Meri Brown

Meri Brown had plenty to ponder this past Sunday.

She had plenty to consider, reflect upon and be grateful for in celebration of Mother's Day.

Meri Brown has made it very clear for a long while now:

She's sick and tired of criticism over her personal life.

Meri Brown clearly knows what she is doing at this point.

The only questions fans should really have is this:

Meri Brown just came so very close to saying it, you guys.

The embattled Sister Wives star, who often shares cryptic memes and messages on social media, re-posted a quote on Instagram that wasn't a complete admission that she's left her cruel spiritual husband.

All of a sudden, Meri and Janelle Brown have a lot more to worry about than whether or not their spiritual husband actually cares about them.

The Southwest region of the country is "bracing for high winds, warm weather and low humidity," according to USA Today, "that could be a recipe for disaster in already drought-stricken areas."

Meri Brown knows she cannot turn to her spiritual husband any longer.

On numerous occasions, Kody Brown has made it clear that he doesn't speak to Meri everyday and that the so-called spouses are just friends at this point.

Meri Brown is relaxed, rested... and apparently turning to religion at the moment.

The veteran Sister Wives star took off on a solo road trip a few weeks ago, getting away from her troubled marriage in order to listen to audio books and "think about life," as Meri herself described it.

One year today.

That's how Meri Brown opened an emotional Instagram caption on Saturday, as the Sister Wives star paid a lovely tribute to her mother, Bonnie Ahlstrom, on the first anniversary of her passing.

It's a tradition to which many Sister Wives fans and social media users look forward every week: Christine Brown's white lasagna.

Just kidding. Although it is great.

Meri Brown clearly thinks her spiritual husband is a miserable person.

She also thinks he's responsible for the unhappiness of others.

For the most part, people have had nothing but praise for Christine Brown's new cooking show.

Seriously, that Sister Wives white lasagna recipe looks hella good, and some of the THG staff doesn't even eat gluten!

Meri Brown thinks she has a lot in common with Shonda Rhimes.

There's a sentence we're guessing you didn't expect to see written, huh?

* To take a road trip by herself, that is.

Earlier this week, Meri Brown got Sister Wives fans all excited and also all curious.

We've been here before with Meri Brown.

We've been here many times before with Meri Brown.

The question nearly every Sister Wives viewer on the planet has for Meri Brown can be summed up in one word:

WHY?

Meri Brown just celebrated Valentine's Day early.

In the saddest and most sorry way possible.

Meri Brown has made it clear, over and over and then over again:

She is not leaving Kody Brown.

An awful lot has happened during the current season of Sister Wives.

And pretty much all of it has been absolutely terrible.

From an emotional perspective, Meri Brown may be beaten down.

She may be battered.

Meri Brown doesn't have a loving husband.

Nor does she have anything remotely close to an active sex life.

It may have been accidental.

It may not have been her intention.

It's been clear for a very long time now that Kody Brown no longer loves Meri Brown.

How has this been made clear?

There was so much to go through during Part 1 of the Sister Wives One-on-One Special.

When Meri Brown revealed that she hadn't been with Kody in 10 years, viewers were astonished.

We try very hard here at The Hollywood Gossip to stay out of other people's sex lives.

It's just none of our business, you know?
