Special Forces: Here’s What Cast Members Think About Kody Brown’s Behavior — “He’s Childlike & Misogynistic!” 😱😱
Special Forces: Here’s What Cast Members Think About Kody Brown’s Behavior — “He’s Childlike & Misogynistic!” 😱😱 When Kody Brown joined Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test, fans were stunned — the Sister Wives patriarch known for his polygamous family drama was now trading confessionals and family feuds for military-style challenges and brutal endurance tests. It was supposed to be his redemption arc, a chance to prove that he was more than the controversial reality star audiences loved to criticize. But according to insiders and cast members who trained alongside him, Kody’s behavior on set quickly became one of the biggest talking points behind the scenes — and not for the reasons he hoped. From the very first day of filming, Kody arrived with his trademark swagger, joking that years of managing four wives had prepared him for anything. But the tone shifted quickly when the drills began. “He came in acting like he was the main character,” one cast member revealed. “He thought everyone was going to respect him as this alpha male, but honestly, most of us couldn’t take him seriously.” Sources on set described Kody as “overconfident to the point of delusion,” saying he struggled with authority and often clashed with the instructors. “He didn’t like being told what to do,” said another participant. “He tried to charm the staff, then argued when things didn’t go his way. It was exhausting.” During one challenge involving freezing water, Kody reportedly refused to follow instructions, claiming he “knew how to lead people through crisis.” The drill sergeant’s response was brutal: “Then lead yourself into the water, Brown.” The cast watched as he hesitated, then tried to laugh it off — but no one was laughing with him. “He just didn’t get it,” another contestant said. “He acted like it was still Sister Wives, where he could control the narrative. But out here, there are no edits, no sympathy, and no one cares about your ego.” Word spread quickly among the crew that Kody’s energy — once charismatic on TV — came off as abrasive in real life. One female contestant called him “childlike and misogynistic,” describing how he often interrupted women during group discussions or dismissed their input. “He acted like the men were supposed to lead and the women should just listen,” she said. “We weren’t in his living room — we were on a battlefield simulation. Everyone’s equal out there.” Tensions reportedly boiled over during a team-building exercise when Kody tried to take control and lecture his group about “family order and discipline.” The irony wasn’t lost on anyone. “We all looked at each other like, is he serious?” said one source. “It was like he couldn’t turn off the patriarch act.” Even the production crew began noticing the pattern. One insider claimed that Kody often asked for extra camera attention, trying to steer conversations toward his personal redemption story. “He wanted to be seen as misunderstood,” they said. “But the more he talked, the more people saw exactly why his family fell apart.” When the grueling days turned into nights filled with exhaustion and reflection, most cast members bonded through shared vulnerability — except Kody. “He couldn’t open up,” said a fellow recruit. “When we talked about our fears or past mistakes, he got defensive. He’d say things like, ‘People just don’t get me,’ or ‘I’ve been betrayed too many times.’ It was all about him.” The instructors, known for breaking even the toughest celebrities, reportedly singled him out more than once. “They called him out for lack of teamwork,” said a source. “They said leadership isn’t barking orders — it’s earning respect. That didn’t sit well with him.” Off camera, things didn’t improve. Several contestants described Kody as socially awkward and prone to emotional swings. “One minute he was cracking jokes like a teenager, the next he was sulking because someone questioned him,” said one participant. “It was like watching a kid who never learned how to share.” Despite the mounting tension, Robyn Brown — his last remaining wife — reportedly cheered him on from home, posting supportive messages about his courage and strength. But viewers who saw early footage weren’t as impressed. Clips leaked from the set showed Kody struggling through basic drills while others powered ahead. One viral moment captured him shouting, “I’m not used to being bossed around!” to which the instructor coldly replied, “That’s why you’re here.” Fans quickly flooded comment sections with reactions ranging from laughter to secondhand embarrassment. “This is what happens when reality meets reality,” one viewer wrote. Another joked, “Maybe he should’ve brought all four wives — he might’ve listened to one of them.” As the season aired, producers hinted that Kody’s time on Special Forces might be shorter than expected. Without spoiling too much, sources confirmed that he didn’t make it to the end. “He couldn’t handle being stripped of control,” said a crew member. “The physical part was tough, but the emotional part broke him.” After his exit, rumors swirled that Kody blamed editing and “biased storytelling,” echoing his usual defense from Sister Wives. But this time, few bought it. The footage spoke for itself — a man undone not by others, but by his own reflection. Even fellow cast members admitted to feeling a strange mix of pity and frustration. “You want to root for him,” one said. “But every time he has a chance to show growth, he goes back to blaming everyone else.” Still, in a rare quiet moment near the end of his appearance, Kody was reportedly overheard saying, “Maybe I need to listen more than I talk.” Whether that was genuine insight or another performance, no one could tell. But one thing’s for sure: Special Forces stripped Kody Brown of the illusion of control, forcing him to confront the man he’s become. And while some call it karma, others call it clarity. Either way, his fellow cast members agree — it was the first time Kody Brown couldn’t rewrite the story, and the world saw him exactly as he is
