Seeking Sister Wife: Fans Brand Dannielle Merrifield the “Ghislaine Maxwell” of Polygamy Following Shocking Behind-the-Scenes Abuse Scandal
When Dannielle Merrifield first appeared on Seeking Sister Wife, viewers felt sympathy. They saw that she was desperate to keep her husband, Garrick Merrifield, happy by taking on multiple wives. Yet, that was not something she was interested in, but she went along with it regardless. Now, fast forward a handful of years, and Dannielle is just as bad as Garrick, if not worse.
This has led some to believe that she is the new Ghislaine Maxwell. Keep reading for more details on what else they are saying and why.
Dannielle Merrifield Grooming Women?
Seeking Sister Wife star Garrick Merrifield claimed that God called him to have multiple wives. That was not how his wife, Dannielle, felt, but she agreed, and they found potential women in Brazil. Two did not pan out until they met Lorrana. Garrick met her, proposed, baptized her, and she moved to Buena Vista, Colorado, to pursue a life with them. She married Garrick at the courthouse and soon became pregnant. However, her dreams came crashing down after she had her daughter, Sarah, as Garrick was arrested for domestic abuse against Lorrana.

She tried to make it work, or make it seem like it was working, but a terrifying video was made of Lorrana in fear. Dannielle could be seen berating her in the background. From there, Lorrana has been planning her escape while Dannielle stands by her man. She just posted a video lip-syncing to a song she claims “oozes the Holy Spirit,” with Proverbs flashing over her. There were flames with a lion and some poor dance moves. This came on the heels of Lorrana posting a story threatening to spill the tea on Garrick if he did not communicate and work with her.
After what Lorrana is going through and how Dannielle is freely preaching, followers were stunned. They immediately commented and felt the Seeking Sister Wife star was grooming these women for her selfish needs. However, she was then shoving them to the side when they were no longer needed or when they knew too much. Essentially, she had become Ghislaine Maxwell.
Dannielle Is Ghislaine
After the grooming comments came in, Seeking Sister Wife fans immediately compared Dannielle Merrifield to one person. They felt she was very much like Ghislaine Maxwell, who worked alongside Jeffrey Epstein. Ghislaine is currently serving a twenty-year sentence, which Dannielle would likely never get. However, the grooming aspect makes sense as Dannielle cozies up to these women, makes them feel like family, and then is not there when push comes to shove:
- Religious psychosis is a strange thing to witness. She gives off Ghislaine Maxwell vibes too.
- Danielle is the Ghislaine Maxwell of the operation. She helps to groom these women into thinking this is a safe and happy arrangement.
- I believe Lorena
stop taking advantage of marginalized women. Turn down the music and maybe God will give you the right message for once.
There are some who have said she is a victim and an abuser, which is completely valid. Hopefully, if there is another season of Seeking Sister Wife, the Merrifields will stay far away. Do you believe Dannielle grooms these ladies? Let us know your thoughts in the comments below.
