Meri adds how much it “saddens” her to hear Kody say she should move up there, as if she purchased the Inn to “get away” from him and the family. “I was here at the very beginning — I helped start this family. It was me and him. We had plans and he loved me,” she says.

Finally weighing in on the situation, Kody explains that he suggested Meri move into the inn because “as a family, it doesn’t feel like we interact that much.”

“I’m not even trying to push her away,” he continues. “She’s laying this burden that she has at my feet about what to do with Lizzie’s Heritage Inn now that her mom’s passed and I’m like, here’s a solution for you.”

In a conversation with PEOPLE in March 2021, Meri revealed that she was working on her relationship with Kody. “I think that all relationships, you know, have issues that they have to work through. And I think that’s just kind of where we’re at right now. For me personally, I’m not one that’s going to give up,” she said.

While Meri and Kody’s current relationship status remains up in the air, fans were quick to assume she left Kody in September after she posted a photo onInstagramwith the caption, “There’s so much more to the story….#Ready.”
