Sister Wives star Paedon Brown may not be a consistent part of the series, but his attitude has been noticed by viewers as his ego has seemed to grow out of control. During their nearly 30 year marriage, Kody Brown and Christine Brown had six children together including Paedon, their only son. Though Paedon’s direct siblings were all sisters, he has 12 siblings from Kody’s other marriages with Meri Brown, Janelle Brown, and Robyn Brown. Being one of 17, Paedon has struggled to stand out from the crowd. Growing up and being isolated due to the family’s religious beliefs, Paedon has only been in the public eye in recent years.
Paedon’s family has been the center of attention when it comes to Sister Wives viewers, even with some major cracks forming in the foundation of the Brown family. Sister Wives season 18’s main thread followed back to the previous season, when Paedon’s mother Christine chose to divorce Kody and leave the family behind, moving to Salt Lake City, Utah to be closer to her children. While Christine’s choice created a large split between the family, Paedon was happy to see his mother moving on. Despite his happiness for Christine, Paedon’s poor behavior hasn’t gone unnoticed by Sister Wives viewers.
