Is Meri Brown Dating? Updates on ‘Sister Wives’ Star’s Love Life After Split From Kody Brown
Meri Brown gained fame through the reality show Sister Wives alongside her former spiritual partner, Kody Brown, and her fellow sister wives, Janelle, Robyn, and Christine Brown. After spending 32 years in a polygamous relationship, Meri ventured into monogamy following her separation from Kody in December 2022. Now, fans are curious if Meri has found love again.
Is Meri Brown Currently Dating? As of now, Meri is single. However, she did briefly explore a new relationship after her split from Kody.
Who Was Meri Brown’s First Relationship Post-Kody? In January 2024, Meri celebrated her 53rd birthday by introducing her new boyfriend, Amos Andrews, to her followers. “Birthday is looking a bit different for me this year, and might I say, I like how it looks,” she shared on Instagram. “Meet Amos, the good-looking guy I’ve been dating since October! He’s not 6 foot 6, nor is he a pilot, but he loves Christmas almost as much as I do, and we laugh a lot together, both of which are important elements to a relationship!”
Meri explained her initial decision to keep the relationship low-key, noting that they were “enjoying the last few months of dating and getting to know each other.” Shortly after going public, Amos appeared in an episode of her Instagram series Friday’s With Friends, where he discussed the differences in their lifestyles. Amos admitted Meri’s reality TV background was initially a “red flag” for him, considering he is a private person with no social media presence.
Meri further explained, “I think it was the second time we talked [that I told him about my reality TV career]. He was like, ‘Yeah, I’m a really private person.’ I’m like, ‘Really? How private are you really?’”

In February 2024, Meri shared news of their breakup after four months of dating. “Last week, I had to face some hard truths and have some difficult conversations. Just because I care a lot about someone, and him me, does not equate to full compatibility for a long-term relationship,” she posted. “When we have different dreams and aspirations, different communication styles and values, and different visions for our futures, it’s then that we need to make hard decisions.”
What Happened Between Meri and Kody Brown? Meri confirmed her split from Kody during a sneak peek of Sister Wives: One on One in December 2022, revealing frustration over Kody’s approach to ending their relationship. “It just doesn’t make sense to me that he would be so frustrated with Christine [Brown] and be like, ‘She just made this decision,’” Meri shared, “and then he says, ‘No, I don’t consider myself married to Meri.’ He just made the decision. I’ve never heard him say that to me.”
After the tell-all aired, Meri clarified on Instagram that she did not approve of how the show framed their split, adding that there was “so much more to be told.” She stated, “There is peace in my heart, and I hold no animosity toward Kody.” She also expressed her wish to avoid “rude and demeaning comments” directed at him.
Though they legally divorced in 2014 so Kody could marry Robyn, Meri and Kody remained spiritually married until an October 2024 episode of Sister Wives, when Meri received a “release” from their spiritual bond.
Together, Meri and Kody share one child, Leon Brown.
