“I’m very careful about forcing Kody, because I don’t want him to feel like I’m being demanding or aggressive or anything,” she laments. “I feel like I’ve already made it clear to him where I want the relationship to go, when it comes to just moving on. It’s better to leave the ball with him.”
Kody then explains his true feelings towards his first wife more than 30 years ago, citing that his “three other relationships” take precedence over Meri.
