Christine’s Marriage To Kody Was Lacking Intimacy
“We Used Each Other”
In theSister Wivesseason 19 Tell Allspecial, Christine Brown shared candid insights during her one-on-one with host Suki Krishnan. She revealedthe deep lack of intimacy in her 27-year spiritual marriageto Kody Brown.
She emphasized that a loving, intimate connection was essential to her. Christine noted that while their relationship felt fulfilling early on, the intimacy gradually faded. The disconnect led to their 2021 separation.
DuringSister WivesSeason 19, Christine revealed that observing Kody’s deep affection for his fourth wife, Robyn, Christine recognized a profound void in her own relationship with him. She felt Kody failed to meet her emotional needs, causing their intimacy to feel strained and inauthentic.
In a candid reflection, Christine admitted, “We used each other,”describing their sexual relationship as an empty, mechanical act devoid of genuine connection.
Christine often complained about not having enough of Kody’s attention. During theSister Wivesseason 19 Tell All, she said thatshe and Kody rarely talked about intimacy.
She recalls the one conversation where she asked if they were going to have sex in their marriage, to which Kody replied in the negative. “So the next time he came over, I said you’re done.” That was the end of their marriage.
Christine & David Are All Over Each Other
“You Were Desperate For Some Affection”
After parting ways with Kody in 2021,Christine’s romance with David flourishedrapidly. In January 2023, Christine shared that she was exploring online dating. By Valentine’s Day, she had announced her exclusive relationship with David, a widower and father of eight.
Their connection grew swiftly, leading to an engagement in April 2023. On Jun 09, 2025, they exchanged vows in Moab, Utah, surrounded by 330 guests, including Christine’s children. TheSister Wiveswedding specialaired on TLC.
Christine and David’s relationshipcouldn’t be more different from her first marriage. The couple form a dynamic team, their partnership rooted in mutual respect and shared values. David seamlessly integrated into Christine’s life, bonding with her children and grandchildren.
Christine values David’s communication and presence. Their public displays of affection contrast with Christine’s first marriage, and theSister Wivesseason 19 star wouldn’t have it any other way.
“It’s really what Christine always wanted.”
During the Tell All special, Suki played a package with clips of David and Christine’s PDAs from throughoutSister Wivesseason 19. After watching the clip,
David told Christine, “Well you were starved for attention.” Though the comment embarrassed her, she couldn’t deny that it was true. Shealways wanted more affectionfrom Kody, and she finally found a man who wanted to make her happy.
How Kody Feels About Seeing Her PDAs With David
“I’m Pretty Impressed By Her Ability To Manifest.”
When it was Kody’s turn with Suki during theSister Wivesseason 19 Tell All special, she showed him the same package of PDAs and asked himhow he felt about seeing his ex-wife being so openly affectionatewith someone new.
Surprisingly, Kody said he was happy for Christine. “It’s really what Christine always wanted,” said Kody. “I’m pretty impressed by her ability to manifest.”
Kody went on to talk about his relationship with his former third wife. “Christine was a good time experience,” theSister Wives season 19cast memberand former polygamist patriarch told Suki: “When it came down to the nuts and bolts of the real relationship, the two of us both struggled.”
Christine is definitely in a happier place married to David, andKody is mostly happy for his ex-wife.
“Yeah my mom always wanted more physical affection from dad.And so now she’s gonna have physical affection with publicly as much as she wants.”
David’s rejection of polygamy perfectly complements Christine’s fresh start. Whilesome of her six children initially questioned the swift progressionof their relationship, they ultimately embraced the couple’s union.
Christine and David’s mutual dedication to family and deep love strengthen their bond. Their partnership is more affectionate because Christine feels a level of confidence that theSister Wivesseason 19 star lacked with Kody.
How Christine’s Children Feel About Her PDAs With David
They Didn’t All Approve Of The Relationship Right Away
While Christine’s children all began to approve of David fairly quickly, they didn’t all appreciate the public displays of affection. David made his premiere duringSister Wivesseason 19, wherehe and Christine were often seen kissing, holding hands, and cuddling in public.
Often their own children were around, butDavid and Christine carried on. During the Tell All, Christine and David’s children were shown reacting to their PDAs.
Though it’s likely uncomfortable seeing their mother kiss a man who isn’t their father, Christine’s kids seem to bemostly understanding about the PDAs. “Yeah my mom always wanted more physical affection from dad,” says 22-year-old Ysabel Brown.
Ysabel also said: “And so now she’s gonna have physical affection with publicly as much as she wants.” Christine is finally happy with the husband she always wanted, and theSister Wivesstar’s children are happy for her.
