Sister Wives S20 E11 Recap | “We Used to Be Lovers” Why Kody's Apology to Janelle was WEIRD

Published on: 8th December, 2025

FULL EPISODE DESCRIPTION

In Sister Wives Season 20 Episode 11 (“We Used to Be Lovers”), Meri, Amber, and Jen try a Vegas Atomic Golf dating event — and it goes exactly how you think: awkward conversations, zero matches, and lots of clown jokes and eggplant references. Meanwhile, Lauren shares a personal update about her 4-year-old son’s new Type 1 diabetes diagnosis and the chaos at the ER.

Back in Flagstaff, Kody calls Janelle to apologize, but the entire conversation is stiff, strange, and borderline uncomfortable. From “Are you feeling healthy?” to revisiting early jealousy, Kody’s attempt at accountability raises more questions than answers.

Christine and David offer a calmer moment as they play pickleball and discuss whether Christine should accept Kody’s olive branch for the sake of the kids. Robyn has an unexpected reaction when producers ask how she’d feel if any wife came back — and it looks a lot more like panic than hope.


If you love Sister Wives deep dives, body-language reading, and relationship analysis, this episode has it all.


Hosted by Lauren Clark (attorney, reality TV lover) and Dee (paralegal, truth-teller)

New recaps weekly for Sister Wives, 90 Day Fiancé, Love Is Blind, and more.
