What happened in Sister Wives season 19 episode 12?

In the latest episode of Sister Wives, Meri visited some monuments in England including Buckingham Palace. She revealed that after the clarity of separation, she just wanted to roam around the world as if the world were her oyster.

After coming back to America, she confided in her best friend, Jenn, about her recent decision to leave Flagstaff and move on from her ex-husband, Kody. Meri expressed her confusion over Kody's emotional response to their breakup, as he had initiated their separation.

Meri revealed to Jenn that Kody's tears had caught her off guard, leaving her wondering if she had made a mistake. Despite her doubts, Meri affirmed that she was at peace with her decision to end their marriage.

Jenn shared her own insights on Sister Wives, having witnessed Kody's behavior over the years. She noted that Kody's favoritism towards his fourth wife, Robyn, had been apparent even during their time in Las Vegas.

Meri and Jenn discussed how Kody's apology for his past behavior had come too late. Meri also mentioned that their recent anniversary would have been their 33rd year together.

In a confessional, Jenn reflected on the factors that contributed to the breakdown of Kody's relationships with his wives. She cited the family's move to Flagstaff and the COVID-19 pandemic as significant factors that drove them apart.

"I don't think it's any one thing that broke up the family. Things changed. Things changed so much for them. Flagstaff really divided the family, I think because physically they were farther away," stated Jenn.

Kody expressed his desire to be involved in his daughter Savanah's life but felt hindered by the animosity towards his wife Robyn from his other family members. Kody believed that Janelle, Savanah's mother, and the rest of the family were jealous of Robyn and conspiring against her.

However, Janelle disputed Kody's claims, stating that his absence from family gatherings was not due to Robyn's presence, but rather his own alienation from their children. Janelle stated that Kody was unwanted by most of his kids and that his attendance at events was not dependent on whether Robyn accompanied him or not.

Kody Brown, along with his wives Robyn and Meri, gathered to discuss the future of their jointly owned property in Coyote Pass on Sister Wives. The conversation centered around the logistics of dividing the land equally among the four owners, including Janelle.

Kody explained that he had spoken with Janelle about appraising the property to determine its value before dividing it. Meri suggested that an appraisal would provide a fair and accurate assessment of the land's worth, rather than relying on assumptions.

Robyn expressed her reluctance to sell the property, revealing her desire to build a home in Coyote Pass. She hoped that Meri and Janelle would also build homes on their respective lots, envisioning a future where they could all spend time together on the property.

Kody, in his own confessional, admitted that the topic of the property was a source of pain for him. He expressed reluctance to invest more time and money into the property, including getting an appraisal or consulting with lawyers.

Meri inquired about Janelle's plans for the property, and Kody revealed that Janelle had suggested selling the property together. Kody expressed his own interest in building on the property but acknowledged having mixed emotions about it.
