Sister Wives: Kody Insulted Meri With His “Barndominium” Plan (Why Does He Put Her Down Like This?)

Sister Wives star Kody Brown hatched a new plot that’s reminiscent of his Coyote Pass disaster. Will the patriarch build a “barndominium”?

Kody Brown devised a bizarre “Barndominium” plan in Sister Wives season 18, which made Meri feel insignificant. Kody frequently minimizes Meri when they speak, and this interaction was no different. Although he appears unaware of his own callousness, there is a significant likelihood that he is being harsh on purpose in order to make their relationship crystal plain and unmistakable. The most recent episode, “The Writing Is On The Wall,” had Meri discussing her desire to leave Flagstaff. Living in a “barndominium” that would hold things that he doesn’t have room for in his “real” home, as recommended by Kody, was a depressing alternative.

Although Kody and Robyn do in fact reside in a luxurious home in Flagstaff, it would appear that Kody requires additional room for his possessions and vehicles. He is therefore daydreaming about constructing a “barndominium” where he can keep everything, including Meri. A barn with a loft is referred to as a “barndominium”. The building serves as both a private dwelling and a barn. Kody’s strategy was surprising last night during the most recent Sister Wives season 18 episode. His lack of consideration for Meri is nearly unfathomable. Kody, though, is most likely just attempting to get a rise out of Meri for a valid purpose. He might have a goal in mind.

Kody’s Posing As A Polygamist To Keep Robyn’s Respect

When it comes to reality show stars Meri and Janelle Brown, Kody’s faking any interest. While he seems to at least try with Janelle, the truth may be darker. During the episode, Kody shared an interesting fact. He said that he was staying in plural marriage because he was afraid that Robyn wouldn’t respect him if he bailed out. This was something a bit unusual and interesting. At that point, he may not have realized that Robyn also wanted monogamy. She didn’t reveal that publicly until after the season was filmed.

So, trying to halfheartedly find a way for Meri to stay in Flagstaff was likely just part of his agenda – pleasing Robyn. Of course, he doesn’t really want Meri anywhere in his orbit. He’s neglected her for years, seriously damaging her fragile self-esteem. He may have been playing the same game when he took Janelle to the ritzy Mariposa eatery during a jaunty, “first date.” He’s not trying to help his “other” wives – he’s trying to impress Robyn. Kody’s totally in love with Robyn.

Is Kody Just Playing A Part?

He said something telling on-screen about Janelle: “I’ve been in love with her before and I can be in love with her again.” Both his behavior and comments are awful! Meri and Janelle will undoubtedly suffer as a result of this. Knowing that millions of people will hear his words, no gentleman would speak them loudly. Kody’s out of control, which only serves to highlight the fact that his attempts to make amends with the wives who are less enticing to him are pure, unadulterated phoniness.

It’s sad in a way. In season 18, Janelle’s actually enjoying some aspects of her date with Kody, but something’s, “off.” When she held his hand, she quickly pulled away because it didn’t feel right. That’s probably because Kody’s pretending to care about her to placate Robyn. So, that leaves Janelle feeling bad, but not as bad as Meri felt when he suggested she dwell in his still-imaginary “barndominium.” Meri’s face really fell when he ran that kooky idea by her.

Even more tragically, Meri had to enlist the assistance of the blatantly passive-aggressive Robyn when she revealed her relocation plans to Kody. In her opinion, Kody wouldn’t truly pay attention to her unless Robyn was standing by, advocating for her. But Robyn has never really stood up for her. In fact, she has probably already done a lot of damage to herself by giving in to Kody’s demands and separating him from his other family members.

Meri needs to wake up, and she did after season 18. Any lingering hope that she had seems to have died a painful death during the drama-fueled season. Truly, that’s for the best. However, onscreen, it’s tough to watch Kody mistreat her, under the guise of trying to help her. Meri’s not a bad person, and no one deserves that. Kody might point to the catfishing scandal as a convenient excuse for making Meri feel so disposable. However, a good man would never sink to such depths.

When he wasn’t taunting Meri with the “barndominium” idea, which he probably suspected wouldn’t thrill her, he was showing off a great big ring on his finger, and cryptically refusing to explain its significance. Kody’s into jewelry, and prefers bolder designs, such as flashy David Yurman pendants. This ring’s a little gaudier than his pendant. However, it’s not its dubious design that raises questions. It’s the fact that it’s replacing a Claddagh ring. Everyone in the family wore one of those Irish rings. By cruelly flaunting his bling, Kody’s really putting the screws to Meri. There’s no way that isn’t intentional.

In season 18 of Sister Wives, Kody exhibits striking selfishness. He’s really toughened up and is all about Robyn. Kody is actually a very jaded man. He is hostile even toward his children. His aspirations of living in a farm and a loft are basically simply him prioritizing himself again. Meri is being treated as just another thing that Kody doesn’t value highly enough to truly prize because he needs more space for his junk. Kody is therefore not a winner. The man is a scumbag, and his wives who aren’t Robyn are finding out exactly how icily he can be. They would be better off without him and could even be surprised by his transformation.
