TLC aired Sister Wives season 17 episode 4 on Sunday, December 11, at 10 pm ET. In the episode, the Browns had a family meeting for the first time since Christine left. During the meeting, Kody mentioned how Janelle was acting just like Christine and that his relationship with his kids (with Janelle) was bad just because of Covid.He mentioned how Christine was unhappy for years without telling anyone, so they needed better communication in the family. Meri noted how Kody was ready to work on his relationship with Janelle but was ignoring their poor marital bond. She also felt that there were a lot of parallels between her and Christine's marriage.In a confessional, Meri accused Kody of treating her the same way Christine treated her. Robyn asked people to open up if they did not want to be in the family and Meri said that she was going to be there for several coming years, making everyone silent.Kody felt that Meri was not with him now and was more of his enemy. Sister Wives fans were upset to see him open up about other issues in the family but not telling Meri directly that he did not want to be married to her.Geraldine@CountessGPSSeriously have to laugh at Kody being mad that Janelles boys aren’t talking directly to him about why they’re upset, but Kody won’t directly tell Meri it’s over and to move on #SisterWives2Seriously have to laugh at Kody being mad that Janelles boys aren’t talking directly to him about why they’re upset, but Kody won’t directly tell Meri it’s over and to move on #SisterWivesSister Wives fans want Meri to walk away from KodyMeri is Kody's first wife and they have been married for the past 32 years.After Meri tried to cheat on Kody in 2015 with a man she talked to online (who turned out to be a girl in real life), Kody did not further any marital relations with her.

Janelle revealed that her boys did not want to celebrate Thanksgiving with Kody, so she would celebrate the holiday with him and then have a traditional family Christmas eve with Kody.This hurt him and he told Janelle that her kids had sent Robyn messages accusing her of breaking the family. Later on, Kody told Janelle that he wanted her to be as loyal as Robyn, since she was making many "single lady decisions" like moving into an RV alone.
