Kody’s Surprising Move: Severing Ties with Meri’s Transgender Child

Kody Brown has caused speculation about his views on the transgender community after he unfollowed Leon Brown, the child of Meri Brown who recently transitioned. The “Sister Wives” patriarch’s decision to cut ties with Leon has led to accusations of transphobia.

Why did Kody Brown unfollow Leon Brown? ‘Sister Wives’ patriarch speculated to be transphobic as he cuts ties with Meri’s trans child

Last year, Meri Brown’s child, Leon, revealed that he identifies as transgender. However, it appears that there is a strained relationship between Kody Brown and Leon since Kody is no longer following Leon on social media. Some speculate that Kody may not be accepting of Leon’s identity, while others wonder if there is another reason for the tension between them. Kody has always been known for his traditional views, and his daughter Gwendlyn recently commented that his beliefs are becoming more conservative. Kody and his wife Robyn have not publicly commented on Leon’s announcement, and now Kody’s actions seem to indicate disapproval of his child. Leon has since moved away from the “Sister Wives” family to live in a safer community.

Kody Brown, a star of the reality show “Sister Wives,” has reportedly unfollowed his child Leon on social media, indicating his lack of support for Leon’s transition. According to Katie Joy’s Instagram post, Kody follows several accounts that spew hatred against transgender people. Kody and Robyn Brown have allegedly made it clear that they do not support Leon’s transition and are not accepting of the LGBTQ, despite pretending to be accepting on TV. Leon came out in June 2022 and has struggled with the Brown family accepting their identity. Meri, Leon’s other parent, has cut ties with Kody and Robyn due to their lack of support. On Instagram, Leon indirectly criticized Kody’s conservative beliefs and claimed that being trans is a gift. While Kody and Robyn may not support Leon, Meri is a big supporter of their child and often displays this openly.
