The TV personality has flourished since leaving Arizona and moving to Utah, where she runs a bed and breakfast. While Meri wasn’t always a fan favorite on <em><a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/tag/sister-wives/”>Sister Wives</a></em>, her recent transformation has endeared her to viewers. In the show’s 19th season, she’s getting real and honest about where she is in life. A recent clip for the upcoming episode shows that separating from her plural family has given Meri a lot of new insight.</p>

<p id=”par-2_70″>In a sneak peek for the upcoming episode of <em>Sister Wives</em>, Meri Brown discusses what her life looks like now that she’s left plural marriage behind. In the clip obtained by <a href=”https://parade.com/news/sister-wives-star-meri-brown-makes-bold-declaration-life-after-divorce-kody-exclusive-video” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Parade</a>, the small business owner makes it clear that she is laser-focused on appreciating the people in her life.

<p id=”par-3_94″>Meri tells her friends, “If they don’t want you at their table, make your own,” in the telling clip. It’s clear that Meri has spent a good amount of time since her divorce “making her own” table. The mother of one has an extensive network of friends. She has spent the last two years documenting her budding relationships, growing businesses, and extensive travels on Instagram. Meri has almost<a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/meri-brown-establishes-her-post-divorce-dynamic-with-kody-brown-you-dont-need-to-worry-about-me.html/”> no contact with her ex-husband or former sister wives</a>. She does appear to keep in contact with several Brown family kids, but not all of them.</p>

<p id=”par-4_60″>Seeing Meri Brown realize that she has options and value outside of the plural family she once belonged to has been inspiring for many Sister Wives fans. Still, it has been a long time in the making. For several seasons, viewers were frustrated with Meri for trying to remain in a family that didn’t want her around for many years.</p>

Meri Brown Calls Her Relationship With Kody Brown a Mixture of ‘High Hopes and Dashed Realities, Dreams Come True and Broken Hearts’ </a>
</p>
</div>
<p id=”par-5_87″>If we look at it objectively, Meri was being iced out by Kody Brown and her former sisters wives for more than five years before she finally called it quits. Her turbulent relationship with Janelle Brown was well-documented in early seasons of <em>Sister Wives</em>. <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/3-times-meri-browns-sister-wives-were-horrible-to-her.html/”>Christine Brown’s villainization of Meri </a>developed seemingly out of nowhere. TLC has showcased the dynamic several times in the show’s more recent seasons. Her non-existent relationship with Robyn Brown, despite her best efforts, has also been featured during the show’s most recent seasons.</p>
