'Sister Wives' Season 8 PREMIERE: WATCH Exclusive First Clip Of New Drama, Madison & Mykelti Weddings, Meri & Mariah Catfish Struggles & More [VIDEO]
Sister Wives will officially be returning to TLC with new episodes on November 27, and the drama and the high stakes for the Brown family are at perhaps their highest point, as fallout continues from Meri's Catfishing scandal, and the family prepares for both Madison and Mykelti's weddings.
In a press release from TLC, things will be a "roller coaster ride" for Kody, Meri, Janelle, Christine and Robyn as they deal with the new rivalries, the disputes, the relationships, and so much more.
"While Janelle's daughter Madison's wedding prep is in full swing for the big day, Christine's daughter, Mykelti also announces she wants to get engaged, and to a guy who she met just five months earlier. Chrsitine strongly disapproves of their rushed plans, but a little compromise and the love-struck determination of the couple, win her over and lead to an emotional proposal," the press release reads.
Christine isn't the only person who seems to be wary of Mykelti's plans to marry her boyfriend, Tony, however, as Kody also sits him down in a preview clip to discuss the plans, hinting that if the plan to get married is simply about sex, then they should wait, and Christine expresses her concerns over how Mykelti actually acts around her beau.
"You've waited 21 years to have sex. You can handle another six months," Kody says to Tony in the clip.
"You're not getting married," Tony later says in an interview with Mykelti. "It's us."
Meanwhile, the gap between Meri and her daughter Mariah is only continuing to grow as Mariah is still having a hard time forgiving her mother for what transpired due to her Catfishing incident.
"The catfishing incident looms over the family as Mariah is still furious with her mother. When Kody tries to mend fences between Meri and Mariah, he is forced to deal with the hard truth that his own relationship with his first wife is in shambles," the press release states.

However, in the clip, when Kody sits with Mariah and tries to shoulder some of the blame for what happened with Meri, Mariah will refuse to accept what he has to say.
"I spent the entire summer telling her that she was being Catfished, and she wouldn't listen to me," Mariah says. "She just did a lot of really s***ty things and I haven't forgiven her."
"I'm not doubting that I was somewhat of a catalyst," Kody says.
"I don't think so," Mariah replies.
Finally, with tensions at a high within the family, they will try to take a trip to Utah to hopefully bring themselves back together, before they fall apart completely.
"The family retreats to a remote lodge, high in the mountains of Utah, to try to pull it all together. Maybe the high mountain air will bring the family to its senses...pr maybe not," the press release states.
Sister Wives returns Nov. 27 at 8 p.m. with two-hour episodes on TLC.
