I have long wondered why Meri didn't leave Kody? But she can't leave Kody since he left/abandoned her years ago. They do not have a relationship that one associates with a married couple. Not at all! They have an adult daughter together, have the same last name and have mutual acquaintances like Janelle and Robyn. You can't even call them good neighbors since Kody hasn't visited Meri's home in so long, in many years? There is nothing for Meri to leave. She has lived as a single woman for years and seems to enjoy it. I think she is happy with her life and continues to sit quietly during their few meetings when something needs to be discussed. She looks like she's thinking about what to have for dinner while Kody tries to find someone to blame for his own shortcomings and Robyn tries to squeeze out some crocodile tears. No, if Meri is smart, she stays in the city where she lives and watches from a comfortable distance how everything develops...
