'Sister Wives' season 7 spoilers: fallout from Meri's catfishing scandal
"Sister Wives" has returned to TLC for a seventh season and it seems that nothing has changed in the tumultuous household.
The previous season saw Kody Brown and his four wives — Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn — beset with various problems and drama. Aside from the fallout from Meri's catfishing and Robyn giving birth to the youngest member of the household, Kody and the sister-wives also struggle to work on their relationships.
But if the third episode of the season is any indication, there's still a lot of work to be done in the family. The episode "Thanksgiving: The Good, the Bad, the Ugly" saw Meri and Janelle having a little creative difference with regard to the holiday decorations.
The two apparently agreed to work on the decorations together, but when Janelle went over to Meri's house, she discovered that everything had already been planned and that she would just be helping in crafting the decors. Janelle expressed her misgivings and says she felt it was more like Meri's project now. For her part, Kody's first wife apparently took her sister's proclamations that she is not a decorator at heart.
Meri and Janelle are not the only ones with decorating issues. People reported that Christine called Robyn's idea for the design of the baby nursery as "insane." The new mother apparently wanted to paint one side of the nursery blue for her son Solomon and the other pink for her daughter. While Kody and Janelle seemed to support her decision, Christine didn't.
"I think Robyn's insane. I think it's a stupid idea," Christine said. "I think it sounds confusing as can be."
The Brown patriarch admitted that it might not be the normal thing to do, but he also pointed out that "nothing in our lives is normal."
That will certainly be shown again this season, as Meri is expected to reveal more about what prompted her to search for a relationship online and how she was threatened by the catfisher's friend. The new season is also expected to show how Meri's daughter is dealing with the issue.
Episode 4 of "Sister Wives" season 7 is set to air on TLC on May 29 at 8 p.m.
