and build a house for Mykelti and Tony Padron in Flagstaff, AZ so they can move in and help with the babies. Furthermore, he says there is something “very special” in her. Likewise, Robyn says that Mykelti “sees more of the truth” about both sides of the family. Admittedly, Mykelti says she is “very proud” to introduce her dad to the twins. Kody says, “While Christine and I have been breaking up, Mykelti and I have been healing.” Seemingly, since Kody is fighting with many of the Brown kids, Mykelti comes out looking “golden” now.
Mykelti Brown Is ‘Giddy’ About Her Siblings Feuding With Kody
On Reddit, Sister Wives fans point out that Mykelti seems to be happy that her dad isn’t getting along with Maddie Brown Brush, Gabriel Brown, and several other estranged siblings. At first, one user says, “Mykelti is so…..” Then, they elaborate, “Am I the only one who thinks she was being very odd in this latest episode? It was like she was almost happy that she’s one of the only OG kids to be in ‘good favor’ with Kody. I just can’t wrap my head around someone wanting him their life when he’s treated people she claims she loves so terribly. Her AND Tony irk me.”
- “I think she’s a kid that wanted both of her parents to love and accept her. Now that they do she‘s giddy.”
- “She was a neglected kid who wants to be seen as favorable in her father’s eyes because she feels the need to people please. They all need therapy.”
Fans Weigh In
Other fans weigh in after the initial poster brings up Mykelti Brown lavishly soaking in the compliments from Kody and Robyn Brown.
- “She just gets excited that she is getting the attention she never got as a child. She reverts back to a child excited that daddy will spend time with her.”
- “Agree. And I had to laugh at Kody saying he sees something special in her. He never did before Robyn came along and fed him that line. In fact, I seem to remember him and all of the other parents for that matter complaining a lot about Mykelti.”
- “It was so gross when Kody said she is ‘special’ which in context was basically just saying she’s the only kid who is staying loyal to him. It was awkwardly apparent he still barely likes her but is happy to parade her out as the loyal kid, ‘see, this is what you get if you stay loyal, I’ll offer to let you move into a house next to Robbem and our kids.’ A direct slap in the face to his other kids.”
She Is Sorting Through Her Relationship With Her Dad
Another Sister Wives fan thinks that Kody Brown makes Mykelti Brown uncomfortable.
- “I didn’t see it that way she looks very uncomfortable around Kody. When he talked about having a big house for them to come to she said never or hell no. He made a comment about being so happy about another baby and she was snarky and was like after 18 kids. Just the way she looks at him seemed weird. They seem way more comfortable with Robyn. If she wanted his attention so badly she would’ve forced her daughter to hug him she just looked at her and was happy with her. Told her to give him pounds instead. Her relationship is with Robyn not Kody.”
- “You can dislike like your father but still be happy you are getting attention from them.”
- “I agree. I think she’s very guarded with him because, logically, she knows he will disappoint her. But, emotionally, she still needs and wants his validation.”
- “This sounds like someone who isn’t willing to force a kid to hug someone(I wouldn’t either). Getting her to give him a fist is another way of offering contact.”
Mykelti is so…..
