Many fans of Sister Wives have speculated about a possible split between Kody and Christine Brown. In November 2021, Christine confirmed the rumors that the pair were breaking up. While their marriage was not legally binding, they spent 25 years together as a spiritually-married couple. 

Christine did not feel satisfied with her marriage anymore — which was something viewers had suspected for a while. Fans of the show saw her and Kody attempt therapy to improve things. Ultimately, though, Christine’s desire to move to Utah while everyone else disagreed led to her leaving. Christine announced her decision on Instagram. 

“After more than 25 years together, Kody and I have grown apart, and I have made the difficult decision to leave,” Christine wrote in her post. “We will continue to be a strong presence in each other’s lives as we parent our beautiful children and support our wonderful family.” 

Around the time of Christine’s announcement, Kody appeared to have gifted her one of his properties. He signed over the deed to an Arizona home that he and she purchased in 2018. The value of the house is roughly $500,000 currently. 

Christine seems to be doing well with her family

While the decision to leave was difficult, Christine did not let it stop her from enjoying the holidays. In fact, her Instagram account is full of happy moments. According to The U.S. Sun, she shared a picture of her decorated Christmas tree with her followers. 

“YESSS!! It’s snowing outside and the tree is decorated and Dean Martin is crooning on the record player. Yep a record player! I get to really embrace the holidays this morning! #snow #christmas #christmastree #blessed #simplethings,” Christine wrote in the description. 

Other posts on Christine’s profile page include photos of her smiling with her kids and grandkids. Fans of the show reacted positively to the images the star has shared. They see how cheerful Christine is and find her outlook to be inspirational.  

If anyone has had doubts, Christine has assured people that she has been doing well. She also shared how the split allowed her to gain some “mental clarity.” Her willingness to endure change keeps followers hopeful for future happy experiences.
