‘Sister Wives’ Kody Admits Real Reason He Needs Meri As A ‘Friend’
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:
“I think if I were single and Meri was single, would I date her? No, I wouldn’t. She is upset that I’ve dragged this out so long. I don’t blame her. I’m looking in this triple breakup like Christine’s, then Janelle and now Meri. I don’t want Meri to be in this place where she’s taking this toll, this direction that both Christine and Janelle have taken. Oh, yeah, ‘I need one more enemy right now.’ That’s why I’m trying to be in this place with Meri where it’s like, ‘Hey, can we just be friends and move on?'”
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.

If Kody hadn’t wanted anything to do with Meri for years, why did he let her continue, to contribute her money to him? For his toys, that crappy art in his house? Didn’t want a relationship with her, but let her give $$$ to the family—especially the $$$ from her house sale in Vegas. He didn’t even bother to help her with the down payment for her B & B. The nerve of him to pretend, he had no idea the 3 wives were kicking him to the curb? The way he treated them, for years. Kody is really a piece of sh*t, no wonder his kids don’t want anything to do with him. Kudos to the wives that ditched him, should have done years ago. I really hope Meri & Janelle follow Christine, and sue his ass, for all the $$$$ they gave him. They may have not been legally married to him, but I’m sure there is a paper trail of the $$$$ that went into Kody’s account.
Sadie you are 100% right. I always wondered how he could afford his cars, toys, etc etc…his trips to see his buddies while the wives scrambled to make money. He is a piece of garbage. I have watched the show from the beginning and how disrespectful he was to all the wives but the “poor victim ” Robyn. The kids suffered while they watched Robyn’s kids most of his attention…millions of viewers of the show can’t be wrong.
