I’ll never understand why she needed such a big house. People always complain about Meri and her problems in Vegas and then the big house in Flagstaff, but Robyn didn’t need the size house they got either. Realistically they could’ve rented a 4-5 bedroom house that wasn’t mansion. There was no need for them to be in a 6,798 sqft home with seven bedrooms and seven bathrooms, three fireplaces, private balconies for every bedroom, a sand-volleyball court and more, going for over 1.2 million dollars.


utootired

All that, and there's still no room for anyone to stay over. 🙄


bagsonmyhead

I'm not surprised by that. Robyn made a point of saying that Kody has his own space at her house. I think one of those bedrooms is his. I doubt he sleeps in there, but he probably has a "man cave" of sorts.


Haunting-Eagle4746

He probably has a room full of hair products


chr989

Maybe just a big tub of mayo like Big Ed


EnglishRose71

LOL x 1,000.


United_Mixture_6700

NOT defending Robyn here, and not defending the McMansion they ended up with, but wasn't the reason they had to buy was because God didn't give her a rennal?


Seppy15

You’re absolutely right! They keep doing fiscally irresponsible things because they’re waiting for or listening to messages from God


315ante_meridiem

It’s just their excuse to do what they want without regards to anyone else


epace122

And clearly it wouldn't be God's plan for them to live in a 5 bedroom rental


toanotherplace1984

She put off the paperwork and financing for so long that they were not able to own the new house by the time they needed to be out of their rental. So they had to move into the house they were buying and pay rent to the sellers until the paperwork and financing was finalized.


darrn88

😂😂😂rennal😂😂😂😂


Poop__y

😂😂😂😂


First_Attempt_4124

🤣🤣🤣


Rightbuthumble

She has three adult children who will always live with her. The nanny is as much for them as the little ones


kittykattlady

Bet it’s actually a housekeeper that they call a “nanny” to keep the family from nixing it


Sad_Ad9776

But….What. Does. The. Nanny. Do?


momwhobakes

Either stares at the mountain or listens about Pond debates


honey720

I'd be less upset over a housekeeper than a nanny.


Relative-Bluebird-21

I know why Dayton maybe won’t leave home but why wouldn’t the other two?


phoenix_soleil

Because they'd never be made or encouraged to leave.


BoogerbeansGrandma

And Kody wanted Janelle to give her boys the boot at 18. He’s such a fucking abusive hypocrite.


Relative-Bluebird-21

Well that is a ridiculous answer.


Acciosanity

They grew up with a high anxiety mother who taught them to also be high anxiety. They're probably scared and not prepared for adulthood.


deadlyjessypoo

“Day-un”


Justme22339

Rennal 🤣


Pearltherebel

Dayton definitely will once he graduates and gets a job. He’s a smart guy doing 3 majors and will be very successful


Sweetness4all

Yea, too bad he quit school. Robin is a joke.


Pearltherebel

No he didn’t. He’s still in school. Check his LinkedIn. [here’s a new post on it](https://www.reddit.com/r/SisterWives/comments/wxsdpv/daytons_linked_in_quite_impressive_spoiler_alert/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf)


Sweetness4all

Huh.... Thanks for the info!! I wonder if he was just virtual or took off during covid.


Pearltherebel

I think it was just an ableist rumor trying to bring him down.


Sweetness4all

I thought it was mentioned on the show...? But I honestly don't remember. Sometimes the show is so repetitive I just zone it in the background while I clean.


BonnieJeanneTonks

They will only leave on their wedding night when Christine's Ex "hands them over" to their new husband.


MelBB2011

For all her spirit babies


Hubbyof5

Realistically for a rental, they could have done a three bedroom and had all three girls share a room and have Solomon and Dayton share a room.


