Watching the latest season sisters wife It’s like looking inside a time capsule. And that perhaps makes some moments more meaningful to me than they were intended to be.
In 2024, the Brown family’s life has changed so much. The biggest blow was the death of Janelle and Cody’s son, Garrison Brown, who committed suicide in February.
When the 19th season comes sisters wife The network acknowledged that the show, which debuted in September, was filmed a year before Garrison passed away.
But it took nearly 10 episodes for Garrison to appear in everyday conversation. And that moment was very bittersweet.
Garrison Brown was so loved.
In the latest episode of sisters wifeThe focus was on the Brown family’s children. A significant portion of the show followed Christine’s ongoing relationship with David.
Because the show was filmed so long ago, the two have only started dating at this point. But we do know that the two will get married by the end of the year.
Everyone is having a different reaction to her burgeoning relationship. Some people, like Robin, are dissatisfied. Some people, like her children, worry that she is moving too fast. But for Janelle, who is not only her best friend but also lived the life of a sister wife with her, it makes me so happy to see her happy.
In one of her confessionals, Janelle talked about how she’s enjoying seeing her “straight string” friend finally living a free life. But she knows the 180-degree shifts confuse many children. Then she tells a sweet story about Garrison.
“I remember Garrison being sent to his room for an entire evening because he used the F word (in front of Christine),” Janelle explained. “And the kids would come up and slip him food like he was in jail.”
big move
Now, aside from the opening slate of the first episode, which explains why Garrison’s death is not discussed, this is the first time the young man has been mentioned all season.
This was controversial for many fans who felt like Garrison was erased from the show. But not only was his name actually mentioned, there was also video footage of Garrison that was first shared a few years ago.
As Meri laments leaving her relationship with Robyn’s children, flashback footage of the day Arielle was born plays, and Garrison is clearly seen caring for his half-sister in her arms.
Now, Mary is holding little Ariel in her arms again, but now she’s much bigger, and instead of saying hello, she’s saying goodbye.
Meri comes home and officially announces that she is moving into a bed and breakfast and breaking her lease on the Flagstaff property. She also comes to ask Kody for help moving, calling it a “severance package.”
It’s an emotionally charged moment, and it’s hard to tell whether she’s digging Robyn and Kody or not.
But as Robyn rightly points out, this is “Kody’s choice” and now everyone has to live with the consequences.
proposal
Meanwhile, in Utah, Christine is moving into her new home with David. Yes, we’ve only been dating for 5 months and we’ve already found a house together.
Christine’s children said from the beginning how surprised they were to see how fast things were moving. When her daughter Ysabel came to see the place she actually got rather emotional.
She tearfully asks her mom if David will replace Kody as a dad, and Christine is adamant that David won’t, while Ysabel says her new stepdad is clearly more interested in having her around than her own father. I can’t help but admit that I see it. .
Christine once again explains in her confessional that David is the one for her, and it’s very hard for anyone, including their children, to have issues with it.
Finally, as the episode draws to a close, the big moment arrives. David gets down on one knee and proposes marriage with the ring Christine has already chosen.
Of course she said yes, and now the road to their wedding has officially begun.
