Christine was the first to leave the family in 2021, followed by Janelle a year later.
Meri was the last to break free, and she was with Kody the longest.
Kody and Meri Brown married in 1990 and welcomed one child during their time together.
However, the exes had been struggling long before that.
Their issues began when Janelle joined their plural family in 1993, making Meri jealous.
After a catfishing scandal, it was all downhill for the pair.
From resentment to public bashing, Kody and Meri have had their fair share of bickering over the years.
According to the patriarch, that was the point where all of their problems started.
But Meri has a different perspective on the situation.
To do that, he had to divorce Meri, his only legal wife at the time.
Robyn and Kody married in 2014, making Meri one of Kody’s spiritual wives.
However, one of her online friends, Sam Cooper, was more than a pen pal.
The woman leaked some of their correspondence, in which Meri was venting about her husband.
“That was one of the reasons why I didn’t want him around.
I was just angry …
I just pushed Kody away,” she added.
Despite defending Meri in public after she was scammed, Kody distanced himself from her.
Actually, according to Meri, Kody was working on their relationship,Peoplereported.
Later in the episode, Meri talked to her sister wife, Robyn Brown, about the situation.
“I am still here because I’m still trying.
Six years later, I’m still here.
Ten years, 15, 20 years later, I’m still here.
It’s what I want,” Meri stated, but got no response from Robyn.
The patriarch claimedChristine saved the Brown familywhen she married him, which rubbed Meri the wrong way.
“When Janelle came into the family, I was jealous.
As Meri shared her feelings in a solo interview, Kody never publicly acknowledged her stance.
Meri, however, chimed in again.
“You don’t care enough to fight for [Christine].
Obviously, you didn’t care enough to fight for me.
I don’t understand that,” she said, unsuccessfully trying to get Kody’s attention.
“Maybe I’ll just go live in Parowan,” she said, leaving the property soon afterward.
“This is the game [Meri] plays.
She’s always played it.
