Sister Wives star Meri Brown reveals she is dating after recent split amidst Kodi separation

Sister Wives star Meri Brown revealed that she is single and ready to mingle after a recent split amidst her separation from ex-husband Kodi.

The 53-year-old reality star - who recently admitted that she doesn't miss living in Flagstaff - talked about got candid about her journey finding love in an interview released with People magazine on Thursday.

Meri went public with a new boyfriend named Amos in January but it proved to be short-lived as she announced their split just a month later. 

She told the weekly: 'He just wasn't my person. We dated exclusively for a few months, and he just wasn't my person.'

Meri has had a wild dating life as she legally divorced Kody Brown in 2014 in order for him to marry his fourth wife, Robyn Brown, so he could adopt Robyn's children from her previous marriage.

She also was catfished by a woman pretending to be a man and even had to deal with Kody's lack of effort in working on their relationship which led to their separation in January 2023.

  She opened up about the 'dating process' with People magazine as she said: 'Right now, I'm dating, not exclusively. But you date non-exclusively, and then you're like, "Okay, I can focus on this person. Let's be exclusive."

'And then, see if it works into something. That one just didn't. And so, we broke that off and now I'm dating non-exclusively.'

Meri is utilizing several different avenues to find love including dating sites and meeting through mutual friends which she preferred.

However, she explained: 'But when you live in a small town, and then this day and age, it seems to be the thing is the dating sites.'

She also believes that the most important thing is that she work on herself.

Meri said: 'I'm learning about myself. I'm learning about other people.

'I am learning to trust myself and be like, "Hmm, I'm getting a funny vibe. This person's just not for me."

'Even if it's just not a funny vibe, nothing's wrong with a person. It's just not for me.'

Last month, the reality star reflected on her time in Flagstaff, Arizona and seemingly did not miss it one bit.

She was preparing to leave Flagstaff to Parowan, Utah, to run her bed and breakfast dubbed Lizzie's Heritage Inn, on the November 17 episode, following her split with Kody Brown.

Now the reality star is opening up about the movie in a new interview with People, where she was asked about her time in Flagstaff.

When asked if she missed the city, Brown bluntly said, 'Nope. Not at all,' though that was not because of the its scenic beauty.

'Flagstaff was—it's beautiful. We all know I love the trees. Watch any season and you'll know Meri loves the trees. And it's beautiful. It really is,' Brown admitted.

However, she added, 'I lived there for three or four years and I never made any friends there.'

She moved there while she was with Kody Brown, who she was married to from 1990 to 2023, the first of his four wives he had at once, for many years, with just Robyn now remaining. 

'It just wasn't for me. I moved there because the family did. It was not ever on my radar, "Oh, Flagstaff, Arizona. We should live there,"' she admitted.

'I think it's really important to find your place, especially in this age that we're in. We're all in our 50s, it's like, "Just find your place. Do what makes you happy,"' she said.

Brown added returning to Utah, 'made sense to me because I already owned the house.'

'Contrary to popular belief in my family, I did not buy it as an escape route. Just putting that out there,' she said.

'I did buy it because it was always a dream of mine to have my old family home back in the family, so it made sense at the time,' Brown clarified.

'Why keep living in a town where I don't know anybody, I don't have friends? Kody and I are completely separating. I'm not going to be a part of the family. There's no point in me being there,' she said. 

'And I had a house in Parowan, so let's do that. And I gave myself two years to just settle and then figure stuff out. We're coming up on two years,' Brown said.

The following episode on November 24 showed her ex Kody welling up with tears after helping her move to Utah.

As they embraced, tears welled up in his eyes, and his voice cracked with emotion as he he told her he hoped to walk her down the aisle once she remarried.

'Meri’s just on point today. She’s just the wonderful woman that I would have liked to have been married to,' Kody gushed while back at Meri's home in Arizona during the Sister Wives episode that aired on Sunday, November 24.

'Hey, listen, we're like the best divorced couple ever,' Meri joked to her polygamist ex.
