‘Sister Wives’ Fans Are Over It, Meri Brown Gives Fans Whiplash

Meri Brown - Sister Wives

In Sister Wives Season 19 star, Meri Brown is transitioning through the processes of leaving Kody Brown and the plural marriage. While she looks better than ever, fans can’t keep up with her back-and-forth attitude. Some fans feel like they have whiplash and they are over it.

Meri Brown Has Come A Long Way

In Sister Wives Season 19, Meri Brown has made many breakthroughs. She has begun to see through the words of Robyn and Kody Brown. Now she is looking for actions that match. Jenn Sullivan is keeping her in check each time she is tempted to take people at face value without seeing their follow-through. Sadly, the many years of blind trust made her easy to manipulate. But fans are ready for Meri to stick to her guns and fire freely.

Sweet And Salty

But in interviews, Sister Wives star, Meri Brown keeps sweet and refuses to say anything bad. At times she is living her newfound power and in other moments she falls back into her peacekeeping norms. On Meri’s Instagram page, she professes how proud she is to be “speaking her truth.” Furthermore, she adds, she is “living authentically” to herself and “not living to please others while losing myself.” Likewise, she is speaking more forward about her “worthiness” and not trying to be “mean.” But these are new skills she is learning. She wants her followers to understand she isn’t “waking up” intending to hurt others, but instead is focusing on standing up for herself. However, since assertiveness in women was seen as evil in her upbringing, it is hard to rewire.

  • One user adds, “Salty and sweet. All the best things!”

Sister Wives Fans Are Over It, Meri Brown Gives Fans Whiplash

Furthermore, Sister Wives star, Meri Brown adds, “Many years I’ve tread lightly, holding to the belief that kindness would prevail. I still cling to that hope. I also understand that I deserve to speak my truth, and sometimes, those two ideals just can’t coexist.” However, now she refuses to just take the high road hoping things will change like she has in the past. In the face of haters, she will be salty and stand her ground. While she is searching for what brings her “peace” she won’t sit back and let others tread on her. Seemingly, Meri Brown’s attempt to balance kindness and assertiveness isn’t landing well with all her followers. Many fans are cheering Meri on during her new adventure, but some need her to clarify more.

  • One commenter points out Meri is giving them whiplash this season. They call her out saying, “Please Meri share with us how you got to this place. The amount of whip lash fans feel from you & the other 2 OG wives is insane. What did your journey look like? How did you get here?”

  • Furthermore, many Sister Wives fans think she just leaves breadcrumbs to entice and not satisfy viewers. Someone else adds, “The show is very curated. We only see bits & pieces. I’m waiting for that tell-all book from Meri!”
  • In a Reddit thread one user points out the world around Meri has been very unsteady. “Meri was so desperate to be loved and accepted by Kody after the catfishing that she behaved a certain way when the cameras were rolling to protect Kody and Robyn in hopes of winning him back. Little did she know she was being lied to and manipulated by both of them. Now that she is free and moving on, she is slowly realizing the truth about who those two really are and what was really going on. It may take her some time to fully unravel it all but her honesty and vulnerability of where she is in her healing right now is carrying this whole season and I am here for it.”

Many Sister Wives Fans Understand It Is A Process For Meri Brown

Undoubtedly, Sister Wives star, Meri Brown is taking two steps forward and one backward at times. However, as Gregory Titleman’s saying goes, “Old habits die hard.” Many of her fans understand that dance is part of her growth process. If she “stays consistent” at this point, her default mode is to allow people to walk all over her. Seemingly, the back-and-forth stance is more of an ebb and flow while she deprograms, especially since Kody Brown is wishy-washy in his reactions.

  • While some Sister Wives fans completely understand Meri testing the waters, others think it is time for her to dive in head first. One Instagram user said, “Shout it out loud! You have earned it 🙏🏻.”
  • I love this side of Mary. Thank goodness for your friend. I know she has helped you feel strong and confident. You deserve all the blessings.”

What do you think? Is Meri Brown riding the fence? Do you think she is making healthy progress in her journey to find herself and her voice? Do you feel whiplash after watching Meri’s storyline?
