SISTERS Wives star Meri Brown has opened up to fans about feeling “fully manipulated” amid her marriage problems with husband Kody.
Meri, 50, has taken to social media and shared a new picture of herself posing in a ‘power stance’ and wearing a top emblazoned with the word ‘brave’.
Having left Kody, and following the recent and sad death of her beloved mother Bonnie Ahlstrom, Meri has reflected on life’s downs.
She wrote: “Ever had those days, those weeks, those months, when things just keep HAPPENING?
“Doesn’t matter how much you work, how much you push, how much you try, something else comes up. Sometimes it’s just life.
“Sometimes you have to just learn something. Sometimes you’re being fully manipulated and you know it. Don’t worry. Power stance is ON!”
Meri continued: “I’m BRAVE, I’m STRONG, I’m COURAGEOUS, and I WILL do this!
“I will find MY tribe, the people who will STAND with me and not push against me. THOSE are the people that matter.”
Meri’s fans have rallied round, with many pledging their support.
“Stand strong girl! You’ve got this and we have your back!” one told the Sisters Wives star.
Another added: “Meri you are one amazing person! I can relate to wanting to find my tribe. It’s not as easy as it sounds. We got this.”
A third simply wrote: “You Deserve the Best ~ Queen ~ be fierce. Yea! Roaaaarr.”
Meri recently reopened her Utah bed & breakfast, Lizzie’s Heritage Inn, following the death of Bonnie in March.
She had shut its doors for two months while she attempt to come to terms with her mom’s passing.
Bonnie had thoroughly supported Meri’s decision to leave Kody and focus on her business venture, leaving Meri nervous to open it up again on her own.
But in June, she defiantly wrote on Instagram: “After being closed for two months since the passing of my sweet mom, today we welcome our first guests to the B&B and are back open for business.”
Meri and Kody have been struggling in their marriage over the past few years, and rumors have been swirling that they have called it quits after three decades together.
Meri was Kody’s first wife, and the duo tied the knot in 1990, later expanding their family with sister wife Janelle, 51, and his third wife Christine, 49.
Kody decided to formally divorce Meri in 2014 so he could marry Robyn, 42, under the claim that he wanted to adopt her children from a previous relationship.
However, the controversial father-of-18’s relationship then suffered with Meri, who has since demanded an “apology” and “accountability” for his actions.
Amidst their various marital disputes, the original Sister Wife has also revealed that she and Kody haven’t had a sexual relationship in some time.
