Sister Wives: Is Christine Brown Selfish? (How She's Putting Herself First After Kody Split)

   

Sister Wives star Christine Brown has been putting herself first since her split from Kody Brown in November 2021. Christine and Kody had been in a spiritual marriage since 1994 after meeting in a church, making her the third wife to the Browns patriarch. The couple shared six kids and entered the limelight in 2010 when the Sister Wives show premiered. They seemed to be living well until 2021 when the first seismic changes happened in the family after Christine left the plural family.

Sister Wives seasons 17 and 18 presented a fractured family unit in the Brown household, mainly conversations about COVID-19 protocols and the estrangement between Kody and some of his children. Since leaving the plural family, Christine found her soulmate, David Woolley, with their romance playing out for the first time publicly in 2023. The couple first went Instagram official on Valentine's Day 2023. Christine has made sure this time around that she's a priority herself.

Christine Brown Has A New Hobby

Riding RZR

Christine has been having lots of fun and trying new hobbies with her husband, David. The couple has been going on adventurous trips, especially after David introduced her to a new hobby she can't resist. Christine, who is into outdoor activities, is now in a position to do so while riding an RZR. In an Instagram post, Christine introduced her "sexy RZR," which she has been riding for a while now. Christine admitted she had never ridden on an RZR before, giving all the credit to David for introducing her to the activity (via Christine's Instagram).

"I never rode on an RZR before meeting David and now, I'm addicted."

Christine shared the news while adding photos of herself with David exploring cliffs in Moab. She expressed how beautiful the place was, with the duo enjoying their time in these vehicles. It wasn't the first time the Sister Wives star was on an RZR.

Previously, Christine shared a special memory she had with Janelle Brown as the former Sister Wives cast member joined Christine and David for an adventure. Christine's chase for thrill has exploded, leading her to the NASCAR event on the Memorial weekend, an activity she most likely wouldn't have been a part of if she were still living under Kody's wings

Christine Still Uses Kody’s Last Name

Self-Centered Business Move?

Christine is no longer spiritually married to Kody but still uses his last name. She is still part of the Sister Wives franchise, and most people know her as Christine Brown. Changing her name could be a wrong business move when marketing her products, from her AirBnB to the MLM products she markets from time to time.

Nonetheless, while speaking to People, Christine gave reasons why she hasn't legally changed her name from Brown to Woolley. The 52-year-old noted that having her last name as Woolley sounded pretty cool, but she would have to catch her passport details and was in the "middle of traveling." Christine also noted that changing names didn't matter since that's how the public knows her.

"I just like the idea of it since we're just starting new and starting fresh. I really like that idea. But I'm known by Christine Brown, as well, so I'll keep that name too, because I want to honor my whole journey."

Sometimes, people choose to keep their married name after divorce since changing the last name can be tedious, time-consuming, and a long process, while others don't want to change it so that they share the same last name with their kids.

Christine Has Put Her Health First

She Has Slimmed Down

Christine has been on a transformative weight loss journey, posting herself all slimmed down and wearing different outfits for a while now. The mom of six has been looking great and feeling better since leaving her polygamous relationship and has been working on a fitness regime. The Sister Wives cast hasn't shied away from sharing her secret to weight loss, noting that she researched and read about it, focusing on her workout plan and blood type for effective results.

She has been thriving since leaving Kody and her weight-loss journey, looking all toned down and is more incredible than ever. The Sister Wives reality star has mastered revenge posts on her social media. Besides posting pictures of herself looking great, all slimmed down, she has also been posting pictures of David nonstop.

Christine Brown Has Fully Ventured Into Her Business

She Has An AirBnB

Christine and David officially opened an AirBnB in Moab, Utah, showing a "sneak peek" of their rentals on their Instagram page. After showing the first look on their AirBnB, including a picture of Christine and David posing with a stunning sandstone formation in the background. The Sister Wives star seems to have found a legitimate business venture in the perfect location. Moab is known for its beautiful landscape, making it easy to attract visitors from all walks of life.

It is incredible how Christine went from a happy homemaker to an entrepreneur. When the show started, Christine was the third wife to Kody, who stayed at home and took care of the kids. Christine helped raise 13 of the Brown kids before Robyn Brown entered the family in 2010, changing their family dynamics. Just like her former Sister Wives star Meri Brown, who owns Lizzie's Heritage Inn, Christine seems thrilled to share news of her latest undertaking and is always urging her followers to check out their vacation rental in Moab.

What Freedom From Kody Means

More Time To Do What Christine Loves

Life with Kody was heavily restricted, and Christine never got to enjoy some of the best things in life without the patriarch's approval. However, with David, Christine gets a chance to try out new things and visit places she has never been to, and she seems to have an easier life. Christine's leaving made Kody jealous and reflect on his polygamous lifestyle. Before leaving him, Christine expressed she was unhappy with Kody and the way he was going about their relationship, leading her to call it quits.

The Sister Wives reality star has been much happier since leaving Kody. She is a priority in someone's life, unlike in her former relationship, where Kody showed his favoritism towards his fourth wife, Robyn. Christine was able to walk away, which gave Janelle and Meri the confidence to leave the plural marriage, leaving Kody in a monogamous relationship with Robyn.

Perhaps the most frustrating part for Kody is the continuous bond Christine, Janelle, and their kids still share. The two former Sister Wives share updates on their kids on their social media platforms. Being free from Kody means that Christine does what she desires, including going on adventures, playing fun games, getting the love she deserves, and growing her business.