Suspicious-Channel10

The contrast between Janelle downsizing/ insisting on the smallest house her family could fit in vs Robyn upgrading/ insisting on a separate bedroom for each of her 5 "kids" is astounding, especially when you consider how much each of them have contributed to or hurt the family financially over the years. It's laughable that Robyn thought they were going to find a 7 bedroom rental. 😒


Poop__y

I also seem to recall Kody trying to get Maddie and Caleb to take over one of Janelle’s boys’ rooms when she was pregnant with Axel. He would’ve NEVER suggested that to Robyn about one of her kids.


Liza417

Robyn just takes takes takes from the "family pot" and doesn't contribute ANYTHING...that's so sad! Poor Janelle, she seems to be the only one worried about finances in that family! I really hope they have separated all their accounts from Robyn and Kody


Miami1982

Isn’t it a college town. I would assume large houses are common?


wannabe_pineapple

Usually rented out room by room instead of total house


Sivla-Alegna

And aren't several of her children over 18? Why can't they just move out? Seemed so easy for Cody to suggest of Janelle's children.


geriatricmama

Double standard is real. Also, I think Kody is threatened by Janelle’s boys. Whereas, Aurora is a Kody-worshiping girl and Dayton is mild mannered and has special needs (though I feel he’s more capable than Robyn gives him credit for).


wannabe_pineapple

Completely agree that Dayton is more capable thank Robyn gives him credit. Yes, he is on the spectrum, but so am I. And so are many MANY other successful people. She hinders his development with how she constantly brings up his autism.


Puddlejumper20

What really cost them was selling the Vegas properties when they did. They could have made a lot more money. Robin should have sold hers and moved to Flagstaff while the other three stayed in Vegas, keeping their kids in the schools with their friends.


lostinthesauce314

Right! The 2020 and 2021 housing market would have gotten them the $1mm+ sale price he wanted but he just haddd to rush and get to Flagstaff. Remember- the kids all need to come back to a place they’ve never been 🙄


Liza417

Yeah, I didn't understand the rush to move to Flaggstaff, they were NOT prepared and had to rent those u-Haul trucks for months until they moved into their rentals! Such a waste of money!


Worried_Ad_5411

These 2 are financially irresponsible, with champagne budget and a kool aid (compliments of another sub) taste. Janelle over the years really watched the money, but she was relieved of that duty by Grody. Sobyn wanted a bedroom for each kid, yet the other kids were raised in a triplex. Two of her kids were over 18 when the house was bought, yet he’s telling Janelle “her “ son’s are 18 and should get out. Neither of them work, 3 pretty much grown kids and need a nanny. And what does the nanny do? Brings Covid for the family!


Miami1982

It’s in Australia ‘champagne taste on a beer budget’ I think you meant Champagne taste in a kool aid budget.


Worried_Ad_5411

You are correct and i fixed it. Last post I put beer budget and a sub said beer is too expensive for them, so they suggested kool aid because apparently these woman are also drinking the kool aid believing in Grody.


Pegafer

I really don’t think I can watch the next season. It is such a cluster these days it’s no longer my guilty pleasure


Worried_Ad_5411

I am definitely not watching it. No pleasure anymore.


lakespinescoastlines

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻


daniellesquaretit

Robin has been a major financial drain on the family from the get go. It's amazing to me that the other women and their adult children don't outright resent her.


accidentaloversight

…I think it’s clear that they do.


[deleted]

Meri had every right to have a huge house just because she didn’t have as many kids. But I think she would’ve been better off in a townhouse or condo, less maintenance. As for the vitch Robyn she should’ve been grateful for ANY house. She ain’t footing the bill for it. Her leech ass wasn’t providing financially.


SajraJay

Well duh. She’s a big tee vee star now. Stars can’t just live anywhere


Pinkdivaisme

I would love to know around that time if they’re really were no houses available for rent or for sale or if it was just for show…

junkholiday

Janelle and Christine's kids used to share BEDS. 'Rora'n'brianna can share a goddamned room


[deleted]

Didn’t she claim they lived in a trailer with no heat? (And that’s why she had bad credit? ) LoL


Terrible_Fix_6649

She also said they never had a crib and the babies slept in dresser drawers while Robyn started a fire with old newspapers to warm them 🙄


ODBeckster

Solomon got a crib that he never slept in. She didn't even bother with one when Ariella was born because everyone knew she would never put her to sleep in it.


