I was able to watch the second half directly. Missed the first half and watched it in the morning. (The live stream started at 2 a.m. here in Germany). Kody really was all over the place... Not wanting a relationship with a girl. Then inviting Meri for Christmas (or was it Thanksgiving). Then proposing to Meri before her father's consent. Writing again and again how much he adored and loved Meri. I can only chime in with Meri: Were you lying then or are you lying now? That pathetic Ramen Head... 🍜

Fell asleep during the live 🤦♀️ so watching the rest on replay. Fun fact: Meri and Kody got married on the same day, same year (1990) as my husband and me. So we were getting married at the exact same time as them 🧐 difference: I’ve loved my husband since I was 16 years old and while there have been some bumps in the road over the last 35+ years, we are happily married and love each other very much ❤ my hope for Meri is that she find true happiness, someone to love her unconditionally, and isn’t crazy like Kody. Oh and someone who is NOT a narcissist 🤨 she deserves to be happy after all she’s been through.

You are my favorite host and very rarely do I feel that way. Thank you for being Gen X! I was born in the late 1960’s, you? 😃 I hope you know how outstanding you are! I look forward to your videos, because I know I will laugh. Thank you for virtual hugs, through tears, for the last few days. I donated in Garrison’s name to the Cat Sanctuary he loved. It made my heart happy, that I could finally do something for him. They are naming the Cat Wing after him. Just wanted to make sure you knew and this sweet community did. Just in case someone wanted to. I have never read the book. Great idea! Kody exhausts me though, your commentary makes it fun. You are a Super Sister Friend! Take Care and have a lovely weekend.

It was great to have each other as we heard the news of Garrison. More connection that what most get for the loss of a loved one. I've donated to a cat shelter in my town in Garrison's honor. Seems like a little thing to do, but when we don't know WHAT to do, there is peace in knowing we're paying it forward.

You should have at least some direction at 22. Especially if you chose to marry. You need to be a provider. By the time I was 22 (hubby was 26) we had been married 4 years, had 2 kids, just built our first home (on our own-no help from parents, no windfalls just loans), and he had been working his job for 8 years and was getting certs (welding) and moving up 👍 and I had started my career in banking. Only part time at first bc I wanted to be home with the kids too. It eventually led to me building my career, working full time and advancing through every level into management. So, Meri stating they don’t have any direction with their careers is concerning. I taught both my kids and am teaching my granddaughter to have discernment. Is the person you’re looking to be with long term stable? Are they independent and financially responsible? Will they contribute and help pay the bills? All things to consider before marriage. Ok stepping down off my soapbox 🙃

Several of Meri's siblings have been on the show. Also Meri is the only sibling still alive from the five OLDEST siblings. She still has bio siblings but they were younger. When Adam, brother who was married to Janelle, died, she made it clear that she was now the last of those who were born in California. Anyhow, I hope this makes sense. xoxo

It just cracks me up that Meri, Janelle, and Kody all talk about having been "devout" members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Those of us who really are devout members would NEVER leave the church to practice polygamy. It seemed awfully easy for all of them to leave our faith. Doesn't sound so devout to me. Just sayin'. 😉

I haven't bought the book (yet). If the Browns are the publisher, maybe it has been Christine editing the book? I remember hearing from Gwen that Christine has a bachelor in English and literature (correct me if I'm not accurate...). Theory #1: So my guess is: the editing work was done by the family/Christine. Theory #2: Who ever edited the book, didn't want her/his name published. I can totally see this option. The editor may have said "I can edit crap, but I want to stay anonymous". By the way: I used to a be translator/editor at a publishing house for magazines. I could have deleted my own name any time I wanted.... 😁😁

I caught the end of the live, so im starting a replay watch from the beginning. You seemed a little confused about the house Kody and Meri rented from Janelle. I know they met when K & M were starting to date, and Janelle was still married to Meri's brother. Not sure if the house they rented was from Meri's ex, but they did share a house for awhile. But you were correct when you mentioned her grandfather leaving some money to Janelle, and that's when they bought the Lehi house. (After he love bombed her to bring her back.)

I do not like Kody or the way he behaves. But I can feel bad for him at this time. My husband went through something like this. His dad was estranged from all the kids after the divorce. His brother ended up committing suicide. And it really devastated his father. He blamed himself for not being there for his son. In this case there was kind of a silver lining because his dad woke up and started to reconnect with his family. It took a couple of years for them to trust him. He did do a lot of changing and now the family gets along great and his dad is involved with all the children. It's just a shame it took something like that to bring him around

When they get married they kneel over an altar. LDS have very short courtships, it’s not unusual for a couple to date once or twice, get into a courtship and propose within 1-2 months and marry by the time by the time they are together 6 months. They are encouraged to marry young and have kids as soon as possible.

The Calling / Sacrifice aspect ..... he dramatically stated, right after the kidney knife statement.... the sacrifices I made ..... So apparently he sees it as such. On a similar facet, I was perplexed that in one hand some divorced the church and beliefs yet in talking head video would still say In our religion..... example was Janelle regarding Christine marrying David and her father being supportive..... saying " In our religion. " .... not in his, and formerly my religion. They're either confused or they're on a script playing plays and it's not tight.

Lol. Kody said he’s converting not cause of his love for marry but because he was drawn to the principle. I think you may have missed that cause you asked ‘why didn’t he ask her to convert?’ This kinda leads to the path where we can fairly assume that he married Meri in order to live polygamy

Meri is way too jealous of a person to be in polygamy. The Brown children knew at 16 they were not going to live Polygamy, why did she agree to it? I know Meri says she wanted Polygamy, it was her idea- BUT I still do not BELIEVE Meri, I feel Kody forced Meri into it or not be married to him!

Jenny's feelings about Merri are up and down and from what I saw on what TLC provided in video of her might indicate the up down of her behaviors. The way a brain isn't clicking along in order to be participatory with people .... shuts down in stress .... That's profoundly shown when fire was a threat as well as when she wanted to buy the BmB. She impulsively, initially has thoughts and starts to act on them and soon she was shown in tears, being consoled, saying I don't know what I'm going. Among other things basically throughout. I hope if she's seemingly changed lately it's due to no longer avoiding help in one form or another. I do not forsee Christine nor Janelle wanting to engage with her due to past performances. Imagine what went on that was not put out by TLC.

I believe Mary when she said she wasn’t thinking, Cordy boyfriend, boyfriend, girlfriend, I too Linda sheltered life mother make sure of it that religious sheltered and I had no clue 1415 years old. I had no clue boys were after you. I lost a lot of dates because I didn’t know and I always did like Mary, because I felt she was very truthful to fault, although she never pushed Anything with Cody because that was her adopted and that she actually lost friendships with her sister wives but she chose and I believe that Cody never did love the three OG. All he was allowed to have sex those years per his religion so he got married she was smitten. He got her attention and he was gonna go after it so we had to merrier. I raise four boys. They all told me that when they wanted a girl and that way they believed at the time they loved her of course, later they realize it wasn’t love at all, so I believe he was going after having a hair him he could have sex with three different women. He collected mommies and then fell in love if you can believe a narcissist can love. 47:57 48:01 48:02

I’ve got to say Cody fulfilled the deal. Of course it’s Cody‘s new rules since he took the family out of their community with the church he is now there, Lord and Savior and leader in there polygamist cult, religious doctrine. He asked Mary his actual legal wife to set him up so he did fulfill the deal, the wives are only spiritual wives so technically in his mind, he had someone a wife handle, picking out the new wife. Of course, this is all in Cody’s head.
