Christine, 49, Janelle, 52, and Meri, 50, "can't compete" with Kody's "favorite" spouse, Robyn, 43, a source has revealed to

“The other wives can’t compete against Robyn. Robyn and Kody are a dream couple. She has him wrapped around her finger," they claimed.

The father of 18 still treats his newest addition “like a queen and takes care of her,” the insider added.

“They act like they’re still newlyweds. They’re still very much in love.”

Robyn and Kody were legally married in 2014 so that the polygamist could adopt her three children Solomon, 10, Aurora, 19, and David, 21, from a previous marriage.

The informant added that she will be “forever grateful” to him for doing so.

“She sees through his mistakes. He’s very focused on their family," they explained.

In order to marry Robyn, Kody divorced his first wife of 50 years, Meri, though the two remain in a "spiritual union."

The reality star was also "spiritually married" to Christine since 1994 and Janelle since 1993.

TOUGH DECISION

However, in a shock to the public, Kody and Christine announced that they would be splitting ways after 25 years together.

The couple shared the news in two separate Instagram posts this week, with the busy mother noting that the decision was extremely "difficult."

“After more than 25 years together, Kody and I have grown apart and I have made the difficult decision to leave,” she told fans.

“We will continue to be a strong presence in each other’s lives as we parent our beautiful children and support our wonderful family.

"At this time, we ask for your grace and kindness as we navigate through this stage within our family.”

HEADED FOR DISASTER

However, an insider remarked that the breakup was to be expected, as the pair had been on the rocks for years after Robyn joined the family.

“It’s no shock. She’s been in the process of leaving him for a while,” an informant told after the news broke.

“The big reason why she split from him is because Kody has been completely devoted to Robyn for the past five or six years. That hasn’t changed at all.”

Meri and Kody have also had a difficult time with the transition, and though they remain together, for a while she was living apart from the rest of the family in Utah.

LOVERS OR FRIENDS?

However, Janelle has found no issue with their arrangement, as the source explained that she and her spouse are "really good friends."

“He sees her more as a friend and she is totally fine with that. They have a respectful relationship,” they added.

“She’s not someone who needs romance. She’s really easygoing and goes with the flow.”

Earlier this week, Christine addressed fan questions over the end of her marriage, which she says will all be answered on the next season of Sister Wives.

DRAMATIC FORESHADOWING

The TLC star made the announcement on her  after her followers started asking about her breakup.

She began: "Wonderful Group of Mine: First off, I want to thank you for your ongoing support.
