Now that Janelle, Christine, and Meri Brown have all parted ways with Kody, they’re exploring new avenues of life.
Christine and Janelle eagerly dove into other projects, but Meri seems to have a harder time letting go.
Even so, Sister Wives fans sympathize with Meri. For years, they’ve watched Kody treat her terribly.
Now that their marriage is over, she wants a release so she can finally start her life again.
But is the release truly necessary? Or does Meri just want to embarrass Kody? See what fans have to say.
Did Meri Brown Get One Last Jab At Kody?
During Season 19, Meri Brown described how embarrassing it was for Kody to say he never loved her after decades of marriage.
Pursuing a release through their church will officially end their spiritual union for good.
But since the Brown family members aren’t very active in the church any longer, is it necessary?
“Regarding Meri getting ‘released,’” one Sister Wives viewer wrote on Reddit. “I feel like Meri is going to the church to get ‘released’ from Kody to stick it to him via the church.
He thought he was ‘royalty’ being married to Christine and the show etc…. My opinion is Meri is just doing this to further embarrass him at this point.”
Sister Wives Fans Think She’s Justified In Her Actions
Overall, other Sister Wives viewers seemed to have a mixed bag of opinions. But most agreed that if Meri was doing it all on purpose, they certainly didn’t blame her.
Other Reddit comments included:
- “I don’t think so, because she knows Kody has already left the church. I think Meri wants a release for Meri’s sake. Her family (at least some in it) are part of the AUB. She may want a clean slate, in case she falls in love with someone else.”
- “If so, good for her. I think she’s doing it because she believes in the faith and doesn’t want to be bound for eternity to an abusive ***hole who mistreats her. I can see Meri dating again (unlike Janelle) and so wanting some sort of official divorce makes sense to me.”
- “Yes and we support her for it. He’s done it to her and Christine for years.”
- “I think it’s more for closure than anything….but I think she does retain some of her beliefs and doesn’t want to leave any stone unturned, so to speak.”
What do you think about the situation? Is Meri Brown trying to humiliate her ex on purpose? Does he deserve it? Leave your own thoughts in the comments.
