Pretty much every adult in the Brown family of Sister Wives is going through a difficult time in their marriage. Although Janelle seems the most content, she’s dealing with the fact that her husband Kody has a terrible relationship with her sons Garrison and Gabe. Meri isn’t really in Kody’s life anymore despite the fact that she still claims to be spiritually married to him. Christine has left Kody and is moving to a different state. She’s also named Robyn as the most loved, and “favorite” wife. But, Robyn doesn’t seem happy with Kody either.

The Sister Wives Season 17 Premiere was almost entirely comprised of a conversation between Kody Brown and Christine Brown as they discussed their failing relationship after 27 years of marriage. A lot is revealed in what is said between the estranged spouses, but there is even more to unpack from the scenes if you read between the Browns. Keep reading for details on 15 of the books on Christine’s bookshelf, which seem to paint a clear portrait of a woman who has put A LOT of time and effort into learning how to value herself: her emotions, her feelings, her desires, and her happiness.

During Christine and Kody’s intense sit-down conversation about the end of their over 25-year marriage Christine brought up that their problems had been going on since they lived in Lehi, Utah 12 years ago. At the time they were filming season 1 of Sister Wives and Christine was pregnant with her daughter Truely. Kody remembers things differently.

Chrstine Brown reveals during the Sister Wives Season 17 Premiere that her and Kody’s marriage started going south when she was pregnant with Truely and working a night job. Wait, what?! Christine had a job while the family was filming for Season 1 in Utah? Keep reading to find out what that job was!

In August of 2020, Christine Brown informed her then-husband Kody that their 17-year-old daughter Ysabel Brown would be getting much-needed spine surgery for her severe scoliosis in September. They would have to travel to New Jersey to get the surgery, which made Kody ask that the surgery be delayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

There are many reasons why Sister Wives‘ Christine decided to leave Kody after a quarter century of marriage. The most important reason was he broke their daughter Ysabel’s heart by not being there for her spinal surgery. Towards the very end, though, another one of Christine’s final straws was the fact she thought Kody never wanted to be intimate with her again. He sees things a little differently but at the same time also agrees that he doesn’t want to be intimate with her.

Christine Brown is not only out of the marriage with Kody Brown, she’s also no longer owns land on the still undeveloped Coyote Pass property. Headlines have been reporting that Christine sold her share of the land to Kody and Robyn for only $10. That may not be the full story, though.

Before Kody and Robyn Brown were spiritually married, they kept a secret from the other wives that deeply hurt his other wives.
