News - Sister Wives' Madison Brush Hasn't Spoken to Dad Kody Brown in Years

Madison Brush is still working through the sins of her father. Amid her ongoing estrangement from dad Kody, Madison—the second oldest of his and Janelle's six kids—admitted on the Sept. 28 episode that she's still struggling with the separation. "You want your dad to show up," the mother of four shared in a confessional alongside husband Caleb Brush. "You want reconciliation. I know I played a part and I’m angry because I’m still trying to learn to not be disappointed." It's a lesson she's struggling to master. "I’m still learning how to just see him for who he is," she noted. "I’m trying to understand that maybe he didn’t know how to show up. He might be hurting." He also might not be willing to cede too much ground. Kody stressed his desire to have healing with Meri, Janelle, third wife Christine Brown and their children, explaining, "I think we're in an impasse here because this healing can only happen on their terms only."
