The Brown family members—husband Kody, wives Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robyn, and their seventeen children—are open polygamists and the stars of the popular TLC reality program Sister Wives.
Christine Brown’s first husband: Meet Kody Brown
David and Kody have met before. David’s on (the ‘One on One’ special). You’ll see what he thinks about Kody,” Christine Brown tells TODAY.com in a sit-down interview. The “Sister Wives” star announced she and Kody Brown were divorcing in November 2021 after 26 years of plural marriage and six children.
Christine and Kody Brown were never legally married. He legally married Meri Brown, his first wife, but divorced her to marry Robyn Brown, his fourth wife, so he could adopt her children from a previous marriage.
Christine Brown says David Woolley was also familiar with Kody Brown from watching “Sister Wives” in earlier seasons. She says last season, which focused more on her decision to leave Kody Brown, was particularly difficult. Through it, she says Woolley would remind her, “You’re not there anymore. That was a while ago. It’s alright.”
