Sister Wives star Meri Brown shared the backstory about the explosion that hit when this TLC celebrity stepped out with a man on her arm. She also explained why this became the beginning of the end for her with a rather naive man.

Sister Wives: Meri Brown Didn’t Get Through to Him

Meri Brown opened up in her latest interview with Sarah Fraser. Her best friend, Jenn Sullivan also added some info when questions came up. One of the topics of course was Meri Brown’s love life.

While she severed her marriage to Kody Brown, she still finds herself wondering about her choice of timing. Many Sister Wives fans think Meri should have jumped that sinking ship long before she did.

Meri doesn’t have a solid answer for that. As she sometimes wonders about it too. So, this Sister Wives celebrity realizes today she could have dated in her 40s instead of her 50s. But she also believes if she had left any earlier, she would always have a “what if” hovering over her.

So, she hung on for as long as she did, hoping Kody would give their marriage another try. Sister Wives history tells us Meri Brown tried, but Kody wouldn’t budge.

Jenn Sullivan and Meri Describe Naive Man

Kody made it clear they had no future as shared husband and co-wife. So, she started dating, but suddenly it sounded like she was quite smitten with Amos Andrews. He was the only guy, after Kody, that she introduced to the Sister Wives fans. But before Meri did that, both she and Jenn read Amos the riot act.

They warned him. Both these women told him coming out as Meri’s boyfriend would put his life under a microscope. They also told him he would read lies about himself and likely see his name dragged through the mud. But these ladies think Amos didn’t understand the full scope of this.

He was laid back and indicated he would be fine with this. So, he opted to be introduced to the masses. Then it happened, Amos was pulled apart in pieces and any unfortunate step he might have made in the past became the day’s headlines.

Sister Wives: A Little of Both?

When Meri announced her split with Amos, fans thought she likely learned things about him that she didn’t know before. They thought that maybe she learned these things from the headlines about him. Reports were gnarly, and Sister Wives fans thought Meri backed away from him because of these things reported.

But, it seems it was too much for Amos. Meri and Jenn suggested that he was the victim of lies. He was also unhappy about some things drudged up that he wanted to be left in the past.

So, there you have it, from what Meri Brown and Jenn Sullivan said to Sarah during the interview, it was some lies and some of his history surfacing that caused that split. Jenn said he was a “sweetly naive” guy who took this on.

So, it looks like the next time Meri Brown introduces a love interest, this guy should heed her warnings. His life will be an open book, but not just from the time he meets Meri Brown. No, the fans of this TLC series dig way back and dig deep.
