'Sister Wives': Meri Brown reveals she got a call from the owner asking her to consider leaving the house
The Brown family is set to start their new life in the new house but before they could plan about their future in the house they meet with an obstacle. Meri Brown revealed that she got a call from the owner who was not happy to find out about the family dynamics and asked her if they could vacate the house.
The neighbors contacted the owner of my rental. I had a conversation with the owner. Pretty much the first thing she said to me was, ‘Meri, I am second-guessing the fact that I approved you to rent this house,’” Meri explained to her husband, Kody Brown and sister wives Janelle Brown, Christine Brown and Robyn Brown in a sneak peek shared by Us Weekly.
She asked me if I would consider leaving the house and not renting from her," she continued. Kody was shocked to hear this as they discussed everything with the owner before they moved into the house. She knew about the sister wives. Meri agreed and added, “I was, like, completely open with her. They put it in the contract — in the rental contract. She knows we’re a plural family. She knows we’re gonna be filming in the house.”
She continued, “By the end of the conversation, you know, she was just like, ‘I need to rethink this. I need to consider whether or not I wanna have you continue renting from me.’” Hearing this Kody added that the decision to leave the house does not have to be the owner's choice but rather, it has to be of his and Meri.
Meri hinted the feelings she would go through if asked to leave the house. “If I walk away, what does that say about me? Just being a chicken? Is that like letting them win?” she asks. “Because of their bullying? ‘Cause that’s what it is. They’re bullying me. They’re bullying the owner to kick me out because they don’t like who I am without even knowing me. If I cave and I let them bully me out of this house, then they win.”
'Sister Wives' premieres on TLC Sunday, January 5, at 10 pm ET.
