In an emotionally touching post Meri recently shared, “Miss these two amazing humans. Miss their wisdom, their laughter, their love… Nothing feels as lonely some days as when you don’t have mom and dad with you.”

Major Changes in Meri’s Life

In recent years, there was a significant shift for Meri as she announced a decisive end to her marriage with Kody Brown, which began in the 1990s. The Sister Wives couple’s issues were aired on the TLC series, indicating that they had not been intimate for over a decade.

Meri’s departure from the family is evident in Sister Wives’ 18th season trailer, where she notifies Kody and his remaining wife, Robyn Brown, of her decision to exit the family arrangement.

Upon putting an end to her long-standing marriage with Sister Wives husband Kody, Meri decided to chart a new path. She left their home in Flagstaff, Arizona, and moved to Parowan, Utah. A significant shift.

A retailer for LuLaRoe, Meri has taken to embrace her single life with style. Following more than three decades of marital ups and downs, Kody and Meri decided to part ways in January.

The Sister Wives couple posted a joint statement on their Instagram accounts which read: “After more than a decade of working on our relationship in our own unique ways, we have made the decision to permanently terminate our marriage relationship.”

Meri also emphasized in her posts that despite their split, she harbors “no animosity toward Kody.”

Her Reaction Reactions on Sister Wives Tell-All

Meri displayed frustration when Kody publicly stated he no longer considered himself married to her during part one of the December 2022 Sister Wives: One on One tell-all, an event happening just a month before their formal separation.

In reflecting on this moment, Meri said, “It just doesn’t make sense to me that he would be so frustrated with Christine (Brown), and then he says, ‘No, I don’t consider myself married to Meri.’”
