So, with aunt Wendy Nelson in the spotlight, a lot recently, I was wondering what will happen to her when her husband the prophet dies? Will she be relegated down to the quorum of widows?
The epiphany I had is she will wait for the wife of another apostle to die, step in and marry the apostle. Then she will be in line for another summit attempt to prophetess.
What say ye?

Ew.

Or maybe lobby for priesthood for the wimmin? I think she’d rather be prophet than be married to another one.

She'll probably be ignored like the rest of the apostles wives.

Left with all of her future expenses paid for.
Left with access to church vacation properties.
Left with stories to tell her posterity.
Left with a soft warm spot among the faithful.

Eventually flushed down the memory hole.

Unless they start naming temples after people. Then we could possibly have the Wendy Watson Nelson Temple in Zimbabwe?

She has no agility when it comes to descriptive adjectives for her current husband.

The last thing you want to say about a religious leader is that "it's as if he's been unleashed."

Really? "Unleashed"? Only bad things happen when something gets off it's leash. People are chased and bitten. People get killed. Cities get bombed. Wars are started. Leashes keep dangerous things in check.

And speaking of that....who was hindering him before he was unleashed? Other stupid presidents and apostles who didn't have the great vision he has???

I think we're dealing with someone who has quite an ego and was really hankering to be the top big dude. He now lives in his own little kingdom where no one dares to molest or make afraid. "The name of the church is a top priority because I say it is and I get whisperings."

This is going to be interesting....

Remember Red Ryder's conspiracy theory about Aunt Wendy and Sherri Dew being in a relationship and Wendy married Rusty so she could implant "revelations" in his sleep about women getting the priesthood and then eventually Wendy and Sherri take over the church? I'm really hoping that's true. Because that would be really funny!

So I vote this is what happens: Rusty gives women the Priesthood and says that the prophet's wife takes over when he prophet dies. Aunt Wendy becomes prophet and says gays are great and Oaks head literally explodes. Then President Wendy Nelson marries Sherri Dew in the SLC temple and it this really big awesome celebration and their wedding anniversary is an official church holiday.

Well... Aunt Wendy doesn't actually have any of her own (genetic) posterity, and rumor is that her hubby's kids don't really like her, so there's that...

Conspiracy theory or not, there's not doubt at all in my mind that GOMI-Wendy is influencing cRusty and his "revelations".

I don't have any "likes" at all to give Wendy, but I've gotta admit that she would likely do a better job as CEO than those octogenarian bigots that are waiting for cRusty to die so they can be "unleashed."

I had to go dig that one out of my conspiracy theory file just to remember.

A bit of a thread jack - but...I wonder what Nelson would be like were his first wife, Dantzel, still with us.

Just an interesting counterfactual - she seemed to be a somewhat moderating influence back in the day.

That's a really good question. Just how much of an influence on Rusty does Aunt Wendy vs Dantzel?

I would feel much more sorry for a 90 year old Dantzel having to get out of bed each time Rusty has a "revelation" than I do for Aunt Wendy.
