The Sister Wives viewer observed how Meri keeps making "icily-delivered cryptic statements." They added, "The whole town of Parowan is gonna be on lockdown!" Other fans chimed in to say that they would readily pre-order the book. Someone mentioned how they never liked Meri before, but they are now rooting for her to be happy and hope she finds someone who treats her well. Kody married Meri in 1990. She was in a happy marriage with him and readily ed his decision to marry Janelle in 1993. The original pair's marriage was strained the most when Meri was catfished after having an online relationship with a woman pretending to be a man.

Meri became entangled in a six-month affair in March 2015, and it served as the tipping point in her already damaged marriage to Kody. Meri and Kody's relationship remained in limbo since then. Their marriage was sexless before she and Kody were publicly estranged. Kody claimed he faked being in love with Meri and had to put up with "things" because of their family. Meri and Kody tried going to couples' therapy to help repair the marriage. It was of no use as Kody had already checked out of their relationship years earlier.

When Kody and Meri confirmed the end of their marriage after 32 years in a t statement, they said that they tried saving it for 10 years in their own unique ways. Meri did have hopes of Kody returning to her, but in the end, she decided it was not fair for her to be alone like she had been for years. She knew it wasn't fair for Kody to feel like he had to keep up with a duty. While Meri appears to be enjoying her life as a single woman since the split, the Sister Wives patriarch had once said he would not be offended if Meri were to find another man or husband.

Sister Wives airs Sundays at 10 p.m. EST on TLC.
