Meri Brown seems to have found love again
Meri Brown has sparked romance rumors following her split from Kody Brown.
On December 28, 2024, she shared a festive Instagram post celebrating Christmas with a man identified as Brando Stone, who she tagged in the post.
In the picture, the two are smiling and standing close together inside a home, with their arms around each other.
Meri is wearing a casual black hoodie, while Brandon sports a simple gray T-shirt. In her post, she expressed her joy with the caption
“It’s a Christmas miracle! #MysteryMan #LifeIsGood @papabrandon1005,”
Since her separation from Kody, the TLC personality, 53, has dated other men. She previously dated a man named Amo.
They started dating in October 2023 but broke up shortly thereafter in February 2024.
Reflecting on her relationship with Amos, she expressed that she enjoyed their time together but also stated, “He just wasn’t my person.”
Similarly, she described her current dating status as “non-exclusive,” as she has been exploring new connections. She told PEOPLE,
“You date non-exclusively and then decide, ‘Okay, I can focus on this person.’ Lets’s be exclusive, And then see whether it turns into anything. That one did not work. And so we broke up, and now I’m dating non-exclusively.”
The reality TV star shared that she mainly uses dating sites to look for potential matches, but she has also “met a couple of people through people.” She added,
“But when you live in a small town, and then this day and age, it seems to be the thing is the dating sites,”
Furthermore, Sister Wives star mentioned that she is learning more about herself and others through this process.
“I am learning about myself. I am learning about other people. I am learning to trust myself and say, ‘Hmm, I’m getting a funny vibe.’ This person is 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.”
She added,
“There’s nothing wrong with a person even if they don’t give off a hilarious feeling. It’s simply not for me.”
Kody Brown’s heartfelt yet confusing goodbye to Meri Brown
In a November episode of Sister Wives, Kody Brown appeared visibly upset while helping his ex-wife, Meri Brown, with her move from Flagstaff, Arizona, to her new home in Salt Lake City.
He expressed mixed feelings, saying,
“I’m glad you’re my favorite ex-wife, but it’s the weirdest thing to be in that place. I love the life I have, but it’s a very different life thena what I had three years ago.”
This moment was unexpected for Meri, especially when Kody offered to walk her down the aisle if she chose to remarry, which leaved her confused about his intentions. She questioned,
“I don’t know where this is coming from… He has made it clear that he did not want me in his life, so why this emotion?”
In her confessional, she added,
“The fact that he’s saying he wants to walk me down the aisle when I get married again… Like, why would he say that?”
Meri and Kody’s separation was officially confirmed in January 2023, after over three decades of marriage.
However, they had legally divorced in 2014 to allow Kody to marry his fourth wife, Robyn Brown, and adopt her children from a previous relationship.
Following their split in January 2023, Meri officially ended their spiritual marriage through their church.
Their relationship faced numerous challenges, including Kody’s lack of commitment and Meri’s past experiences with being catfished.
Notably, Meri is not the only one moving on from Kody Brown. Currently he is only in a relationship with Robyn, his fourth wife, while he is separated from Janelle and Christine Brown, who were also part of his plural marriage.
