Kody Brown of 'Sister Wives' and his four wives depart 'The Today Show' in Rockefeller Plaza.

Four wives in a polygamous family who star in a reality TV show have broken down in tears after realising they could be jailed.

The huge Brown family have recently been seen in the opening episode of the second series of Sister Wives. By the end of the show they were facing possible jail time following a police probe and could also lose their jobs.

One of Kody Brown's four wives, Meri, is seen bursting into tears as she admits: 'I have been doing a lot of thinking since the investigation came up as to whether or not I would do this again.

'It has the potential of messing up our job situations. It has the potential of splitting our family. It scares me to death the possibility of being taken away from my family, or to have Kody taken away, or the kids being split up. It scares me to death.'

When the other wives were asked if they would do it all again, Janelle was defiant: 'I would choose it again - I'm tired of being afraid.'

Robyn also started to cry, but insisted: 'I would choose it again - I don't want my kids growing up repressed.'

However, fourth wife Christine admitted: 'I don't know.'
