These are the following Christine BrownAnd Kody Brown’s split after 25 years together, she’s found solace in spending time with family.
“Hanging out with these awesome kids tonight! So blessed,” the Sister Wives Star captioned an Instagram photo taken October 2022 with four of Kody, Janelle Brown’s children: Robert, Gabe, Hunter and Savanah.
Kody is a father to 16-year-olds whom he shares with his wives Meri Brown, Robyn BrownJanelle and six with Christine. Robyn is his legally married, but he is spiritually a married man to Meri as well as Janelle. Christine had a spiritual relationship with Kody before they split.
Christine and Kody are parents to six children: Aspyn (born March 1995), Mykelti(born June 1996) and Paedon (born August 1998), Gwendlyn (11/2001), Truely (11/2010) and Ysabel (2/2003).
Christine, who was raised by a polygamist family and fell in love with Kody in her teens, announced her split with Kody in November 2021.
“After more than 25 years together, Kody and I have grown apart and I have made the difficult decision to leave,” the Secret to Self-Care founder wrote via Instagram at the time. “We will continue to be a strong presence in each other’s lives as we parent our beautiful children and support our wonderful family. At this time, we ask for your grace and kindness as we navigate through this stage within our family.”
Since the former couple’s separation, she’s prioritized time with her children — who have seen a different side of her.
“Mom is happier now,” Paedon exclusively told Us Weekly in February 2022. “She is now minutes away from her two oldest daughters. And eventually, in the future, maybe more children will move up there.”
He added at the time: “She’s honestly done with it, and that’s OK. She’s grateful for the [other]Sister wives. I think it’s the same thing for the kids. We’re all grateful for it, she’s grateful for it, but it’s just not for us and just not for her anymore.”
Following her breakup, the reality TV star has relocated back to her native Utah from the Brown’s compound in Arizona.
“I’ve never understood her need to move. I don’t understand it at all unless there’s some guy she wants to date there,” Kody admitted in an October 2022 episode of the TLC series, noting his disappointment that Truely was leaving with his ex. “Or she wants to get away from me so my stink isn’t on her so she can date. I think the fact that I was spread so thin … plural marriage just hasn’t worked for her in many, many years.”
