Synopsis: Kody and the sister wives (Meri, Janelle, Christine, Robyn) are at a crossroads. Divorce from Kody was expected to be a document shuffle but has become much more complex. The family struggles to move forward. The Browns are working to legally adopt Robyn's children from a previous marriage. Kody takes his youngest daughters to the beach to bond. Robyn announces her pregnancy.
Source [1]: Kody Brown has four wives, but only one is legally married to him.
Source [2]: Wives are Meri, Janelle, Robyn, and Christine. They have 17 children. They try to live as a "normal" family despite disdain.
Source [3]: Kody Brown has four wives (one legally married). They have 18 children. They navigate life as a "normal" family in a society that shuns their lifestyle.
Note on child count discrepancy: Source [2] says 17 children, Source [3] says 18 children. I will use the information provided. I'll stick to the most general or mention the context if needed, but usually, in an archivist role, I should be careful. I'll use the information from the synopsis/sources.
