Meet The Wives

Sister Wives launched with critics discussing their unconventional familial structure. While polygamy is technically illegal in the United States, the Browns still chose to be in the spotlight. The group's arrangement is inspired by the fundamentalist Mormon faith known as Apostolic United Brethren — the religion isn't a part of the Official Church of Latter-Day Saints. The freshman season was a mountain of evidence for law enforcement.

"When you kiss, the person that you kiss, their hormones go into your mouth and it registers certain things that will stimulate both the heart and the body for other reasons," Kody warned a young Mykelti.
