'Sister Wives' season 8 air date news update: TLC to renew series for Mykelti and baby Ariella?

Kody Brown and his four wives are under a lot of pressure as fans wait for good news from TLC regarding the premiere of "Sister Wives" season 8. While there is no green light given for the series' renewal yet, there are reports pointing to one due to the good vibes that Mykelti and baby Ariella are bringing into the family.

(Facebook/Sister Wives)Will TLC renew "Sister Wives" for an eighth season to shine the spotlight on Mykelti Brown's engagement and wedding?

Mykelti is one of Kody's children with Christine, the polygamist's third wife. The engaged Brown daughter is expected to be preparing for her big wedding and though there is no confirmation from the network, it is believed that Mykelti's upcoming wedding will be the reason for "Sister Wives" season 8 to come into fruition.

Television viewers are undeniably always ready to catch up with weddings and engagements, and TLC seemed to tease the legitimacy of the rumors as it released some of Mykelti's engagement photos on social media. On the other hand, the released photos could also mean another thing more than a plot for the upcoming season so fans shouldn't get too excited.

While Mykelti's wedding may not be such a big deal to TLC, baby Ariella Mae, who was born to Kody and Robyn on January, is definitely the big catch. Ever since the beautiful baby girl was born, it seems that peace started to be retained in the Brown household, even after the shocking revelations in season 6 about Meri's catfishing scandal.

Just this weekend, TLC released some of the cutest baby photos of "Ari," as she is fondly called by her huge clan. The Facebook post has since gained a lot of likes and comments from viewers, with many pointing out that baby Ariella Mae's arrival into the Brown family should be a good reason to renew "Sister Wives" for an eighth season run.

The network has yet to announce any developments for the reality series, but for now, fans can stay hopeful that the happy events this year in the Brown household will prompt TLC to make a big announcement soon.
