Hey, so, remember Meri Brown"s catfishing scandal? The fallout from that continues to drive a wedge between various members of the Brown family.
In this clip from part two of the Sister Wives Tell All, her fellow sister-wives are asked if they wish that Meri and Kody would just go their separate ways.
And Meri is shocked by their answers.
Early in this clip from the Tell All special, each of Meri"s fellow sister-wives are speaking about how Meri"s catfishing scandal and the ensuing troubles with Kody have impacted them.
Robyn is fairly staightforward with her answer.
"It sucks. The whole thing sucks."
Robyn continues.
"It"s not fun and it"s hard to know what to do with it."
That said, she makes it clear that
"We love Meri, we love Kody, we have to be Switzerland constantly and we hate to see them in this place and it"s stressful for our family."
By Switzerland, she of course means neutral.
Christine Brown, who has the best hair of the family, speaks next.
She is, perhaps, the gentlest.
"It"s sad to see two broken hearts and we don"t know what to do to fix it."
Sometimes, there"s little that an outsider can do.
But Christine explains what they are all doing.
"Just support and be there but there’s broken hearts involved on both sides and its super hard."
Janelle chimes in.
"You know, in our family you don"t just live in a vacuum, like one relationship affects the other 100 percent."
That is true in any polyamorous relationship, and things are still hugely interconnected in the Browm family"s polygamy. Which, Janelle says, means that what impacts one of them impacts them all.
"You feel it when things are out of joint."
It is at this point when Meri is clearly crying.
(Poor Meri!)
Speaking of poor Meri, Andrea does — and you can feel the hesitation in her voice as she says it — pose the question.
Do any of Meri"s fellow sister-wives think that Meri and Kody need to call it quits?
She phrased it more delicately, but she"s clearly asking if they think that everything would be better if Kody just kicked Meri out of the family.
"No one thinks that," Christine reassures Meri.
"None of us think that it’s not supposed to happen or get better."
Even as she comforts Meri, she admits that she doesn"t know what the future holds.
"We don’t know what it looks like in the end but none of us think that."
Honestly, many Sister Wives fans are hoping that Meri can find a better, happier life away from Kody.
It"s not that polygamy is inherently bad, but just that fans really, really do not like Kody. His man-bun, while a great style on some others, isn"t doing him any favors in this Tell-All.
(It"s a combination of his age and his facial hair. Long hair can be great, but Kody isn"t giving off the kind of look at he hopes to)
But what matters is what Meri wants. And she was clearly relieved to hear Christine"s kind words.
