Meri Brown, who bravely explored the ins and outs of polygamy with her husband, Kody Brown, is looking back at the time she was caught up in a rather fishy catfishing scandal.
As we sip tea and watch, she also offers insight into the ongoing ups and downs of her relationship with the “Sister Wives” patriarch.
Meri Brown Describes Catfishing Scandal Amid Strained Relationship With Kody
As the complexities of their relationship continue to unfold on the popular reality series, Meri finds herself delving into a chapter from her past that still holds weight. The TV personality is no stranger to controversy, and she’s not afraid to set the record straight.
On the latest episode of the TLC show, “Sister Wives,” the reality TV star took a moment to reflect on the controversy, revealing that “so much crap is made about it.”
He admitted to engaging in a catfishing relationship in 2015, thinking he was communicating with a man, only to discover that his online companion was, in fact, a woman. Without delving into specifics, Meri shared her story with a mixture of frustration and excitement, saying:
“So I was conned a few years ago by a big fat liar. The whole story was really blown out of proportion and so much crap was made about it.” He added, “And I still have a hard time talking about it just because everyone has their opinion about it. But, like, I know my truth. Even with our family, some of our own families have their own opinions about it.”
Because of his experience, this led him to take extra precautions when he connected with a gay interior designer named Blair online for business purposes. He humorously stated:
“We did meet online at first, but eventually in person. There are so many people, obviously, who put themselves out there as someone other than who they really are. So you have to be careful who you meet online.”
The catfishing incident, which was one of the many challenges Meri and Kody’s relationship went through, only added strain to their already fragile union.
The entrepreneur initially poured his heart out about their relationship. She told how the 54-year-old had made it clear on their anniversary that any hope of rekindling their romance was gone forever.
“Kody basically told me that he was never going to be in a relationship with me and basically had no hope of that because it was never going to happen,” Meri revealed with her voice full of sadness.
The 52-year-old was hurt by Kody’s outright rejection, causing her to question the value of the three decades they spent together. His frustration and disappointment is palpable as he openly expresses his anger, stating:
“For him, he is not worth it. Scary to think about [splitting for good]. It really is. Because it’s not what I want. I don’t want him to come to me [and say]’I really don’t want to be in a relationship with you anymore’… yet, here we are.”

Previous episodes of the TLC show revealed another layer of the mother-of-one’s complex and emotional journey. Opening up about the dissolution of her marriage to Kody in a confessional, she explained the inner turmoil she was going through.
According to the star, breaking his vow to the patriarch was a painful decision, and it goes against the values he holds deeply. The business owner stated that ending their union “doesn’t fit my values because I’m not married to Kody and making this permanent deal just to be like, ‘Mmm, it’s not working for us. I think I’ll calm down.’”
He expressed his uncertainty about navigating the situation, admitting, “Right now, I don’t know what to do about it. I don’t know what to do about it.” However, he remains steadfast in his commitment to transparency.
Meri refused the family patriarch’s request to keep the details of their relationship private, asserting her right to tell her own story. She also elaborated on two potential paths she sees for her relationship with Kody:
“Go on living like I’ve been for the last eight years, which is, you know, an amazing, badass, independent person who’s officially married to someone but not emotionally, right? Or, I can end it. I can take steps to move forward to solve it.”
