Meri Brown SLAMMED by Sister Wives Fans: Stop Being Selfish and Indecisive!

Normally, Sister Wives viewers are filled with nothing but sympathy for Meri Brown. She has the worst luck.

But as Kody Brown was clearly getting sick of Meri, a lot of fans felt the same. Is she becoming a villain in the family drama?

Meri has made it known in the past that she likes living on land that is lined with trees.

Kody, for once thinking of someone other than himself, offered Meri the parcel of land that’s already treed.

Meri shocked Kody, her fellow sister wives, and viewers by suddenly announcing that trees at her last home prevented her from getting ample sunlight.

It wasn’t just that she changed her tune that had people frustrated.

See, she voiced her complaints about this parcel, but didn’t just announce that she wants a different one.

Instead, Meri seemed to be of two minds about it.

Since she neither accepts nor declines the parcel outright, Kody blows up — which, even with his understandable frustration, is very toxic.

Even Robyn seemingly admits that her defense of Meri wasn’t entirely justified. And fans were livid.

“Meri is a spoiled punk,” writes one commenter. “Always gets her way … get a grip!”

The comment continues: “Kody needs to put his foot down with her and stand firm.”

“After all is said and done,” another opines, “Merry needs just to say where she wants her house to be.”

That same fan comments that they are “done with it dragging out too much.”

“I’m generally Team Meri,” another admits, “becuase I generally feel like he treats her like a Step Wife.”

“However,” the fan adds, “this past episode she was a bit ridiculous.”

Someone who couldn’t spell either name correctly wrote: “Cody [sic] is so right about Mary [sic] … always the victim.”

“A side of Meri not previously shown,” another observes. “Self centered and unapologetic.”

Janelle goes on to explain that Meri has always been territorial, sometimes to a point that her family felt was absurd.

Some fans still think that Meri should get first dibs, even if she is being indecisive to the point of unfairness.

That way, it’s still in order of first wife, second wife, third wife, and fourth wife — Robyn.

But others think that Meri had her chance to choose and blew it. If she can’t make a choice, let the other thee decide for her.

Now, I’m no big city psychologist, but I have to agree with a growing number of fans who think that Meri’s feelings have nothing to do with trees.

(Or with pond access, for that matter)

Building a new house on a new plot of land is a huge decision.

Even if you are theoretically in favor of it, sometimes people find ways of making excuses to put off an inevitable, important choice.

Meri isn’t the only one who is anxious.

Janelle, for example, is concerned that if Meri takes a different plot, she may block access to the pond.

(It’s a giant mud puddle right now but it could be made nicer)

And Robyn is basically expecting table scraps regardless. This is a weird and complicated situation.

Meri Brown Blasts Kody on Twitter: You Don’t Speak for Me!!!

Sister Wives fans have a lot of opinions, but you’d be hard pressed to find one who doesn’t agree that Kody Brown sucks.

It’s not just fans who think that. Meri has had it up to here with Kody speaking for her, and she has taken to Twitter to put him on blast.

“I do have to say, I can’t speak for all of us,” Meri Brown’s tweet delicately begins.

“But when Kody says ‘all’ of us can’t handle seeing him with another woman,” she writes, “he is so wrong.”

Meri notes that he is incorrect “and shouldn’t be speaking for me.”

She follows those words with the shrug emoji.

Apparently, Meri’s tweet caused enough of a stir for Kody to reply with a quote-tweet.

“Okay, sorry that I ‘generalized’ again,” he begins, though we’re unsure why he included passive aggressive quotation marks around “generalized.”

“It is true that I sometimes accuse them of ‘all’ doing something,” Kody admits.

His tweet concludes by saying that his accusations tend to involve something “that usually is one wife only.”

Jealousy is something that can rear its ugly head even in the most loving and committed plural marriages.

Just as some people could never be happy in a monogamous relationship, others feel stabs of emotional pain even though they wish that they didn’t.

Some would say that this is the result of a conflict between who they are as people and their religious belief in polygamy.

Others would say that Kody is a toxic husband who simply doesn’t treat his wives equally, fairly, or give them enough emotional support.

Christine has been fairly vocal about her opposition to Kody’s dream of a huge house.

She has lived that way before — all of the sister wives cohabitated with Kody before Robyn entered the picture.

Christine is of the opinion that she is a better mother and also a better wife when she and her sister wives live in separate houses.

It’s not that she doesn’t love them, it’s just that she doesn’t want others walking into the bedroom when she and Kody are together. That’s fair.

In contrast, Janelle is all for Kody’s dream of building a polygamy palace for the entire Brown family.

Some Sister Wives fans have speculated that Janelle simply suffers from low self-esteem and will blindly follow anything that Kody suggests.

But Janelle’s stated reason is that she feels that the Brown family is not as close as they once were. She misses that.

Janelle thinks that everyone living under one roof will help the family become more closely knit.

Meri has her own reasons to be reluctant to share close quarters with Kody day in and day out.

At the moment, despite being his first wife, she has a strained relationship with Kody.

“It’s different than I want it to be at this point,” Meri has explained. “It’s easier for me to avoid.”

“I just think it would make it difficult to be in one home for me right now — just because of that,” she reasoned. Poor Meri.

Sister Wives Secrets Spilled: What Did Kody Brown Reveal?

Kody Brown has been a reality TV star for several years.

And yet, outside of what we see from the TLC personality each week on Sister Wives, we actually don’t know a ton about this guy, do we?

Brown is at the center of a controversial plural marriage and doesn’t seem like the most beloved person on the small screen or anything…

… but outside of those simple facts, what can really be said about Kody?

Perhaps a little bit more now, at least, following a surprising and revealing interview Brown recently conducted with Kate Casey on her podcast “Reality Life.”

What did Brown reveal about himself, the Sister Wives women and the show in general?

Scroll down to find out!

1. How Did TLC Discover the Browns?

“To be honest with you, I think we found them,” Kody said, going on to explain that in 2007, Christine was involved in a polygamist coalition working to educate the public and dispel rumors surrounding polygamy.

2. Okay, and From There?

Kody said the program’s producers had a dinner party with “very liberal individuals” and pals in Salt Lake City, Utah, all of whom were quite critical of Mormons and Fundamentalist Mormons, which Kody said upset the producer and inspired him to do a documentary on the subject.

3. This Producer Then Reached Out to Kody and…

We felt like we were really free people and that we had really sort of a normal family, even though the dynamic was different,” Kody said on his family’s reason for wanting to share their story. “Because we see other Christians or other people who are religious, we can relate to them. They’re just like us, we just have this one family dynamic that’s different and that’s the polygamy dynamic and we will never get a fair shake until somebody is looking into our home constantly.”

4. But How Did Sister Wives Become a Full-Fledged TV Show?

“He wanted to produce a 90-minute documentary, festival-style, take it to some kind of film festival and present it and get people to open their minds,” Kody said. “I said, ‘There is no way we are doing a one-off, no matter what. If we can’t have a series so the people see this is normal, so that they can judge us from seeing something that was daily, then I’m not going to do it.’ So then he agreed that he would do what he could to promote an entire series.”

5. Might He Have More Kids?

Kody has 18 overall, but he and Christine have at least discussed the possibility of adding more. As sort of insane as that sounds.

6. Where Will Kody’s Sperm Stop?!?

“I never thought that there would be a limit. I never looked at it like when am I going to stop, I never thought that over,” Kody said on the podcast. It’s worth noting that his Sister Wives are almost all younger than he is.
