Will There Be a Season 21 of Sister Wives?
Yes, Sister Wives season 21 is happening, with people close to the family saying there is “guaranteed one more season for sure.” Mykelti Brown (Kody and Christine’s daughter) recently shared on the Growing Up in Polygamy podcast that filming for at least one more season is underway, clearing up months of fan speculation about whether season 20 was the end.
Some reports and fan discussions describe season 21 as likely the last “for now,” but there is still no official word from TLC on anything beyond that single additional season, which keeps the future a bit open-ended.
For viewers who felt season 20 played like a long goodbye, this update means there is still more to see of how the family rebuilds, separates, or simply moves on in different directions.
When and Where to Watch Sister Wives Season 21?
There is no official Sister Wives season 21 release date yet, but current reporting and fan-industry sources suggest a possible late 2026 premiere on TLC, likely in a fall slot similar to past seasons.
TLC has not posted a public press release with the exact date, so at this point the safest information is that season 21 is confirmed but still “date TBA.” Viewers can expect new episodes to air first on TLC in the United States during prime-time Sunday scheduling, with reruns and on-demand access through TLC’s usual cable and streaming partners once the season goes live.
In recent years, episodes have also appeared on digital platforms linked to Discovery and TLC after broadcast, so fans who do not watch live can still catch up comfortably the next day or later in the week.
Cast of Sister Wives Season 21
The core Brown family will continue into season 21, but with a different dynamic than the early years. Mykelti has stated that Janelle Brown has filmed for season 21, even though her social media sometimes hinted she might step back from the show.
Robyn Brown and Kody Brown are expected to remain central figures, especially as the story now leans more into the aftermath of separations, co-parenting, and Kody’s attempts to repair relationships with his adult children.
The season is also likely to feature:
-
Meri Brown’s new life direction and her upcoming memoir, which has already been mentioned in fan discussions and coverage.
-
Updates on Christine Brown’s separate path after her earlier exit, especially as her book and public comments continue to shape how viewers see the family’s history.
-
More focus on the adult kids, such as Mykelti and others, whose perspectives increasingly drive conversation around the show’s future.
About Sister Wives
Sister Wives is a long-running TLC reality series that follows Kody Brown, his wives, and their children through a changing plural family, shifting from one household vision into multiple separate lives over time.
The show began as a portrait of polygamy and “one big family,” but in recent seasons it has turned into something closer to a story about divorce, forgiveness, distance, and what happens when a very public family tries to redraw its boundaries on camera.
Season 20, which wrapped with tell-all specials in early January 2026, highlighted Kody’s apology efforts, tense conversations with his ex-wives, and new emotional confessions that suggested closure and new beginnings at the same time.
For anyone wondering “is Sister Wives cancelled or over,” the current answer is that it is not cancelled yet: one more season is on the way, with season 21 confirmed by family insiders, while anything beyond that remains uncertain and will likely depend on ratings, fan interest, and how naturally the story can continue.
Disclaimer: All information about Sister Wives season 21, including renewal status, cast, and timing, is based on publicly available reports, interviews, and fan-industry coverage as of early 2026 and may change if TLC updates its plans.
