From Kody’s perspective, he sees Meri’s Utah B&B as her “safe and happy place” and believes it’s a “good thing.” But he wasn’t sure if he should “be reading between the lines.”
“I can’t tell if she’s saying, ‘Hey, I’m going to move my business to the B&B’ so I go, ‘No, no, Meri, please don’t, stay here,'” he told the cameras. “I don’t see her that often. But I’m not trying to act like we’re getting back into this marriage full fledge. I’m not trying to do that. I think I see the writing on the wall. I’m literally waiting for her to catch up.”
“I’m not complaining about her B&B, I’m just questioning what she’s doing,” he added. “What are you doing, Meri? In my head, I’m really wondering why she lives in Flagstaff.”
Meri, however, expressed that she still has “hope” about her future with Kody as she declared her interest in permanently remaining in Flagstaff. But this conversation left her with less hope, saying in a confessional, “Conversations like this basically just tell me, ‘Go ahead, Meri, and justlive your life on your own like you’ve been doingbecause nothing else is going to change.'”
Although Meri noted that it wouldn’t “bother” her if they did, the trio, alongside Kody’s now-ex-wivesJanelle BrownandChristine Brown, previously made a rule choosing to be “a little bit more careful and a little bit more reserved” instead of showing PDA in front of each other.
When it comes to his marriage with Meri, Kody felt “the writing is on the wall. It’s been obvious to me. When I try to go into that discussion with Meri, I get so much resistance. It’s not really fair to either of us. But as long as she wants to live in this denial, I guess I can live in it with her.”
