Sister Wives star Meri Brown has always been presented as a victim of her polygamist husband, Kody Brown, but she is the chief architect of her unhappiness. 53-year-old Meri was Kody’s first wife, and the two were married in 1990. Though they came from polygamous families, when they first got married, the plan wasn’t necessarily to take on more wives. Within the next three years, Kody would take on two additional wives, Janelle Brown and Christine Brown. 16 years after that, he’d marry his fourth wife, Robyn Brown.
