Sister Wives star Meri Brown will be the next wife to leave husband Kody Brown, according to a source.
After news broke that Christine Brown left Kody and their three wives after 27 years of marriage, an insider says Meri Brown is next.
As previously reported by Monsters & Critics, Kody announced and confirmed that Christine left him after speculation that she started a new life in Utah.
Shortly after his announcement, Christine also confirmed the split on her Instagram Feed.
Sister Wives fans weren’t exactly shocked to find out Christine left, and many reacted with happiness for Christine as she begins her new life.
Sister Wives stars Meri and Kody Brown have ‘zero relationship’
Now, a source has told Us Weekly that Meri will be following in Christine’s footsteps very soon.
Meri has become “has become very independent” these days, according to the insider.
According to the source, Meri and Kody only stay together for the sake of their show, Sister Wives.
“She and Kody have had zero relationship — it’s all fake,” the insider revealed. “They’re together for TV, essentially.”
This wouldn’t come as a shock to Sister Wives viewers who watched Kody and Meri’s marriage collapse last season, prompting Sister Wives fans to urge Meri to leave.
The source also said that Meri spends a lot of time with her and Kody’s daughter, Mariah, and the other 17 kids in the family.
“Meri spends a lot of time with her kids and goes wherever they go,” the source claimed.
Meri recently told her fans that she considers all 18 of Kody’s children her own, although only one (Mariah) is her biological child.
The 50-year-old TLC star often spends time with the youngest kids in the family, Solomon and Ariella, whose biological mother is Robyn Brown.
Meri Brown to publicly announce split from Kody, says source
The source also told Us Weekly that Meri is going to announce her split from Kody soon and that she’s already playing the field.
“Publicly, Meri will be the next one to split from Kody. She’s already been out with other men publicly,” the insider divulged.
Christine leaving Kody could have been the impetus Meri needed to do the same.
“Now that’s Christine’s gone, it might be something that’s able to happen without the contract ending,” the source added.
Meri and Kody legally wed in 1990 and the two lived as a monogamous couple for three years until Janelle Brown, Kody’s second wife, entered the family.
A year later, wife number three, Christine Brown, would join the family. Robyn Brown, wife number four, didn’t join the family until 16 years later, in 2010.
Robyn brought three children from a previous marriage to the family, so legally, Kody divorced Meri so that he could then marry Robyn. Until that point, Kody’s only legal wife was Meri — the rest were spiritual. Currently, Robyn is Kody’s only legal wife.
Sister Wives returns on Sunday, November 21 at 10/9c on TLC and Discovery+.
Meri isn’t going anywhere! She shovels the crap Kody takes all the time. She is as pitiful as him. They are both using this show for their own benefit and I don’t buy it. I would love to see Janelle leave next. The way Kody abuses her children is sick. Look what he did to Christines daughter about her surgery and never went. He doesn’t deserve any of those kids. He is a lair, bully, and a mentally abusive father. I think every one of those children have a story to tell about who Kody really is. It’s not nice and won’t end well. Janelle sons already buck heads with him and are not afraid either. Maybe the wives need to take some lessons from those young men. He is creepy and mentally unstable.
I hope janelle leaves too. And they do a show together . Surviving sister wives . I rather see the women and their children living their lives without Cody and . Cody and Robyn can go disappear into the cancelled tv show world
I would watch the sister wives who leave or have left Kody. I think it would be more interesting
.
I can’t stand Kody!! He has chosen who he wants to be with (Robin) and has abandoned the others. He is such a pompous self righteous puke!!!!!
Meri used to be very pretty, but living with Kody and his nonsense has really drained her. She needs to take better care of herself and leave that fool!
They all need to leave. This is NOT the way we were designed. Families cannot consist of so many wives with their own children and have everyone’s needs met by the one father/husband. It’s sad that these kids have been put through this by these overgrown children they call parents.
Could kody act anymore like a victim. Sooo egotistical.
There only doing this for the money they get from TLC.
I’m not going to tear down any one individual in this “family”, but if anyone has learned anything, plural marriage doesn’t look sustainable in long run. It goes against human nature, which is a powerful force. This family has been swimming up-stream for years and I just think it’s impossible for one man to satisfy all the needs of 4 women and how many ever kids they have now. It is destined to fail. I would love to see Meri and Janelle go their own way and Kody can stay with Robyn, who he seems to care for the most. None of their children are looking to be in plural marriages, because I think they see that it doesn’t really work. Of course, we only see what TLC wants us to see, so I can only speak to that. We’ll see what happens, I guess.
