Sister Wives: "Primary Colors!": Meri Brown's Cutest Red, Green & Blue Outfits After Glam Weight Loss Transformation

   

After 32 years of marriage, Sister Wives stars Meri Brown and Kody Brown called it quits, and she has since been losing weight and looking better than ever. Meri was the first of Kody's four wives. They were married in 1990 and had one child together. Meri wanted more children, but it wasn't in the cards. She chose polygamy for religious reasons, but she and Kody struggled to make the relationship work. Many years before their divorce, Kody and Meri had stopped living as husband and wife, and Kody was honest about not being attracted to Meri.

The Sister Wives season 18 stars announced their split in January 2023. Meri and Kody already divorced legally in 2014 because Kody wanted to marry Robyn Brown. Being legally married would make it easier for Kody to adopt Robyn's three children from a past marriage. Despite being legally separated, Kody and Meri were still in a spiritual union until the dissolution of their relationship. Since leaving Kody, Meri has been losing weight and focusing on her health goals. She has also been experimenting with her style and wearing brighter colors. Here are Meri's best looks in primary colors.

Having always loved Christmas, Meri wasn't going to let her divorce dampen her holiday fun. In December 2023, Meri posted an Instagram photo that received 54.2K likes. In the heavily filtered selfie, Meri posed in front of a white Christmas tree, rocking a choppy red shoulder-length bob hair and a red holiday sweatshirt.

The caption reads, " Merry Christmas Y'all! Hoping you have a beautiful and magical day surrounded by friends and family! "

By the time Meri ended her marriage with Kody, his second and third wives, Janelle Brown and Christine Brown, had already walked away. The Brown family tacitly separated into two: Team Christine and Janelle on one side and Team Kody and Robyn on the other. Meri was stuck with Kody and Robyn, cutting off her connections to Christine, Janelle, and all their children. With Meri's one child grown up and out of the house, all Meri had was Kody and Robyn. When the Sister Wives star finally ended things with Kody, she was on her own.

Separated from the rest of the Brown family, Meri had to lean on her friends, which must be especially hard during the holidays.

Meri Brown Mixed Two Shades Of Green

It Made Her Blue Eyes Pop

In July 2023, Meri posted a selfie in which she wore two shades of green, and the effect was stunning. The double green made her blue eyes pop. In this photo, Meri was experimenting with adding red strands to her hair. Though it's unclear how much weight Meri has lost, her face is noticeably slimmer than ever before. The post has 38.8K likes. Meri's caption reads, in part, "Just added a little red to match the definition. I definitely don't hate it." She went on to add, "New hair to go along with new life."

Meri's life has changed dramatically since she left Kody and she has never looked better.

Living Her Best Life

Meri and Kody didn't officially announce their split until January 2023, but Meri was already living as a single woman long before. She even vacationed on her own, without Kody or the rest of the Brown family. In October 2022, Meri posted a vacation shot to Instagram. In the photo, Meri and her friend, artist and interior designer Blaire Michael, pose with a statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse. Meri is beaming in the photo, and the caption reads, "Favorite photo of the day!"

Meri wore a deep blue top and glamorous sunglasses, and her trendy bob was flipped over to the side.

Meri and Blaire are just friends, but Meri has waded back into the dating world since her split from Kody. It wasn't long after she came out as a single woman that Meri met Amos Andrews, and the relationship got very serious quickly. Fellow sister wife Christine Brown had married David Woolley a few short years after leaving Kody, and hopes were high that Meri and Amos would go down a similar path. Sadly, the relationship ended soon after it began. In February, Meri announced the breakup with Amos and was single again.

Meri always had an entrepreneurial spirit, even during her plural marriage with Kody and his other wivesThe Browns were involved in various business ventures over the years. For starters, the Browns had a clothing store, a jewelry business, and a 2012 New York Times bestseller called Becoming Sister Wives: The Story of Unconventional Marriage. Near the end of her marriage, Meri made a lifelong dream come true by turning her grandmother's old house into a charming bed and breakfast called Lizzie's Heritage Inn.

​​​​According to Meri's official website, she has been busy growing her empire. The landing page of her site reads, "Unveiling The Heart. A Journey Through The Layers Of Meri's World," and focuses on her business ventures.
