Back in 2018, the Brown family moved to Flagstaff and coincidentally, Dayton Brown announced that he has been accepted into a college that is also located in Arizona. Although when Dayton shared this news with the family, Kody and Robyn Brown acted oblivious, fans feel this was a pre-planned move. Seeing how Robyn couldn’t stay away from Dayton, especially knowing that he was diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome, it seems obvious that the move was planned to support him. However, in doing so, they did Gabriel dirty. Why did the Flagstaff move affect Gabriel? Why was he heartbroken? Keep reading to find out the details!
Gabriel Brown Was The Rising Star In His School
While most children in the Brown family struggled with the big move, Gabriel was the one who was affected the most. Even his mother, Janelle Brown was reluctant at first about yanking her son from the Nevada school so close to his graduation. However, leaving him behind wasn’t an option. So, despite not wanting to, Gabe was forced to move to Flagstaff.

Gabriel was also the most vocal against moving to Flagstaff. He was 16 and about to start his junior year of high school. Moreover, the Sister Wives star ranked 10th among over 800 students academically. In short, he was a rising star and even ranked among the best students on the wrestling team. He was friends with almost the entire school and had a girlfriend he was seeing for almost a year. So, giving up his well-established life in Las Vegas was heartbreaking.
Kody Brown Risked His Children’s Future For Dayton
Talking about how Kody and Robyn planned the move in favor of their son Dayton, a fan shared a video on Reddit. The video showed Kody announcing the move after which Dayton announced that he had received a scholarship to a school in Arizona.
“Kody acting like it’s a surprise and as though Dayton hasn’t already been accepted! Sneaky, awful people,” wrote a Sister Wives fan.

Another agreed and stated, “So transparent. He acts like he didn’t know and then asks Robyn if she wanted to announce the news. What news Kody?? 37 seconds ago you didn’t know there was news.”

A third fan mentioned how Kody’s non-favorite kids struggled from the move. They wrote, “The other kids all know the truth. It’s so sad. They’re all giving up their futures so that Kody can cater to his favorite wife. The fact that Kody can’t just be honest about it is gut-wrenching. He could have just said that he and Robyn are moving to Flagstaff and that the rest of the family can join when they graduate or whatever…. But he ripped his other children from their schools under threat and guilt. He’s terrible.”
Fans Feel Kody Was Only Concerned For Robyn
A fourth fan even suggested that he could have simply let Meri, Janelle, and Christine stay behind with the kids. They claimed that at the time of this big move, he wasn’t physically involved with the other wives and only Robyn mattered to him. So, he could have simply let them be in Las Vegas. Uprooting his other kids for the favorite bunch was cruel to the former.
