Meri Brown, Kody Brown’s Ex-Wife, Says She No Longer Has Any Sister Wives: "They Don’t Have My Back"
Meri Brown, a prominent figure on TLC's Sister Wives, has been an integral part of Kody Brown's polygamous family since the beginning, navigating through numerous highs and lows by his side. Despite this, she has been out of her plural marriage for several months now after getting separated from Kody. While Christine Brown and Janelle Brown, Kody's other former wives, still regard themselves as 'sister wives,' Meri has gone on the record to clarify that she no longer has any sister wives. Cheat Sheet reported that Meri is proudly identifying herself as single, a cautious choice that she wishes to convey to the viewers.
In a recent sneak peek of the upcoming Sister Wives tell-all episode, Meri made a shocking revelation. She spoke about her complete disconnection from the Brown family. Furthermore, engaging in a candid conversation with host Sukanya Krishnan, Meri disclosed that over the past decade, her best friend Jenn has been the only individual she's placed her utmost trust in, according to TODAY's report. When Krishnan inquired further about why Meri doesn't share the same sentiment towards her former sister wives, the discussion took a different turn. "They don’t have my back. Oh, by the way, I don’t have sister wives, just FYI," Meri replied.
Meri further elaborated on the dynamics of sister wives, stating that the notion of a 'sister wife' is only valid if the various women are married to the same man. However, Meri seems to be interested in exploring ways to have a deeper bond with Robyn Brown. Despite the twists and turns in their shared experiences, these two women appear to have managed to sustain a meaningful friendship over the past years. Additionally, Robyn has always been outspoken about her sincere wish for Kody and Meri to mend their strained relationship, a sentiment that was visible during Sister Wives season 18. Nevertheless, the complexity of their situation does have some roots in Robyn's romantic relationship with Kody.
On the other hand, Christine has been clear in expressing her sentiments regarding Meri, making it clear that she has no intention of developing a friendship with her. The apparent lack of desire to have a bond with Meri has sparked speculation among certain fans, who believe that there’s a sense of resentment directed toward Meri. Meanwhile, Janelle holds the perspective that she doesn't share common ground with either Meri or Robyn. Despite this, she maintains an open stance, affirming that she holds no feelings of enmity or ill will towards anyone within their familial circle.
