‘Sister Wives’ Was Meri Brown Kody’s Snitch Wife?
As of 2025, Janelle, Christine, and Meri Brown have all parted ways with their husband, Kody. The “sister wives” family setup no longer exists. However, they all tried to portray themselves as a big, happy polygamist family for years.
In hindsight, many viewers realize the Browns were never quite as happy as they pretended to be. And now, they’re dissecting family members’ behavior.
In one recent thread, a viewer brought up the sneaky snitching that went on. See what they had to say.
Was Meri Brown Primarily Responsible For Snitching?
After all this time, most viewers now know the Browns often went behind each other’s backs for the most nefarious purposes. But who was mostly responsible?
“How do you feel about Meri possibly being the wife snitch?” a viewer shared on Reddit recently.
“Sorry if it’s already been discussed. I watched Seasons 1-19 and it’s been implied that Meri may have been snitching on her sister wives to Kody to earn brownie points,” the OP continued. “What I mean by snitching is the sister wives ranting about Kody or whatever and she going with that information to Kody. Causing friction, distrust and distance with the other sister wives when they finally caught on.”
Viewers Point Out All Family Members Share Fault
Sadly, other Sister Wives viewers pointed out that all the wives treated each other poorly at one time or another — not just Meri. Kody often pitted them against each other. Each wife felt like they would rise higher in his favor if they tattled on the other women.
Reddit users added their own thoughts, including:
- “They all did this either overtly or covertly. Janelle said it, ‘Kody leaks like a sieve.’ The wives were in battle. They tried to earn favor. That is literally the way the system is designed. The best way to garner more attention and resources? Help push another wife down.”
- “Kody practiced triangulation on the women. He didn’t want them to get along. He wanted them to be blindly loyal to him. He purposely get them at odds. Then he would use it against them that they were not getting along. He is an evil horrible little man.”
- “They’ve all said many times, particularly in these last few seasons, that they all ratted out and talked badly about each other. It’s not quite the loving family that they tried to pretend they were.”
- “She admitted it last season (or early this season…can’t remember) that she was basically Kody’s spy. She would report back to him about things people were saying. She mentioned it when talking about all the things she was doing to make Kody happy.”
What do you think about the history that the wives have of speaking badly about one another to Kody? Do you think he set up the family that way on purpose? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.
