Annemarie’s Take

I think watching Meri, Janelle, and Christine melt those rings was one of the most symbolic moments we’ve seen on Sister Wives.

After everything these women went through with Kody, it must have felt wonderful to finally put that chapter behind them together.

I especially enjoyed seeing Meri step outside her comfort zone with speed dating. She’s spent so much of her life following someone else’s rules, and now she’s figuring out what makes her happy.

And Janelle’s comments about family really touched me. Despite all the divorces and disagreements, she still considers them a family, and I think that says a lot about her.

After everything the women have experienced while rebuilding their lives, it’s nice to see them moving forward.

As earlier Sister Wives revelations about their marriages made clear, leaving Kody was only the beginning of their journeys.
