'Sister Wives' Star Meri Brown Claims She's Thriving After Defending Her Crumbling Marriage With Kody
As Meri Brown's marriage with her husband, Kody, continues to show its cracks in Season 17 of Sister Wives, the mother-of-one took to Instagram to declare she's still loving life.
"Just over here Vibin' & Thrivin' 😁" she captioned a selfie. Meri was all smiles in a comfy, bright yellow hoodie in the snapshot. "That is all.#LivingMyWhy BecauseICan #LoveWhatIDo #LoveWhoIAm."
The television personality regularly shares inspiring and empowering messages on self-love and chasing dreams with her fans, but as her relationship woes drag on in the hit TLC show, many of her followers are only focused on one topic — why she is choosing to stay in an unhappy spiritual marriage.

"Until you leave Kody, you will never be thriving," one user replied in the comments section, with another adding, "Meri after watching g [sic] what Kody has said about you and how he feels about you. Why do you stay? You deserve happiness and someone that actually loves you and will treat you like the queen you are."

"These people come at me and they're just like, 'why can't you be strong like Christine, why don't you leave Kody?'" she explained in a confessional. "It frustrates me because you know what? Christine has her own value regardless of Kody. I have my own value regardless of Kody."
"When I married Kody, it wasn't just because I loved him," she added later in the episode. "I felt like that I had a confirmation from God that I was supposed to be married to Kody — and I still feel like that."