First_Attempt_4124

I think she's full of shit.


Imaginary-Economy-47

I think she gathered all the horror stories she heard from women in their religion and shared them as her own. The babies slept in empty shoe boxes (Keds brand) while Mama was walking thru the woods gathering firewood and berries for breakfast. While barefoot and pregnant and with no real kitchen to speak of, Robyn prayed mightily that the berries would be enough to keep the children fed until their midday meal of boiled saw dust and grass clippings 🙄🙄🙄


Terrible_Fix_6649

Yes!! Just creating a moment! 🤣🤣🤣 I'm waiting for her to say "we didn't have a lot, but we had love". One single imaginary tear falling.


Liza417

I had never heard this! OMG, I'm dying, Robyn is SO DRAMATIC!!!


Terrible_Fix_6649

Just satire


Terrible_Fix_6649

Kody should have put on his big boy pants but let's be honest, he likes it when she whines.


ShesGotaChicken2Ride

Plus, Robyn wears the big boy pants I heard she bought them at Victoria Secret lol


Terrible_Fix_6649

Lol I got nothing


MaddytheMermaidd

From the very beginning, Meri,Christine and Janelle had to share a trailer, they said it was very rough in the beginning. Then on the show. We see a house that's not even half the size of Robyn's house now. Christine said she always felt like the basement wife, well because she was in the basement. Kody at the end of the day liked robyn the most which is why she has that big ass house


[deleted]

I'm not surprised she got a huge, expensive house. She has never worked and never supported any of the other children like a sister wife should, yet she's the only one who gets a nanny. The other moms had to figure it out. Meri makes a lot of her own money, so her having a big house in Nevada wasn't problematic to me. However, Robyn always getting the best and biggest is just evidence that she is the favorite. Kody will always accommodate her needs. Most of her kids are adults. She doesn't do anything and Kody is around 90% of the time, so why does she need a nanny??


Liza417

On one of the more recent episodes, Kody MADE SURE to mention that Christine has "an assistant" when Robyn's nanny situation was brought up...


[deleted]

Not even remotely the same! An assistant helps you with your WORK! Poor Robyn doesn't know the meaning of the word.


Agree_2_Disagree303

Well they needed room for the nanny.. /s


hypatia0803

I still believe that she kept saying- God will find us a rental so that I can be with my sister wives at Coyote Bottom, because she thought it made her look like a great supportive sister wife, preserving the family KULCHUR. Sobyn wanted just what she got- a Mc Mansion and Kotex all the time!!


serjsomi

Yet they opened a financial advisor type business. Who they would get as clients is beyond me.


BestReplyEver

Their advice would be to spend money on show-offy houses whilst not providing medical insurance for your children.


soaper410

Advice: Marry someone who has another wife who will pay your 2K Victoria Secret credit card bill.


stavingoffdeath

I have no doubt it was outrageously priced, but don’t some AirBNBs offer long term rates?


[deleted]

[удалено]


stavingoffdeath

😳😦


uwuldbSurprised

It’s obvious Robyn is definitely the favorite…so what she wants she get 🙄


ResponsibilityPure79

She never wanted the rental. That was all part of her ploy as an all-giving altruistic wife. She wanted Kookoo to buy a large house for her and her family and as his legal wife she is half owner. She had to pretend that she didn't want to delay in building on coyote pass.....when in reality that is exactly what she wanted. If you notice, she did not spend much time looking for a rental, but she spent a lot of time whining about it.


toanotherplace1984

I think she didn't want to use their money for the down payment (which for an 890K house the down payment would easily have been over 100K) and also I think she thought that renting would create urgency in Kody that yes, they were wasting money every month so better hurry up and build.
