I just watched Meri's interview with US weekly. First I want to say that her skin and makeup looks really good! But I have to roll my eyes, when the interviewer asked if Meri ever had a desire to be in a monogamous relationship, and she said no.
Really? Really Meri? You mean you and your catfish that you were leaving Kody for talked about living plural marriage? Nope, I don't think so. So yeah you did want a monogamous relationship. I swear the wives are never really truthful when they do these interviews.

Say what now? Does anyone else find it odd that of all the things Tony could've said in a statement, he felt the need to mention that Robyn was there via Zoom? I'm sorry but I'm conditioned to think that Tony parroted what Kody (via Robyn) told him to say to People.
But she's a cute baby and I'm glad everything went okay.
Do you think it was shade at Kody and the other wives who were not there? Like shout out to Robyn who was the only one to care enough to be involved. Like you said it was a very strange comment to make.

So has Janelle posted in the last year how much she weighs now? I’m really not meaning to throw shade over her weight or body shame, I’m just curious if she has given results to prove the effectiveness of her business Strive with Janelle business?
when touting a health/weight loss site that you are the face of and charge people money, I’m curious as to what weight loss she has or what health benefits(lowering blood pressure, blood sugar?) she actually discusses on her journey?
Does she ever talk about specific results she experienced on her own weight loss business since she is the spokeswoman?

OMG! Kody ran faster than the roadrunner back to the car to get Meri a second coat after she suggested they cuddle together under the blanket.

In response to Kody: then don't broadcast your marital FAILINGS in a TV show that you expect to be paid for.
Get off my TV screen with your crap.
In response to Janelle, if she is so offended by the "Knives out" mentality of some people then maybe she should block Kody as well.

I'm starting to realize this season that Janelle is a very passive parent who can't control her kids. And Kody probably stops by once a week. So the older boys are running the show. Christine once admitted on camera that Aspyn was basically the second parent in her house. I don't think Kody really does much parenting at all. Except with Robyn, who can't seem to get any of her kids to grow up and needs constant assistance.
Logan and Christine raised the older children, and I think Meri was the one who would discipline them. With Meri no longer involved with the children, I really don't think any of them get any real discipline.

Oh wow guys, many pages of notes on last night’s episode Let’s start with Kody/Meri shall we? Cause I have a lot to say about Kody/christine, and Kody/Janelle and her children. Counselor hat on.
What I saw and heard last night, is not uncommon in mixed agenda couples. One spouse is clear that they have no desire or interest in the relationship, while the other still has hope that their relationship can be renewed. This two differing agendas played out in full display during their anniversary outing.
Take a look at Kody’s language: “I’m trying to get Meri to realize some things that might help her improve her life.” Or “I’m trying to help Meri determine if she has a spark or if she is just lonely for anything.”
So under this guise, Meri is the only one that needs development, and clearly doesn't know her own mind or feelings. In reality, Kody is trying to implement his own will/agenda onto Meri. As Kody stated, he can’t tell her where they are at, they need to agree on it, so Kody can maintain his image.
So to try and make her agree to an exit strategy, he uses emotional starvation as his main tactic.
Even after years of emotional starvation, she continues to voice hope. So his tactics escalate. He tells her he doesn’t love her. He has no real interest in a relationship with her. He talks about her cruelty. All forms of reaching out by her, are slapped away.
His comment that she needed to “be lovable,” implies that she is in fact unlovable in his eyes, and not worthy of love.
And yet, even with such escalation on his part, we cut to Meri during her interview, which was filmed after this outing, to her saying she’s not giving up, and she’s not a quitter.
As for Meri, I can say with all truthfulness that as a counselor, I see time and time again, a person fight to stay in a marriage that is unhealthy for them. Is she in a toxic relationship? Yes. Is she clinging to a hopeful fantasy of a reconciliation one day, that is leaving her stuck in a place without love? Yes. These are all questions that as a counselor I would discuss with her. But Meri is an adult, and Kody has made his stance and feelings of disdain very clear, and so she continues her agenda with her eyes wide open. If she is not in a place of acceptance of moving forward, that is a decision she is allowed to make. I have had spouses separated for 15 years, with one still holding out hope, while the other has moved on with a new family.
The last note I wrote for Meri on my page was simply this. If you have to repeatedly live in the past to tolerate the present, then you will never have a future.
Yes!!! Emotional starvation. I love that term. That is exactly what Kody does to punish his wives.
I have a question. With the death of Meri's mother, do you think a tragedy like that could motivate her to possibly leave Flagstaff, and move to Utah to the Bed and Breakfast, and to be closer to Mariah?

