Sister Wives season 18 is underway, but with a lot of the storylines still being part of drama viewers are very much aware of, some are wondering when the season was filmed. Kody Brown, the patriarch of the Brown family, has been facing issues with his multiple wives for years. Whether it’s ensuring they all have enough attention and don’t feel excluded or peacemaking between the women, Kody has always taken a more hands-off approach to his part in the marriage. Though he is the person who has brought Meri Brown, Janelle Brown, Christine Brown, and Robyn Brown together, Kody has always wanted the women to tackle their issues.
After Christine moved away from the family’s area, things began getting more pressured for Kody and his remaining wives. All three women felt the strain of losing Christine, and things quickly escalated for Janelle and Meri, who had been having doubts about their marriages with Kody for years. While Sister Wives season 17 documented Christine’s departure, Sister Wives season 18 will answer long-held questions about Janelle and Meri’s decisions to leave. While viewers have been aware of the splits for close to a year, Sister Wives season 18 will finally provide the details that have been missing.
Sister Wives Season 18 Was Filmed In 2022
Sister Wives season 18 was filmed in late 2022 and spans several months into 2023. There was a break between Sister Wives season 17’s filming ending and Sister Wives season 18’s filming beginning, but not much of one because the first several episodes of the new season take place prior to and during the holiday season. Viewers will pick up very close to where they left off, with the family still incredibly strained and not doing much communicating. As many know, Janelle and Meri shared their separation announcements in late 2022. The upcoming Sister Wives season 18 episodes will surely cover both decisions in depth.
Where Was Sister Wives Season 18 Filmed?
Sister Wives season 18 is the first season where the main cast members aren’t all living in the same area. Kody, Meri, Janelle, and Robyn are all still living in Flagstaff, Arizona, where most of their scenes on Sister Wives are filmed. Christine left the family during Sister Wives season 17. The shift has had catastrophic aftershocks and has put a decent amount of distance between herself and the rest of the family. Christine now lives in Salt Lake City, Utah, which is roughly 8 hours away from Flagstaff. Christine is far enough away that she will feel absent from the rest of the Brown family.
With Sister Wives season 18 underway, there are still many lingering questions that viewers have about what’s happening with the Brown family. As Kody’s marriages crumble on screen, things are still playing out in real-time for the family. Kody and Robyn’s marriage, which is the only surviving relationship from their original plural marriage, is still rocky and moving through the shifts and changes that come with Kody’s other separations. Sister Wives season 18 will be an interesting look at the difficulty of change in such a large family.
