Sister Wives star Christine Brown revealed her unique plans for Memorial Day weekend, and they show just how different her life has been since divorcing Kody Brown. Christine has changed her life dramatically since ending her relationship with Kody and leaving polygamy. She is embracing her adventurous side with her new husband, David Woolley. As she shared in a playful video on her Instagram, Christine is beside herself with excitement over their upcoming travel plans.
Christine left Kody in 2021. Despite having reservations about re-entering the dating pool, she soon met David, and they were instantly head over heels for one another. Christine and David married in 2023. Since her remarriage, Christine has kept her social media followers updated on her many exciting adventures with David. Christine appears to be happier than ever, and her newest plans with David are an example of the couple’s fun-filled life together.
Christine And David Plan To Spend Memorial Day Weekend At NASCAR
They Will Be Traveling To North Carolina
Christine revealed on Instagram that she and David will be spending Memorial Day weekend at a NASCAR race. They are attending the Coca-Cola 600 in Charlotte. She noted their preparations include bringing “headgear” and “coolers,” and she joked that all they need is a way to meet driver Kyle Larson. In another video, Christine wore a racing shirt as she and David danced playfully. She shared hashtags including "new experiences" and "gosh I love my life." The couple is unmistakably enthusiastic about their upcoming trip.
Christine has joined David in other adventurous activities throughout their relationship. She frequently shares photos of them riding ATVs in Moab, Utah, and they have also traveled to Punta Cana, New York, and Europe. Christine wrote in a 2023 post, “I love having a partner to go on these fun new adventures with.” Christine appears thrilled about her experiences with David. Attending a NASCAR race is a fitting next step for the couple as they enjoy newlywed life and discover new hobbies.
Christine’s Lifestyle Has Changed Since Her Divorce
She Has Embraced Her Adventurous Side
During her marriage to Kody, Christine's lifestyle was much more reserved. She has always been blunt and bubbly, but the Sister Wives family’s conservative views meant she often had to reign in her adventurous side. The logistics of plural marriage also stifled Christine’s outspoken personality; discussions with her sister wives forced Christine to remain quiet to avoid drama. As her marriage to Kody deteriorated, Christine started to show more of her spirited side. She began to go against Kody’s wishes, including traveling during COVID and pursuing scoliosis surgery for their daughter, Ysabel Brown.
Christine distanced herself from her former religion as well.
The Brown family adhered to the teachings of the Apostolic United Brethren, a Mormon branch that encourages polygamy. This resulted in a patriarchal family dynamic where Kody was in charge of his four wives: Christine, Meri Brown, Janelle Brown, and Robyn Brown. The family dynamics limited Christine’s independence. In recent years, Christine confirmed she is no longer part of the religion, nor does she believe in polygamy. Breaking away from a restrictive church allowed Christine to find independence, the courage to stand up to Kody, and a new romance with David.
NASCAR is often associated with rambunctious crowds and heavy drinking. The Browns did not consume alcohol due to their faith, but since leaving her religion behind Christine has been seen drinking. It is hard to imagine Christine having attended a NASCAR race during her marriage to Kody. Her comment about bringing coolers is a nod to the freedom Christine has now to enjoy her time at the racetrack as she pleases.
Christine’s Polygamous Marriage With Kody Did Not Allow Them Quality Time Together
She Values The Time She Has With David
Considering Christine shared Kody with three other women, their quality time together was limited. Kody was stretched thin between four households and eighteen children. Christine and Kody occasionally enjoyed activities such as paintball together during their time on Sister Wives, but Christine never felt prioritized in her marriage.
With Kody missing so much of Christine’s everyday life, the time they intentionally spent together felt forced as the couple grew further apart.
By sharing her weekend plans with David, including a video of the two of them joking around together, Christine proves just how close a bond she has with her new husband. Having a monogamous relationship gives Christine the ability to travel, discover new hobbies, and spend uninterrupted one-on-one time with her spouse. While she can at times appear over-the-top, Christine is giddy with the happiness that comes from being valued and heard in her relationship. This gives her the incentive to explore new activities with David, even one like NASCAR that seems out of character.
During her marriage to Kody, Christine missed out on the self-exploration of young adulthood. She and David are finding new ways to have fun, and her Memorial Day plans prove just how excited she is to have a good time. Christine has evolved so much since the early seasons of Sister Wives, and she has discovered that she can have both freedom and quality time with her husband.
