Fans of Sister Wives just learned that Kody Brown confirmed his split with Christine Brown. The two have had a rocky marriage the last few years, and they've made the decision to call it quits. Fans were not surprised by the news since Christine had already moved back to Utah.
For multiple seasons, Christine has made it clear that she thinks Kody dropped the ball in their marriage. She has also wanted to move back to Utah since polygamy laws were changed. Christine is one of the most popular Sister Wives stars, thanks to her bubbly personality. While fans doubted that Kody's third wife would ever fly the coop, she made the big move over the summer, when it was revealed that her house in Arizona was sold. Kody and Christine married in 1994, just one year after he entered into a spiritual union with Janelle. Christine also believed she would be the last of the wives, but she soon learned that Kody was taking a fourth spouse while she was pregnant. The news made her very unhappy, and now the strain has finally ended their marriage.
Both Kody and Christine took to their Instagrams to confirm that their marriage had come to an end. Even though she was never legally married to Kody, neither wanted to continue their spiritual union. Kody shared that Christine decided to leave the family in a post featuring a simple blue background. He said that her choice has made him feel "sadness." Kody's tone was melancholy as he noted that he had a lot of respect for his former wife, with whom he will co-parent. Now that the split is official, the couple is moving forward on different paths, and fans wonder what the new season will bring. Check out Kody's post below:
His ex Christine's post was a bit longer and noted that their marriage had weathered storms for the last 25 years. Christine cited their ever-growing differences as the reason for leaving the patriarch behind in Arizona. Christine also mentioned being strong parents for their children, while asking her followers to grant them peace and privacy during this difficult time. Christine turned the comments off on her post, but fans flocked to Kody's post to show their support for Christine. Most people feel that Kody let her down.
The new season of Sister Wives is set to start on November 21. Now, more than ever, fans will be tuned in to see what exactly went wrong in their marriage. TLC viewers have often blamed Robyn Brown since she is the favorite, but there were most likely underlying issues that played a part in their union dissolving. Whatever happened, there is sure to be more news coming out of the Brown camp in the coming days and weeks, as the entire family gets used to their new normal.
