‘DISTANCING THEMSELVES’ What happened to Kody Brown’s son-in-law Tony Padron from Sister Wives?

TONY Padron is married to Mykelti – one of Kody Brown’s 18 children.

Here’s everything you need to know about the Sister Wive’s star.

Who is Kody Brown?
Kody Brown, 54, is a father of 18 children from his four marriages to Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn.

The TV personality has been the center of the TLC show, Sister Wives, since it premiered in 2010.

Brown, originally from Wyoming, first got married in 1990 to Meri Brown and was “spiritually married to his two other wives, Janelle Brown and Christine Brown.

But Sister Wives fans were soon introduced to his fourth wife, Robyn, who he spiritually married in 2010 and legally married in 2014 after divorcing Meri.

The first season of the 17-season show followed Robyn’s entrance into the family, as the other three wives had been living and raising their children together for 16 years.

In November 2021, Christine and Kody announced their split after being married for over 25 years, and in December 2022 Janelle and Kody confirmed they were officially separated.

The Sister Wives clan, originally from Utah, relocated to Las Vegas and Arizona so that they could continue practicing polygamy.

In the recently released trailer for season 18 of the hit show, Janelle and Kody are shown in the midst of a heated argument.

“You are now pushing me out the door,” she tells Kody in the clip.

But when Kody denies this, she adds. “I think you’re manipulating.”

Christine also makes an appearance in the trailer, saying, “I left Kody ’cause I could see he had favorites.”

And, Meri admits, “I’ve heard [Kody] refer to us as friends,” instead of his wives.

Who is Tony Padron?
Tony Padron, 28, is married to Christine and Kody’s daughter Mykelti.

The couple live together in Utah after going on their first date in October 2015.

Although Mykelti’s mother, Christine Brown, was reluctant to agree, Kody gave Tony his blessing to marry his daughter.

He is one of Kody’s three sons-in-law.

Mykelti and Tony’s wedding controversially caused a stir on Sister Wives after Kody’s daughter rushed the nuptials and Kody was left with the bill.

It portrayed the couple as selfish and bratty according to reception from viewers.

Initially, Tony worked in a bank, but he revealed on the reality series that he quit his career to work as a video game streamer from home instead.

Tony and Mykelti shared that they were expecting a baby girl on October 26, 2020, with Mykelti giving birth to Avalon Asa Padron on April 5, 2021.

The couple then welcomed twin boys, Archer Banks Padron and Ace McCord Padron, in November 2022.

While some fans continue to criticize Tony’s video game career, others value his seemingly happy marriage with Mykelti.

What happened to Tony Padron, Kody Brown’s son-in-law?
Tony Padron, real name Antonio Padron, recently revealed how he lost nearly 100lbs in ten months.

Late last month, the 28-year-old gave an update on his Instagram and shared incredible snaps of his new toned figure.

“Long-term consistency is the only way to true weight loss,” he wrote.

“I remember at the beginning actually being worried and anxious about weighing myself. Worried that I wouldn’t see any budge in weight difference. Worried that I would see too much progress and stop my new habits. I logged every time I stepped on the scale and made a graph of it.”

In the post, Tony added a screenshot of the note he made logging his weight since beginning his journey back in September 2022 when he weighed 320 lbs – and on July 20, he was down to 226 lbs.

“It’s not a dramatic drop. Just a gradual slope downwards,” he added.

“Through making these long-term habits I’ve been able to sustain a healthier lifestyle. Taking the right supplements and keeping that gym life.”

Tony has been on his weight loss journey alongside Mykelti who also shared snaps of her own progress.

“BEFORE & AFTER !!! @tonychessnut and I have gone through a major life shift. It was time to get healthy,” she wrote.

“We wanted something sustainable, not just quick weight loss, but something that would last and keep us healthy in the long term. It’s been a great journey that we’re still working on every day to keep our bodies moving in the right direction.”
