She has also uploaded videos on topics such as how to identify if you are an abuse survivor or narcissistic, how narcissists behave, and how to move on after leaving a narcissistic ex.
“I think so often we let the voices of everyone but ourselves get into our heads and influence what we think and how we feel,” Meri told her followers.
“I think it’s really easy to let social media comments or just other people’s opinions affect your mood(s) and your productivity.”
“There’s way too much judgment from others,” Meri concluded in the clip. “We don’t need it from ourselves. Worthy friends. We have this.’
Meri and Kody got married in 1990 when he was just 21 years old and she was 19.
They share a 28-year-old child, who is now named Leon and uses she/them pronouns.
Eventually, Meri became one of Kody’s four wives.
The two were together for 32 years before separating in December 2022.
“In light of a recent unapproved press release, we feel compelled to share our own truth, in our own way and at our own timing,” they said in a statement released just days after news of their separation was made public. .
“After more than a decade of working on our relationship in our own unique way, we have made the decision to end our marriage relationship permanently.”

Kody and Meri’s divorce didn’t come as a huge surprise to Sister Wives viewers, as the writing had been on the wall for a while
Their divorce didn’t come as much of a surprise to Sister Wives viewers, as the writing had been on the wall for a while.
During a November 2022 episode of the show, Kody revealed that he “doesn’t consider myself married to Meri.”
Although the two legally divorced in 2014 so he could marry his fourth wife, Robyn, they still acted as husband and wife — or so Meri thought.
“I want to work on the relationship, but Kody actually said he won’t. Does that mean we’re just not married anymore?’ she wondered during the episode. ‘I don’t regard it that way;
Kody, meanwhile, confessed to the cameras, “I don’t really consider myself married to Meri.”
“If she wanted to move on and marry someone else, she wouldn’t get into a fight with me,” he said of his first wife.
In another segment during the episode, he admitted, “Meri’s relationship with the family is strained. There is a whole history of struggle. From the beginning.’
Although the two were legally divorced in 2014 so he could marry his fourth wife, Robyn, they still acted as husband and wife — or so Meri thought.
However, Kody – pictured with wives Janelle, Christine, Meri and Robyn in 2015 – considered his marriage to Meri over before their official split
Now Meri is working on finding her own identity after being one of Kody’s sister wives
Some fans even wondered why she didn’t end the relationship sooner
“I have plenty of questions myself on the whole topic of when and how and why,” she said in an Instagram post in June.
“Right now I’m my very best self and I know my timing was perfect,” she continued.
She added, “That’s all that matters. So what I’m saying is, if you’re kind of stuck right now and you’re trying to figure out why things happen, the way they happen — hold on, because even if you can’t see it now, when you look back on it. It will all make sense.’
Now Meri is working on finding her own identity after being one of Kody’s sister wives.
The reality TV star admits she’s “still learning” to trust herself, but has been working on prioritizing herself since breaking up.
“Something I’m still learning, and that’s trusting myself. So many times I can rationalize or justify “reality” even though my gut tells me otherwise,” she said in a video clip posted June 29.
“So many times I can let other people’s opinions or behavior influence what I know for myself, and that takes my power away from ME and puts it in someone else’s hands.”
She called herself her “best judge,” she added, “because only YOU know what you need, want, deserve. TRUST yourself during your process!’
