What is the real reason that Sister Wives star, Kody Brown needs former first wife, Meri Brown as a “friend”? He has repeatedly pushed her away and maintained that he does not care what she does with her life. So, why would he want her around in any capacity? Keep reading for all of the details.
Sister Wives Kody Admits Real Reason He Needs Meri As A ‘Friend’
Kody Brown is done with Meri Brown and has been for years. They were not intimate for over a decade which was something she just dealt with. When Kody withdrew intimacy from his marriage to Christine Brown Woolley, Sister Wives fans saw her pack up all of his stuff and move him out of their home. Yet, Meri held on and it did not help that fourth wife, Robyn Brown encouraged her to stick around and be a part of the family. She did not want to give up on the plural marriage dream and likely had ulterior motives.
Eventually, Meri realized it was never happening between her and Kody so she gathered him to share she was leaving the family and Flagstaff. She has a B&B in Utah and that was where she would be resting her head for the time being. Yet, she still had family business to tend to in Flagstaff, including Coyote Pass. Despite Kody’s disdain for Meri, he admitted that he still wanted her as a “friend” but why? According to People, he shared his reasoning on the Sunday, September 28th episode of Sister Wives.
It was his eldest son, Logan Brown’s wedding in Las Vegas to Michelle Petty. However, they were referred to as the bride and groom with no footage used or cameras allowed. It was the first time everyone would be together since the entire family fell apart. Kody shared his feelings and where he stood with all of the wives. Then, he got to Meri:
Fans Adore Meri
Since Meri Brown has left Kody Brown, Sister Wives fans have a newfound respect for the B&B owner. They feel that she has finally come into herself and is so much more likable:
- Meri looks younger, happier, prettier….you go girl!!!
- I pray that Mari finds a wonderful person who loves and honors her . May her new journey be filled with blessings
- Get em girl!!! I still find it so disgusting how her and Cody started the whole thing and he did her that way
Of course, some viewers noted how Kody has been pushing Meri away for years, she just did not want to acknowledge it. Now, she is off on her own and feeling better than ever. In a previous episode, she headed to their Church to ask for a “release” which is their version of a divorce.
Do you think Kody and Meri should be friends or should she just let him go off into the sunset? Let us know and watch Sister Wives Sundays on TLC.