Im confused! Kody went on and on about the COVID protocols he’s taking, changing his clothes, showering, and sanitizing his hands before he will touch his children when he goes from one house to the other. But he just walked into Janelle’s house doing none of that. So is he only doing that at Robyn’s house?

Kody: "I want wives that get along with each other, and like each other, and who don't sit there and say snotty little *bleep* things to each other that breaks the other's heart."
There has to be so much going on in this family that they are not airing. So if you guys had to guess which wives are saying snotty things to the other and about what?
I think some of it was Meri/Maddie blowup, which I think pissed off Janelle and Kody. I mean had Meri even met Maddie's daughter yet?
I think Meri is talking crap about the other three.
I think Christine has said things to Robyn, and Robyn has gone crying to Kody, that what is being said, "breaks her heart."
I really think Robyn claims to the peacemaker, but then goes back and tells Kody that she is feeling bullied by Meri, or tells Kody something Christine said about why she doesn't want to live in one house, and she just stirs the pot, by playing victim, and gets Kody riled up so that he is angry at the other wives.

Kody: I have no desire to be you.
Meri: So you’re saying there’s a chance.
Kody: You’re cruel and I don’t love you.
Meri: I want to kiss you so bad.

She's eating it up, and gleefully gloating to herself, that she has Kootie around, probably 24/7, when the cameras aren't around. Stealth bitch doesn't even begin to describe her evil ways. She doesn't give a rat's ass about being 'fair.'
What kills me is she’s saying it’s not fair to her. She always twist situations so that she is a victim. She bought a million dollar home, buts its unfair cause she couldn’t find a rental so that all of her kids could have their own bedroom.
it isn’t fair to her, that Kody stayed with her and her children during quarantine, while his other children felt abandoned by him.

how is it This woman always paints herself as the victim!!!!
Janelle has come out and said the longest time she went without seeing Kody was 5 weeks during quarantine. In Christine’s newest interview she stayed away from Kody for 6 weeks! But Robyn is the one here painting herself as the one suffering and the victim!!!
Robyn: “I have little kids, so I kind of just had to run my will with Kody with whatever he decided and just do what he was doing, because that’s the only way my little kids would be able to see him.”
Really Robyn. Sure Kody made all the decisions. We all heard Kody ask you on the last episode if he had to still social distance from Meri!
if according to the interview, you were so bothered and couldn’t sleep because of Not being able to see the family why didn’t you reach out and call your sister wives? Allow Truly to play with your kids?

so according to this article on Bonnie’s funeral:
1. Kody couldn’t read the room and was talkative and happy.
2. Kody and Meri barely interacted.
3. Christine and Robyn did not go.
4. Mariah and Audrey were both there and got their hair cut very short.

I was rewatching the Kody/Meri scene from the last episode, and picked up on a few things.
Did you all catch when Kody knelt down next to Meri, to facetime with Robyn, the pissed look on Robyn's face?
And then at one point, Kody looks at the phone and asks Robyn: "I still don't have to socially distance myself from Meri, do I?"
If there is any question on who is running this nonsensical Brown family social distancing, Kody having to ask Robyn that, is all the proof you need, that Robyn is running the show.
Also on the way over, while Kody was driving, he mentioned that he got a message from Meri that she needed to talk to him, so he was heading over there. So was Kody's plan to continue to stay away and not even visit Mariah, but when he got Meri's message, he decided just to go over there? So if Meri hadn't text, how long would father of the year there, gone without even calling or coming over to check on his own daughter?

So Robyn is praying for Kody and Meri to work it out? Give me a break!!!!
You think a woman who divorced her first husband, and had her children adopted by another man, would understand that some relationships are no longer healthy, and have run their course.

On last nights episode when they all spoke about if God Forbid one of the wives got COVID and ended up deathly ill it got me thinking, Who would each wive’s children live with?
I don’t think Kody would have any of them live with Meri.
I believe if Janelle passed Savanna would live with Christine.
If Christine passed, I’m torn if her children would live with Janelle or Robyn.
if Robyn passed I think her children would live with Christine.
what do you all think?

Just saw Janelle got back to Arizona last night.
So can we assume then that Janelle got vaccinated if she is visiting Maddie and her grandchildren?

