Bigamy investigation, shmigamy investigation.

Considering Kody Brown has already taken the plunge four times, it's not unfathomable that he could be suffering from an itchy ring finger.

Rumor has it that the Sister Wives patriarch, who married fourth wife Robyn in May after a 16-year drought during which he presided over a family of only three wives and 13 children, is looking for a fifth wife to round out the softball team fold.

We asked around and learned that this rumor is...

So false!

"National Enquirer has a story that the polygamists [of Sister Wives] are courting a fifth wife. This is completely fabricated," a rep for TLC tells E! News.

"It's a complete fabrication," the network reiterated. Kody Brown "is not courting a fifth wife."

The Enquirer reported Brown had mentioned during a brainstorming session with TLC executives that he was considering putting himself back on the bustling Levi, Utah, dating market—but wives Meri, Janelle, Christine and Robyn totally freaked out, putting the kibosh on that idea for now.

Right, because going for concurrent marriage No. 5 would be overdoing it.
