Dannielle Merrifield experienced some major marital changes in Seeking Sister Wife, and ever since her husband attempted to add another wife to their relationship, fans have been anxious to know what happened to Dannielle. The Merrifield family made the bold decision to try out polygamy after over a decade of living a monogamous lifestyle, and Dannielle received plenty of sympathy for going along with her husband's pursuit of his second wife, Roberta. From the status of her marriage with Garrick Merrifield to defending the Snowdens' controversial actions, here's what happened to Dannielle Merrifield after season 3.

Dannielle and Garrick might have only had one season on Seeking Sister Wife, but during their brief quest for another spouse, fans formed strong opinions about the duo of reality stars. Although they had been married for about a dozen years and had two children together, Garrick wasn't completely satisfied with his life with Dannielle. Garrick shared that he was inspired by the polygamists mentioned in the bible to welcome another spouse to his marriage with Dannielle. Although it made Dannielle uncomfortable, she obediently followed Garrick to Mexico to meet their prospective sister wife, Roberta. The Merrifields ended their run in Seeking Sister Wife on uncertain terms, prompting fans to wonder what happened to Dannielle Merrifield after season 3.

In Seeking Sister Wife season 3, Dannielle demonstrated that she felt betrayed by Garrick during their trip to Mexico. Garrick had sex with Roberta before telling Dannielle and, as their journey in Seeking Sister Wife continued, it become more apparent that Garrick was more interested in Roberta than he was his original wife. Fans had called for Dannielle to leave Garrick, but the pair ended season 3 united. In the months since Seeking Sister Wife season 3 wrapped, however, it seems like Dannielle has parted ways with her unpopular spouse. Since the conclusion of their reality television careers, Garrick and Dannielle have subtly conveyed that they are no longer an item. Specifically, the pair have cleansed each other from their social media accounts. Where Garrick's posted pictures of himself with Roberta, Dannielle has documented her life as a mother without Garrick in the picture.

Ever since sharing a promotional photo of herself with Garrick and Roberta for Seeking Sister Wife season 3 in April, Dannielle has upheld a strict "no-Garrick" policy on her Instagram. Although neither party has confirmed their current relationship status, Dannielle's posts heavily imply that she's no longer with Garrick. From sharing that she's moved into a new home to asserting that 2021 "brought many changes" in an Instagram post, Dannielle gave fans just enough information to infer that her monogamous marriage couldn't handle the transition into a polygamous union. Dannielle also garnered attention when she stuck up for her fellow Seeking Sister Wife cast members, Dimitri and Ashley Snowden. In response to the Snowdens being accused of domestic abuse, Dannielle asked her followers to try to see Dimitri and Ashley's perspectives. This made some fans less sympathetic to everything that's happened to Dannielle Merrifield after season 3.

Dannielle struggled to keep her marriage alive in Seeking Sister Wife season 3, and unfortunately, her relationship with Garrick Merrifield seems to have buckled under the weight of Garrick's polygamous ambitions. From living without Garrick to sticking up for controversial co-stars, Dannielle has found her own footing since season 3. Hopefully, fans that were eager for the reality star to leave Garrick are proud of everything that's happened to Dannielle Merrifield after Seeking Sister Wife season 3.
