Sister Wives star, Meri Brown has hit a spot in her life where nothing seems certain anymore. All the beliefs she has clung to for decades are crumbling. After Kody Brown’s emotional escapade over their marriage, she wasn’t sure who to trust. In many ways, her rose-colored glasses were sliding off and she was beginning to wonder what was real. When she confronted Kody and Robyn Brown was she baiting them to see their reaction?
Meri Brown Is Second-Guessing Life
Although after Sister Wives star, Kody Brown dove deep into his feelings when saying goodbye to Meri Brown, he seems to have ulterior motives. However, in the aftermath, Jenn Sullivan was left to clean up the mess Kody created by soothing Meri as she second-guessed her decisions. But Jenn was the voice of reason Meri needed to remind her that Kody had done plenty of “stupid” things in the past. Likewise, Meri couldn’t just erase all those memories and chase after a spur-of-the-moment feeling.
Meri Brown Baited Robyn And Kody?
On Reddit, several Sister Wives fans discuss that Meri Brown may have been baiting Kody and Robyn Brown during the Coyote Pass property discussion. First, a user says, “Meri did EXACTLY what she was supposed to be talking about Janelle & Coyote Pass to K&R.” Then, they add, “There is NO WAY Janelle went to Meri, a woman whose husband she planned to marry in secret and who she’s spent the better part of a decade calling abusive because of kitchen cleanliness preference, and talked about MAJOR financial dealings, and expected Meri to not communicate it to Kody and Robin.”
Furthermore, the Redditor adds, “Meri is the only one of the group of five who seems to know how to hustle. Janelle probably figured ah, Meri will hire the lawyers and get this sorted out. As per usual, I can go back to doing nothing. Also, you can just see the look on Kody and Robyn’s faces, and tell they are trying to screw over Meri and Janelle. Meri obviously brought up what Janelle said to gauge their reaction because afterward she very calmly said ‘I’d like an appraisal (instead of blindly believing in you about what plot is worth what). Also….fu*k Kody for diminishing Meri’s solo trip. He probably doesn’t even know what Stonehenge is.”
- One fan says, “Hmm yes it seemed she baited them.. she’s testing the waters… Is Meri finally wise to them?”
- Another adds, “I disagree with your assessment of Janelle‘s motivations, but I do agree that she 100% wanted Meri to tell Kody that they were speaking about the property.”
Fans Add To The Conversation
After the initial poster gave their thoughts about Janelle using Meri Brown to get Kody and Robyn Brown to move forward with the negotiations, other fans added their thoughts.
- “Meri is dropping hints that she and Janelle know what’s up. She’s gauging their response. She said nothing bad about Janelle. She’s also telling them that she’s going to be more involved about how this land gets divided and she’s going to make legal moves with the appraiser so they don’t pull the wool over her eyes. She’s laying the groundwork and she’s enjoying fu*king with them because Kody isn’t dangling a relationship in front of her anymore. She enjoys making them uncomfortable and I’m here for it!!”
- “She also did a great job getting them to repeatedly state, on camera, that OF COURSE the value of the land will be split evenly. Meri knew what she was doing bringing up Jenelle, and I agree that Jenelle probably knew what she was doing by getting Meri involved.”
Meri Brown Is Getting Her Feet Under Her
Although some people believe that Kody Brown was dragging Meri Brown along to make the negotiations peaceful, others love how awake Meri seems to be to his manipulations. Even though she is still a little wobbly becoming more assertive with Kody and Robyn, she isn’t blindly trusting anymore. She knows she has to take care of herself now.
- For instance, she isn’t letting Kody hijack the deal with simple challenges. One user says, “The way he turned red and was like, ‘Well…then we’d have to get it appraised.’ Meri, ‘I’m pretty sure they have appraisers in Flagstaff.’ Like STFU Kody. Come up with a real excuse.”
- Another fan adds, “That cracked me up so much. Kody acting like it’s this big hurdle and Meri calmly being like Dude, it’s not that big of a deal, there are land appraisers in Flagstaff.”
Divide And Conquer
Someone else points out that Kody Brown has always banked on leveraging Meri Brown and Janelle against one another.
- “That was his tactic all the years they were married. He kept them at odds so he could do exactly as he pleased. He always had Jenelle bamboozled but now she’s seeing his deception. Meri isn’t falling for it. I think he believes that he is always green smartest person in the room. They should absolutely divide that land equally among the 4 of them. Robyn shouldn’t even have a separate stake until or unless she gives back every dime Janelle and/or Meri sank into her home. She’s double dipping. Where goes Kody’s name, so goes hers. They should be considered a unit.”
- However, someone else thinks Meri is just hitting her new stride. “Meri is quite formidable. I think Kody and Robyn have met their match..”
Kody And Robyn Brown Are Uneasy About Meri And Janelle Brown Joining Forces
Fans noticed how edgy both Kody and Robyn Brown were during Meri Brown’s discussions about dividing the land.
- “Kody looked nervous during that sit-down, especially when Mari talked about dividing the land equally. He is planning on getting the lion’s share.“
- “At one point Robyn has a pen in her hand and when he says he spoke to Janelle you see her reach out to touch his arm but it’s like in a tapping motion.”
- “She did it on the two occasions Janelle’s name was mentioned. Kody and Robyn panicked when they realized Meri and Janelle had been in contact.”
- ‘When Meri brought it up, Robin did a very quick glance at Kody that seemed telling.”
