Sister Wives fans faced serious drama on the November 10 episode. Janelle Brown had a brutally honest talk with Meri Brown.
With tensions at an all-time high over the Coyote Pass property, Janelle felt compelled to warn Meri about the looming financial crisis and Kody Brown’s role in it.
Janelle laid out the stakes, telling Meri, “If we don’t make [the payment], he can repossess the whole thing. We will lose it.” The family has a tight 75-day deadline to pay off the property, and Janelle, who has been handling the bookkeeping, is deeply worried.
However, Meri’s response was shockingly nonchalant. “I’m not worried about that,” she said, brushing off Janelle’s concerns.
The chat grew awkward. Janelle realized, with some distress, that Kody had misled the family. “I am beginning to realize that Kody has been telling everybody that I am somehow controlling the [family’s] money,” she said in a confessional.
“And trust me, if I really was, we would be in a very different position.” It’s a claim that Meri didn’t seem to fully dispute. She admitted, “I’ve been under the impression for many, many years that you’re the one who’s been taking care of all the family finances.”

Sister Wives: Meri’s Loyalty to Kody and Robyn Raises Eyebrows
Despite Janelle Brown’s warning, Meri appeared reluctant to believe that Kody and Robyn could be untrustworthy. “I don’t think that there’s really any need for protection,” Meri said, showing a loyalty that left fans scratching their heads. “Don’t you think that we have each other’s backs as far as that goes?” But Janelle didn’t mince words. “No, I really don’t,” she replied, adding that she felt the need to protect herself legally.
In her confessional, Meri seemed torn and confused. “I feel like everybody in the family has a different opinion about the other person, about what has been happening with the finances,” she explained.
“And I don’t know which of it is true. .. I’m not going to take sides. I’m not going to be in the ex-wives club. I’m not in the Kody and Robyn club.” Janelle was frustrated by her refusal to act.
The conversation ended unresolved. “Sorry that you feel like that,” Meri Brown said dismissively as Janelle made plans to “lawyer up” and protect herself.
Meri:”I dont think Kody would screw us outta our money”

Sister Wives: Kody Brown’s Lies About Janelle’s Role in the Family Finances
This explosive fight shocks no Sister Wives fans. They know of the financial drama over Coyote Pass. Janelle Brown has long been seen as the responsible one.
Yet, Kody has been telling everyone that she controls the money. The reality, as Janelle made clear, is quite different. “If we prioritized [the money], there was always enough,” she told Meri, emphasizing that Kody’s refusal to make payments is what’s put them in jeopardy.
The financial turmoil has worsened after three divorces. Janelle, Christine, and Meri all left Kody in two years, leaving Robyn as his only remaining wife.
Janelle, who has always been careful with the family’s money, is now realizing how deeply Kody’s misinformation has spread.
Her confession was telling: “Kody has been putting me off for years when it comes to paying off Coyote Pass, claiming he ‘doesn’t have the money.” But, as she pointed out, that wasn’t true.
For the love of god, listen to Janelle, Meri!!! #SisterWives pic.twitter.com/NP8jFAQ06n

Sister Wives Fans Worry About Meri’s Naïveté
Meri’s apparent trust in Kody and Robyn has many fans concerned. She’s made it clear she wants to stay out of the drama, but her passive approach could have serious financial consequences.
“Meri wants to believe the best in people, but it’s just not realistic,” one fan commented on social media. With her financial future at stake, Meri’s reluctance to take action is baffling to those who see Janelle’s warning as a desperate but necessary move.
For Janelle, the situation is critical enough to consider legal action. Her decision to “lawyer up” is a clear sign that she’s done relying on Kody’s empty promises. Whether or not Meri will eventually see the danger is unclear, but for now, she’s choosing to stay on the fence.
