The friction among Kody Brown and his wives (Meri in particular) seen on Sister Wives, as well as the disagreements among the wives themselves, seems to have been passed on to the next generation.
According to The Sun, Meri’s daughter Mariah and future daughter-in-law Audrey Kriss, recently got into a social media feud with Christine’s son Paedon over politics and at this point, a resolution seems about as likely as Kody’s Polygamist Barbie Dream House ever being built.
After Paedon posted a “Back the Blue” post to Instagram to show his support of the police, things got messy in the comment section, with Paedon even admitted that he and Mariah “can’t stand each other.”
The sibling squabble kicked off when Paedon posted the “back the blue” image on Instagram, along with “#bluelivesmatter.”
This didn’t set well with Mariah and Audrey, who have been vocal in their support of the Black Lives Matter movement following the death of George Floyd, with each sharing that support on social media.
In the comment section of Paedon’s post, a follower suggested that Paedon call Mariah “and have a conversation with her,” to which Paedon revealed their sibling relationship is strained.
“I love Mariah very much but we can’t stand each other,” he said. (The screenshots below were taken before Paedon deleted and turned off the post’s comments.)
He also called Mariah out for being brought up by “a bunch of other white women” and doubting that she will be able to “make a difference.”
At this point, Audrey stepped in to back her fiancé and their beliefs, as well as shade Paedon for allegedly lying about his feelings toward his sister.
“Black lives matter and I cannot BELIEVE some of the things you’ve said here,” she commented. “‘Mariah and I can’t stand each other’ that’s not what you were thinking when you called her crying weeks ago.”
Mariah did share her political stance on her Instagram Story recently, announcing that she’s no longer associating with supporters of President Donald Trump because she feels he has “taken away” her rights as a gay woman.
“I will no longer be associated with people who think that the money in their pockets or the political associations they [have] are more important than my life, than my rights … ,” she wrote on social media recently. “Remember that if you make the choice to vote for Donald Trump, you are making the choice to no longer have me in your [life].”
Mariah isn’t the first member of the Brown family to vocalize her support for the Black Lives Matter movement this year. Last month, Paedon’s mom, Christine, received backlash online for using the movement to sell a LuLaRoe T-shirt.
In an Instagram post, Christine posed while wearing a “perfectly imperfect” T-shirt, commenting on how the “world is crazy right now” and how 2020 “has been SO HARD … from fires to looting to killing to shaming.”

In response to the backlash, Christine apologized; however, her original caption remains on the controversial post.
“Working out is hard,” Christine said in her apology post. “Saying sorry is hard. Admitting you were wrong is hard. Saying #blacklivesmatter isn’t hard!! Let’s say it and LIVE IT! BLACK LIVES MATTER!!”
Currently Paedon and Mariah no longer follow each other on social media, although they are still friends on their personal Facebook pages.

How ironic that this huge loving family cannot respect the opinions of others.
AGREE TO DISAGREE. FAMILY MATTERS
Every life matters it is a shame what happen to George Floyd It made me sick! That could have been my son or any part of your family I hope that police officer gets everything coming to him they are bad people in every race ! We as a whole can change this world but we have to do this TOGETHER first we have to start at the top and get Trump out of office and all his little puppets. And embrace all our brothers and sisters it’s time to stand up !
Mariah, bet you didn’t have any issues cashing the stimulus check. Keep supporting the idiots who tear cities apart and kill people. That is real smart.
You do realize that that the stimulus check was not FROM Trump, and that every developed country gave those checks out during Covid?! The Orange Buffoon simply insisted that his name be put on the check! No other leader did that! People are so naive and ignorant! He doesn’t give a damn about anyone else and will only help the extremely wealthy. Soon you will see grasshopper!
Why does Audrey always have to talk for Mariah? It seems to be a pattern.
When Mariah is having an uncomfortable talk with her mom, she looks at Audrey to take over and Audrey will.
Mariah needs to learn how to have a healthy discussion with other people.
And Peadon too. A bunch of white women?
I don’t expect all the siblings to get along, that would be abnormal but he doesn’t have to broadcast it.
“Remember that if you make the choice to vote for Donald Trump, you are making the choice to no longer have me in your life.”
Ah, yes, threaten to disown your family if they don’t do what you want, that’s very adult of you. I guess she’s not as big on acceptance as she wants others to be.
Ohhh the irony is not lost. What a hypothetical, entitled spoiled brat. Always was.

All lives should matter not just black as there are a lot of different nationality out there
Mariah is so obnoxious. If you are willing to disown your family because they disagree with your political beliefs well… wouldn’t that be just as horrible and judgmental as religious people who disown their children because they are gay? #doublestandard
Uh nope because being gay isn’t a choice, unlike political affiliation. Not to mention, the worst things many Trump supporters condone aren’t political issues — they’re matters of basic human decency so ✌?
Behavior is always a choice. Thoughts and feelings aren’t a choice. Feeling attracted to someone of the same gender isn’t a choice. Deciding to engage in a sexual relationship with someone of the same gender IS a choice. Thinking that restrictions on firearms, allowing abortions and big government are wrong isn’t a choice. Choosing to go vote is a choice. Who you vote for is also choice. Mariah has decided to pursue a life where her thoughts and feelings have led her. She should allow her family members the same freedom to follow their thoughts and feelings as they have allowed her. Trump supporters come from all walks of life and all support him for different reasons. What those reasons are is no one’s business but their own.
They might come from all walks of life, but they are totally ignorant fools.
I do agree that you have to allow people to have their own opinions, but it’s not always easy!
ALL LIVES MATTER, Mariah. Deal with it.
What an awful thing to say Marcy.
To say that Black lives matter is not to say that other lives do not. It is to recognize that all lives do matter, and to acknowledge that African Americans are often targeted unfairly.
