Meri Brownhas always been very different from her otherSister Wives,JanelleandChristine Brown, which is perhaps why they never got along well. Meri married her former husband, Kody Brown, in 1990, and a year later, they decided to pursue polygamy. Eventually, Janelle and Christine joined the Brown family.
Over the years,Meri acted as a matriarch, not onlyraising her child with Kody but also helping raise his other children with Janelle and Christine. In 2010, Meri allowed Kody to bring another wife, Robyn Brown, into their home, further expanding their family.
Meri had a friendly relationship with Kody until 2010, when Robyn entered their lives. Robyn, with her demure and reserved personality, became Kody’s favorite wife, causing him to grow apart from Meri and show favoritism towards Robyn. Eventually,Kody divorced Meri to legally marry Robyn, as he wanted to adopt her three childrenfrom a previous relationship.
Witnessing Kody’s preference for Robyn, Christine and Janelle ended their spiritual union with Kody. Their actions inspired Meri to follow suit in early 2023, as she left Kody and moved on with her life.