Hmmmm.
1. So they mentioned that Kody had to work out at home, cause the gym is closed. So Mr. I get no alone time, usually goes to the gym by himself. Oh well, I guess we all can't Strive with Janelle.
2. Robyn mentions the other wives talking about retiring and spending time with their grandchildren. Retire from what? Is Janelle going to retire from sitting around watching tv all day?
3. So when are Robyn's oldest children going to grow up some and accept some responsibility for their younger siblings? Kody saying if Robyn got sick, he would have to be there to help care for her and the youngest children, uh, are you telling me a 20 year old, and 18 year old, and 16 year old can't help? I guess children that age can only help if they are either Christine or Janelle's.
4. So Mariah and Audrey only quarantined for one week with Meri, than all three went to the BnB, and Meri drove back to Flagstaff with her 75 year old mother? Not sure of the logic there.
5. How telling was it, that Kody asked Robyn over the phone if it was okay that he not socially distance from Meri, and then you had Robyn questioning Bonnie's exposure and so forth. Robyn is really running this entire Covid procedure for the entire family.
6. Speaking of Meri's mother, does anyone else think that Meri, Janelle, and Christine not tweeting last night, may be because they are either preparing or attending Bonnie's funeral? I wouldn't be surprised if Kody and Robyn, who both tweeted last night, did not attend her funeral, due to the safety of Robyn's children.

Things last night that made me go hmmmm.....
If Robyn and Christine's families are quarantining so Kody can go between those two families safely, then why can't the children from those two families hang out with each other, or go to the other's birthday parties?
Very telling that Gable asked Janelle if Kody was not going to out to the store then, and asked nothing about if Dad was still going to go to work. Makes me think then, that Kody either doesn't really work, or works part time from home, prior to the pandemic.
Also when Janelle explained to her kids that Kody would be spending his time between Christine and Robyn's homes, the kids didn't bat an eyelash over Meri not being included. Sounds like the entire family knows that she really is no longer part of the Brown family.
Kody trying really hard to make it sound like he knows what's going on with his children, by talking about Savannha playing the bass guitar with her time, and then we cut to Janelle saying she's not practicing it, and is playing video games instead.

Robyn going on about Sol and RSV and how he was almost hospitalized, umm...wasn't Truely actually hospitalized for weeks, and almost died? Strange how we emphasize Sol's medical history, and she completely ignored Truely.
Plus, no shade, but honestly Janelle is high risk, due to her obesity. And with obesity, she is 65 percent more likely to suffer from high cholesterol and blood pressure, which are also high risk conditions.
Boy did Kody get snippy when the four wives actually were talking about what the schedule could look like. Kody knows that with quarantining he would actually have to stay at whatever house he is at, and not go anywhere, and be forced to actually spend time with that wife and children.
When his feet are held to the fire, this man, does not want to have to spend time equally with the wives. His schedule is a "sensitive" topic to him. Why? If you were spending time equally, as you should have been doing this entire time, then it shouldn't be a problem.
I mean Christine was proposing you spend a few days at each household. Isn't that what he is claiming is happening now anyway? Obviously not if just the mention of it, makes him go off the deep end.

I was curious what the price was for Wadley Farms with the castle venue. The castle by itself is 4,000 just for rental. The outside barn and garden is another 2,500. Plus cost of catering and decorations.
im curious as to if every child gets the same budget for their wedding. It only seems fair to tell each child you get this much. If you want more you pay the extra and if it’s less you keep the difference. That’s what my family did.
plus I wonder if Audrey’s parents are paying for half since their are two brides.

OMG was Robyn really crying for herself when she was talking about the ideal pure love she feels for her sister wives? She really thinks a lot of herself doesn’t she?
@Onceafan your assessment of Robyn wanting to maintain her image is spot on. So she waits 4 months after the blow up at coyote pass, and more importantly waits for the cameras, so she can be filmed as the peacemaker cause she knows she let her mask slipped the last time, and the audience got to see her true colors. Now she’s trying to play miss perfect again for the audience.
im waiting to hear your response on this episode and on Kody.

Found it interesting that Kody asked Robyn if she had child care lined up for Thursday night when they were planning the road trip. Aren’t Robyn’s oldest 21 and 18? They can’t watch their younger siblings? If not why can’t Christine’s or Janelle’s kids watch them? Hell they had 15 year old Logan practically running the entire household prior to the first season.
also why won’t they just come out and tell the audience why the sister wives don’t get along? Kody says we are five people that really don’t want to be around each other. Why? They always reference the tired old excuse of sharing a kitchen. Come on so much has happened since then. What’s the real reason now? Tell us exactly why and who Christine is so jealous of? Talk about Meri Maddie conflict? These clowns never are honest about what the real problems are. What are the sister wives complaining to Kody about?

S15.E09: A Family Stuck
in Sister Wives
Janelle is a lot more angry on her couch interviews which I assume was in the late summer, judging by her lip.
“Some voices in the family want us to stay separated.” Ummm, we all know that is Robyn and Kody just say their names.
also I think she is more angry now cause it’s Kody choosing to stay away, and not her asking him to.
