Season 19 of Sister Wives premiered its latest episode on TLC on Sunday, September 29, 2024. This episode showcased Mykelti during the birth of her twins, Archer Padron and Ace Padron. Alongside her husband, Tony, she expressed the desire for her mothers, Christine and Robyn, to be present during and after the delivery.
Mykelti noted that having them by her side was a remarkably special moment. Once they returned home, she asked Robyn to stay for the initial two to three nights to foster her “bonding”with the twins. Only after Robyn departed would Christine have her time alone with the children.
Reflecting on Mykelti’s choice, Christine observed that her daughter shared a strong connection with Robyn. She considered it her duty to reunite the family however possible. In the meantime, Robyn stated her intention to handle most of the caregiving and later hand over the “baton”to Christine.
Fans of Sister Wives were taken aback by Mykelti prioritizing Robyn’s presence over that of her own mother. Many took to X (formerly Twitter) to voice their disapproval.
“I don’t care what anyone says, Mykelti having Robyn there at all is just gross. The fact that she invites Robyn, and Robyn even comes, is beyond. She ruined both of those births by being there. Robyn has zero respect for Christine,”a fan wrote.
“Why is Robyn the first to spend time with the babies when they aren’t her grandkids and the actual grandmothers go second and third?! That’s awful on Mykelti’s part,”another fan commented.
Many viewers of Sister Wives expressed disapproval of Mykelti’s choice to favor Robyn over her birth mother, Christine.
“I feel that it’s too bad that Mykelti doesn’t have her primary loyalty to her birth mom, Christine. At some level, that has to be hurtful to Christine. She is a really good mom to rise above it and put her children first,”a netizen tweeted.
“Why would Mykelti have Robyn there for the twins’ birth? She perpetually hates on her mom Christine. Robyn could have come the next week to see the twins,”a user reacted.
“Mykelti is a whole f**king weirdo for having Robyn spend the first few nights with the twins before Christine did! Sorry not sorry,”a person commented.
“Robyn gets to spend time with the babies on their first nights home but not Christine?! Wow okay, Mykelti,”another fan wrote.
Simultaneously, some Sister Wives viewers speculated on Robyn’s relationship with Mykelti.
“Robyn figured out that Mykelti was the black sheep and that’s why she went after Mykelti. That’s where she was able to start alienating people in the family and pulling them into her plan of another monogamous marriage,”a user tweeted.
“Mykelti you had a good relationship with Robyn because she saw you as the easy one to manipulate out of all the siblings. You were used as the babysitter so your dad and her could go on dates. She saw that you felt unseen by the others and took advantage of that,”one netizen commented.
Sister Wives star Mykelti describes her experience as “incredible”with both her mothers at the hospital
Mykelti remarked that giving birth to her twins was a nerve-wracking experience. However, upon seeing Tony in the room, she felt an instant sense of calm. After the birth of Archer and Ace, Mykelti expressed that it felt “awesome,”and she was “happy”to have both Robyn and Christine present.
“It was just this incredible experience,”Mykelti stated.
However, Sister Wives star Kody expressed concern regarding Robyn and Christine’s interactions. He was uncertain about the nature of their relationship, particularly given Christine’s recent separation from him. In a candid moment, a visibly emotional Robyn acknowledged the shared history she and Christine had while holding the twins.
Back home, Mykelti explained her intention to allow Robyn to bond with the twins initially.
“She’s just kind of going to be here 24/7. This was really nice ’cause Robyn was able to get bonding with the grandkids,”Mykelti said.
The Sister Wives cast member added that once Robyn departed, Christine “would be able to get her bonding as well.”Additionally, Tony’s mother, Maria, would have her opportunity to spend time with the children. Christine shared that, as many of Robyn’s family members adored Mykelti, she felt responsible for unifying the family.
Meanwhile, Sister Wives star Robyn argued that a divorce should not limit one’s relationship. She believed this was why she continued to play an important part in Mykelti’s life, despite Christine and Kody’s divorce. However, Christine expressed discomfort around Robyn, noting that the circumstances felt “awkward.”
Sister Wives airs every Sunday at 10 PM ET on TLC.
