Body Language Expert Reveals How The Sister Wives Really Feel About Kody Brown

Meri Brown and Kody Brown have been through a lot together throughout “Sister Wives.” The former couple’s relationship officially ended during a scene in Season 18, which aired in 2023. Kody and Meri sat at a picnic table on their Arizona property with Robyn Brown, and Kody told Meri that the romantic part of their relationship was over. From the start of Kody and Meri’s conversation, it was apparent from their body language that these two do not share the love for one another that they once did, and Robyn’s position at the table made an impact, too. “Considerable distance separates Meri and Kody, as they sit at diagonal ends of the table, a choice typically made by strangers. Robin serves as a buffer between them, both physically and emotionally,” Jess Ponce III said.

While Kody was clear with his words, Meri’s body language told much about her feelings toward her former lover. “Meri’s body is squarely positioned at the table, with only her eyes and a partial shoulder turned toward Kody … Meri, emotionally distant, maintains a resolute posture, suggesting she has carefully considered her stance. While not currently open to change, she remains committed and determined,” Ponce said. Still, Kody wasn’t totally closed off; despite their strain, he was willing to hear what Meri had to say. Per Ponce, “Despite Kody’s crossed arms signaling caution, his angled posture indicates openness and engagement.”
