  • TLC's Sister Wives cast members, Meri & Robyn, have a meeting to try and manipulate each other. Clearly neither of these women like or trust one another. While Robyn is attempting to reconstruct the narrative behind Kody & Christine's divorce, Meri is trying to recruit Robyn's help so she can reconcile with Kody. It's entertaining to watch because, as viewers, we have already seen the truth, so for them to bold face lie to us, each other, and themselves is a spectacle to behold.

      Meri is how she is with Robyn because that's how Janelle and Christine has to act with her while she was the favorite. In the book Robyn's first interaction with the entire family was at their house. Janelle was off picking up the older kids, a pregnant Christine was caring for all the younger kids, and Meri went to her room to give Robyn and Kody privacy. This is the dynamic Robyn saw and wanted. The favored wife having no responsibility but all the luxury as long as she did what she was told and everyone else was her henchmen to survive. She also saw the although Meri was the favorite her and Kody had problems and also that Kody was already overwhelmed. She saw that if she played her cards right she could be the last and favorite wife without having many kids and have 0 responsibility.
      Robyn is how she is because Meri was the blueprint who showed Robyn it was possible.
      Christine and Janelle are the only wives who entered their marriage with Kody having seen him in love with someone else so to say they aren't tough or built for it is stupid and insulting.
      This is the first time Meri has EVER had to honestly compete for Kody

      Meri has always been trying to recreate how she grew up in a polygamist family.. She was 1 of 27
      she only had 1 child hence she brought Janelle into her home, Janelle has 6 children by Kody then once again Meri brought in another wife Christine who had 6 children also by Kody. I always thought that Meri introduced Robyn by telling Kody to dance with her but I am now under the impression
      that when Robyn met them at her family members church she manipulated her way into the family. Her being a woman & mother you would think she would back off seeing that Christine was pregnant & who needed support at that time from her husband Kody.
      Not Kody off courting himself with another potential wife where is driving 4hrs to see her.
      I always felt that Meri did this through manic behaviour depression boredom and loneliness.

      @@leannemclean9024 I really dislike how people make Meri and Kody's behavior about Robyn. Yeah Robyn was a jerk and did terrible things to that family but people forget there was almost 20 years and some before that where Meri was manipulative and Kody was an incensitive jerk. Robyn only could do what she did because Meri and Kody made terrible selfish decisions. Before Robyn was even a thought Meri was a demeaning and selfish first wife who happily played the head wife role. I don't care if Robyn manipulated her 20 years later or she has a complex from having only 1 biological child. She made the decision to further make the lives of 15 people hell to serve herself. Kody decided to make the lives of 20 people hell to serve himself. Robyn is a factor but a small one in the overall unhappiness that Janelle, Christine, and all the kids felt.
      I really encourage people to read the book because they have been accidentally telling on themselves from the start. Meri has always been selfish and will throw anyone including her own daughter under the bus to get her life with Kody.
      In the beginning Kody and Meri prioritized themselves and never stopped. Meri in a mad dash to have an ally decided to live up Robyn's ass instead of trying to genuinely fix the 15 years of mistreatment she did to the other wives and upon seeing them hurt because of Kody and Robyn she STILL decided her place with them was more important than the neglect of 16 people.
      Meri doesn't give a shit about anyone but her place next to Kody.
      She invalidated Leon's own knowledge of what went down with the catfishing experience to save her own face with Kody.
      She gaslit her own child regard her infidelity so Kody wouldn't be mad at her.
      I honestly don't understand how anyone feels like she is a victim and not the same kind of narcissistic abuser as Kody.

      Good point. I read somewhere, that Meri abused the kids and Robyn called that out. Gwendlyn said that much as well.

    Here's how I see things. Meri was always jealous of Christine. Janelle and Kody had a more cerebral friendship, not a romance. Christine, on the other hand was bright and breezy, and churning out six kids, when Meri only had one viable pregnancy. Meri felt like she was losing her power position and introduced Robyn to Kody. By doing so, she deliberately hurt pregnant Christine. The new kid on the block, Robyn would be Meri's buddy (since Christine and Janelle didn't like Meri) but this backfired. Robyn became the power player. Meri, divorced Kody- not because she truly cared about Robyn or her kids. She did it to break free. By being legally bound to Kody, she wasn't free to troll the internet for a new man. Enter. "Sam", who she fantasized about. A more handsome, successful man who was smitten with Meri. She was ready to jump ship! Then, her fantasy came crumbling down. She was catfished- lied to- and had alienated Kody. Kody discovered her "affair" and lost all interest in her. His ego was wounded, and he had three other wives- so he didn't need Meri. Robyn, who was in an abusive marriage, was thrilled to have a man like Kody- who up until recently was fun, kind, and truly smitten with Robyn. Still- Robyn isn't happy. Her weight gain and frown lines indicate that she isn't happy. She now has to deal with Kody, a narcissist who has lost control of his flock. He is getting older, and feeling less potent. Narcissist hate the aging process and need a constant thrill. That's why Kody has four wives, 18 children, numerous homes, fancy two seater convertibles- and he gets to go on all the dates and trips, while the women have to wait their turn (or did). His life has collapased, because the wives don't need him financially. They too got big for their britches. Over the years- they went from a humble multifamily home- to mini-mansions. When before they had to band together- their incomes gave them sudden power. Power corrupts. I love Christine- and wish her well. She's the most likely to have it all. Janelle, I wonder sometimes if she is gay or asexual and if she's much bothered by Kody at all. I think she was more married to Christine. They functioned as a couple. Christine being the Mom and Janelle being the provider. It worked well, and that aspect of the show is nice. It goes to show- that two women can love and nurture each other. They aren't gay- they are just a power couple. The new show should be Janelle and Christine do Salt Lake!

