On Sister Wives Season 5 Episode 18, entitled "First a Verdict, Then a Lawyer," Meri Brown dropped the most epic bombshell on the rest of the family:
She’s filing for divorce from Kody Brown. Holy mother of …
Of course, there was a major twist, and Sister Wives Season 5 Episode 18 made it abundantly clear soon enough that their divorce is a legal one only.
She’s not leaving the family. Far from it. FAR from it.
He can only be legally married to one woman, of course, so Kody Brown divorced one wife to marry another – Robyn – so that he could help her children.
Specifically, provide them with health insurance.
It makes sense, and this story got a fair amount of attention in celebrity gossip circles for obvious reasons, but what we didn’t see was its impact on Meri.
Despite the fact that she thought it up on her own, and was a part of the process throughout, and willingly at that, Meri has to be reeling a bit from this.
She’s already been struggling a bit with her place in the family. She was the only woman technically married to Kody and now she has signed that away.
How will she respond going forward?
We can’t say for sure now. No one can unless you’re a member of the Brown household. All we can do is watch Sister Wives online to see it all play out.
