Transcript

00:00So when Robin first came into the family,

00:02she started talking to us about these other families

00:05where the first wife divorced the husband

00:09so he could marry the second wife legally

00:11and legally adopt the kids.

00:12And I remember thinking, yeah, that's a plant.

00:15Christine Brown claiming her former sister wife, Robin,

00:18orchestrated Mary and Cody's divorce.

00:21So Robin will always be numero uno.

00:24I think she's going to be it.

00:25Why would they look for something else?

00:27I think they found each other.

00:28On Sister Wives, Mary continues to process

00:31the end of her relationship with Cody

00:33and reflects on their legal divorce,

00:35which happened in 2014.

00:37That legal divorce was so impactful for me

00:40because when I got married,

00:43there was one ceremony.

00:45He signed the paper, we're done.

00:47So now we're basically unsigning the paper.

00:50Like, I had a lot of heartache around that

00:53because I honestly, I didn't feel

00:56emotionally supported during all of that.

00:58Yeah.

00:59And I didn't feel like I should be.

01:01Mary was Cody's first wife

01:03before he spiritually married her now former sister wives,

01:06Christine, Janelle, and Robin.

01:09Cody and I met through his sister.

01:12She introduced us.

01:14I was 19 and he was 22.

01:16It actually was a very short courtship.

01:19It's so interesting that Cody was married to

01:22these women who had such different personalities.

01:26Well, you know, in the religion that we were involved in,

01:31and why we started our family,

01:34you know, our plural family that way,

01:36that's okay, you know?

01:37I mean, it's not like all of my friends

01:39all have the same personality.

01:41But you're not married to your friends.

01:43That's true.

01:44Mary was Cody's only legal wife from 1990 to 2014.

01:48That's when they divorced so he could legally marry

01:51his fourth wife, Robin.

01:53And Mary says it was all her idea.

01:57I was the one who made that move

02:00and went to go talk to the lawyer first

02:03because I was just in a place of let's just do it.

02:06Let's just rip the Band-Aid off.

02:07Let's just get it done.

02:08Mary came to me saying,

02:11we need to just do this divorce on paper

02:13so that you can adopt Robin's kids.

02:15I was actually sort of speechless

02:17when she told us that she was actually doing it

02:19because I thought Mary would never do this.

02:22Yeah, and Christine thinks the divorce

02:24was all Robin's idea.

02:26I remember thinking, yeah, that's a plant.

02:29And she mentioned that several times through the years.

02:32Like she was putting that in there

02:34because she would have loved that to happen.

02:36I don't think Mary felt like it was planted.

02:38I think Mary felt like it was her own idea.

02:40But Robin shuts that down and reveals

02:43she would have been okay without legally marrying Cody.

02:46The idea that I like planted an idea in Mary's head

02:49is an absolute lie.

02:50I never said it.

02:51I don't even know anyone who divorced their first wife

02:55so that the second wife could adopt kids.

02:57I've never even heard of that before.

02:59I never even wanted to be legally married to Cody.

03:02I was actually really grateful

03:04that I wasn't going to be legally married to Cody

03:07because I'd gone through so much trauma

03:10with my legal divorce in my last marriage.

03:12I was very happy and content with my spiritual marriage.

03:15I didn't need anything else.

03:16You know, you always point out how Robin was the only one

03:19that was really a priority.

03:20I definitely felt like she was the priority and stuff.

03:23So yeah, and I think that he really honestly

03:26just loved her the most.

03:28But even then, it's just got to be a really hard hit

03:31to be able to lose three incredibly wonderful,

03:35amazing, dynamic women.

03:37If you don't say so yourself.

03:39There you go.

03:40There you go.
