TLC’s Seeking Sister Wife returned for a second season on January 20, with all but one of the families returning from Season 1. The missing family was the Brineys, which included Drew Briney as well as his three wives April, Angela and Auralee, plus their combined 15 children. The Briney family has since revealed that they were filming right up until a little more than a month ago, so why are they not on Season 2?
Seeking Sister Wife‘s Colton Winder and his wives Tami and Sophie seem to be extremely happy in their plural marriage as they contemplate adding a third sister wife. But before Colton and first wife Tami opened their hearts to polygamy, he suffered with severe depression and suicidal thoughts.
When you have a historically polygamous religion that is also historically connected to a specific geographical region, then it makes sense that there would often be overlap between families. That is exactly the case with TLC’s two current plural marriage reality shows as Sister Wives daughter Aspyn Brown recently became engaged to Mitch Thompson, the brother of Seeking Sister Wives star Vanessa Alldredge!
On the most recent episode of TLC’s Seeking Sister Wife, the Briney family opened up about the risks that they were taking by appearing on a reality show while living together in the state of Utah, where cohabitation is illegal, including a discussion with their children about lying to others in order to avoid arrest. The Briney’s would eventually move out of the state of Utah because of the risk, and they took to social media to defend their stance on the ethics of lying under certain circumstances.
TLC knows how to capitalize on a good thing! The network has just announced a brand new reality series that combines two of its tried and true concepts — polygamy and looking for love — called Seeking Sister Wife. Keep reading to watch the preview trailer and meet the families looking to add a wife.
