Sister Wives star Christine Brown, who is prominently featured in season 19, has undergone a significant transformation in her life. At 52, this devoted mother of six spent years prioritizing the needs of others, often neglecting her own well-being. As Kody Brown’s third wife, Christine struggled to find the emotional connection she desired. Her journey took a dramatic turn when she chose to prioritize her happiness over societal expectations.
In a bold move in 2021, after nearly three decades of marriage, Christine decided to leave her polygamous union with Kody. This decision was a profound leap of faith, one she never anticipated making, yet it has proven to be the most rewarding choice of her life. Christine has embraced a new path, fully committing to her own needs and aspirations without remorse.
Christine No Longer Accepts Scraps from Kody
A Longing for Connection
As the most spirited of Kody’s wives, Christine also wrestled with jealousy, yearning for intimacy in her marriage. Growing up in a polygamous setting, she found herself at odds with her upbringing, particularly as Kody increasingly favored his fourth wife, Robyn Brown, who is 45. After enduring feelings of sidelining for several years, Christine ultimately decided to end her tumultuous marriage.
A Life Reimagined
A Dream Realized
Christine’s courage to leave Kody has been met with personal rewards. Shortly after her departure, she crossed paths with David Woolley, whom she married in October 2023. Their union marks a new chapter defined by monogamy—a stark contrast to her previous life. Christine finally has the relationship she has always yearned for. Together, they enjoy shared interests like motorcycle riding, matching tattoos, and even renovating properties for Airbnb. This shift toward self-fulfillment was her first significant act of prioritizing herself, and she has found it liberating.
Empowering Self-Care
“Taking Care Of Myself Isn’t Selfish”
Christine recently shared on her Instagram a heartfelt message celebrating her decision to prioritize her wellbeing, stating that she is done with apologies for taking care of herself. After dedicating years to Kody and his numerous children, she now firmly believes that “taking care of myself isn’t selfish, and I don’t need to apologize for it.”The Sister Wives season 19 star is experiencing genuine happiness for the first time and credits her newfound joy to her own courageous changes.
