Sister Wives

The term is notable as it brought the dynamics of a modern, self-described "plural marriage" family into mainstream popular culture. The series has provided a platform for discussions on non-traditional family structures, religious freedom, and the legal and emotional complexities of polygamy in the United States, making the Browns one of the most publicly recognized polygamist families.

Recently, the family has been in the news due to ongoing developments in their personal lives and financial affairs. Current headlines indicate a significant family dispute concerning the sale of their shared property, Coyote Pass, with reports of a standoff and confidentiality agreements among the former spouses. Other recent news includes coverage of a new grandchild in the family and minor personal updates about the cast members from the latest season of the show.
