Sister Wives star Meri Brown dazzled her fans, as the first thing you notice after a six-week absence from her live-streaming show is a trimmer TLC celebrity. It’s easy to see, and even Jenn Sullivan, Meri’s best friend, commented on the smaller version of her buddy today.

Sister Wives: Meri Brown Shares Reason for Her Six-Week Hiatus

Meri Brown appeared after six weeks of Friday night darkness. The Sister Wives celeb, along with her best friend, Jenn Sullivan, stopped showing up on Friday evenings without giving their fans any notice. This left their faithful followers of their Friday with Friends show concerned about their sudden disappearance.

Many Sister Wives fans love clicking in to see these two together as they live-stream their venue. After only a few minutes of watching these ladies interact, their laughter becomes contagious. So, this week, the ladies returned and shared the reason behind their six-week hiatus from their Friday with Friends online show.

Fans learned Jenn Sullivan had a partial hysterectomy, where her uterus was removed, but not her ovaries. But because she needed to keep from opening up the surgical wound, they needed to keep laughter at a minimum during her recuperation period. So, that left doing their Friday show out of the question.

During their time off, Meri said she talked to her buddy in the most mundane way she knew how. That’s because what you see on their show is how they interact behind the scenes… they laugh a lot.

Meri Handled Jenn’s Recuperation Very Quietly – For a Reason

When Jenn and Meri get together, they laugh. So, since Jenn had surgery, she couldn’t afford a belly laugh while healing. It would likely hurt. But now the two Sister Wives celebrities are back, and they bring their laughter back to the screen.

Once they finished discussing Jenn’s surgical procedure, they moved on to Meri Brown, who is smaller today. So, her best buddy gave her a thumbs up, and the fans watching on Friday night agreed.

Sister Wives: How Much Weight Gone – Unknown

During the Friday Night with Friends Venue this weekend, Meri sat in one place, as she always does. But, the weight loss is easily seen in her face and arms.

So for comparison, the three screenshots below show Meri through the years at a pretty consistent weight. Then below that trio is another set of screenshots from Friday. So, you can see the difference.

At one point on Friday’s show, she stood up to move the chairs around, and you could see she’d dropped weight. In the screenshots below, you can see what Sister Wives fans saw on Friday. These images add evidence to Meri Brown’s reported weight loss.

So, this Sister Wives celeb is back on her Friday with Friends show. Hopefully, Meri Brown and Jenn Sullivan stay consistent and pop up on Friday nights.

With Sister Wives Season 19 rolling out any time now, fans scurry to get updates on the Brown family ahead of the new season of the TLC show.