      I agree with you about everything, with the exception of Meri being married to Kody, and being first wife. I think it tore her up to lose that title, and even worse, give it to Robyn. With only one child, and not being legally married, Meri lost a ton of clout. It was the beginning of the end for her. Now, after being catfished Kody just tossed her aside. Meri had to watch Kody fall in love with Robyn, and now miss Christine's presence. How she has been humbled!

      Meri is still so in love with her husband that i don’t think she would ever voluntarily divorce him. It was the only thing she had going for her except for her daughter. She was the only legal wife … she had the golden ring. No, i don’t think it was a voluntary divorce.

      This is a great way to approach it. It helps to keep all the relationships healthy. If you feel betrayed then you'll stop sharing parts of your life. When that happens, sooner or later and very slowly you will stop reaching out all together. This forces everyone involved to isolate themselves from needed resources of support.

    The veranda conversation was both infuriating and enlightening. Robyn openly coerces Meri to sacrifice her happiness for the 'greater good' aka Robyn's feeling of safety. I hope that Meri saw it too. Christine did tell Meri that she wanted out. Meri told her to 'look at the mountains' and forget about leaving or being happy. Robyn and Christine were never close so not good for a vulnerable conversation. Janelle was the right person for Christine to talk it out with. She was open to listening and being a sounding board. Meri is operating an a state of fear of change. Robyn in operating is a state of fear and will say or do anything to maintain her comfort zone.

I think it's so funny that in one breath Sobbin tells Meri to hold on and fight with me and in the next breath says I wouldn't blame Meri if she gave up and left the family. The reason Mykelti and Sobbin are close is because Cooter had Mykelti move in with Sobbin prior to them marrying to watch her kids so that Cooter and Sobbin could "court". Sobbin is a thousand percent toxic her oldest son was named after her ex husband but when she got with Cooter she legally changed his name to Dayton.

      I didn't like Robyn from the start. It was obvious from the beginning that she was a manipulator. For instance, when Christine was in labor, Robyn played smoochy-poochy with Kody. That was enough to tell me that she was a terrible person. This is a woman who had birthed three children herself. She knew what it was like to be in labor and need the support of a husband, but Robyn kept Kody away from Christine when Christine was at a very vulnerable point. I thought they weren't allowed to kiss until they were married. Instead, Robyn carried on with Kody like the town tart while trying to sell herself as the sweet, innocent girl next door.

    The way to avoid these toxic people is to not engage in polygamy. Christine certainly needs to give a bonus to her therapist or a great review to the book she read that prepared her for all these interactions with these people to get out as cleanly as possible.

    Robyn outmaneuvered them all. First Christine as the caregiver for the kids when the other was away and worked. Robyn didn’t let Christine take care of her kids and Robyn didn’t want to work or take care of her own kids so she want a nanny. Then Robyn took the legal marriage and after that she took away the financial responsibility from Janelle because she thought the man should do that. So the roles the other wives had for 16 years was took away from them

  • @DizzyME13

    When they talk about Christine not trying to make the marriage work, my mind flashes to Kody and Christine on the beach a few years ago trying to build a tower out of rocks for some sort of marriage counseling project. I’m pretty sure Kody made her cry. I believe it was during her birthday trip but I could be wrong. It might have been when Kody tricked Christine into driving to look at Flagstaff… ✌️😀

      Was this around the time the entire family took a trip and Christine was upset about Cootie's friend who Christine wanted an apology from, don't remember why, and Cootie kept belittling Christine and saying she owed him an apology? I don't recall a lot of details about the situation just how ugly Cootie was to her. I quit watching for some time afterward because I detest that moron. The next time I watched was when Christine and Cootie's daughter got married in the Scottish ceremony and Cootie kept acting like a fool in his kilt. Being of Scottish decent I found him a fool that owed a huge apology to anyone who ever wore a kilt.
