Meri Brown gets emotional during phase 2 of Sister Wives: 1-on-1 after learning Christine Brown shared her non-public wedding ring story with host Sukanya Krishnan.
“I am extremely frustrated at this time. Beyond,” Meri, 52, confesses in Us Weekly’s unique sneak peek at the Sunday, December 3, episode of the Sister Wives tell-all, which is part of the multi-episode reunion. “After we did the taping for the 1-on-1 interviews with Suki, I found out that a story used to be introduced up about me that isn't a story that I have ever shared publicly.”
Meri gets choked up as she explains, “That is my story to tell when, the place and the way I need to. And someone else took it upon themselves to tell that story. And now I’m being compelled to speak about it. I’m now not satisfied about it.”
Meri is referring to Christine, 51, getting candid about Meri and Kody Brown’s dating prior to their January break up. Christine main points the history of Kody’s wedding ring in Us’ exclusive teaser from the upcoming episode. (Meri in the past noticed Kody, 54, with a brand new ring that appeared to be from fourth wife Robyn Brown on an October episode of the TLC sequence.)
“There’s a backstory right here. I don’t feel love it’s all of the way my position, however here we're,” Christine says within the video, sharing that when Meri and Kody tied the knot in 1990 they each had a wedding ring.
According to Christine, Kody persisted to wear the ring for years however once Robyn, 45, entered the picture it seemed to disappear. Meri and Kody legally divorced in 2014 so Kody could marry Robyn and undertake her 3 children from a previous marriage. Meri and Kody remained spiritually married until their 2023 split.
“He melted down the ring, saved the gold, stored the diamonds,” Christine claims of the initial jewellery item within the upcoming episode. “Well, Meri came upon she’s like, ‘Well, where’s my ring? You don’t put on it anymore.’ He’s like, ‘I melted it down’. Just like that. He’s like, ‘I didn’t need Meri to have keep an eye on over me and gear over me anymore.’”
Christine notes that following the ring drama, she and all of Kody’s then-wives talented him a brand new band known as a Claddagh ring, which is a Celtic accent supposed to symbolize love, loyalty and friendship. He wore it for years — as did Meri, Christine, Robyn and Janelle Brown — before he split from Christine in 2021 and Janelle, 54, in 2022. Kody used to be later noticed with a brand new ring while filming season 18, which tapped in 2022.
While Meri did touch upon Kody’s “other” ring all through an October Sister Wives episode, she didn’t wait for her feedback on the jewelry would lead to Christine sharing her own ring story publicly.
“It used to be not Christine’s business to inform,” Meri says in Us’ first take a look at the brand new episode. “If I sought after to have shared that story in the ultimate 13 years in a public approach, I might have completed that.”
