Life in the Brown family has never been simple. Over the years, viewers have seen marriages unravel, loyalties shift, and children carve their own paths far away from their father, Kody Brown. Christine has worked hard to rebuild her happiness with her new husband, David Woolley. She’s been thriving as an independent woman, focusing on her children and her new chapter outside the plural marriage.
But while Christine has often shown strength, fans know she wears her heart on her sleeve when it comes to her kids. As her adult children build lives of their own, she has had to navigate the bittersweet reality of letting them go. In the latest episode, viewers will see Christine’s emotions reach a breaking point when one of her daughters makes a life-changing decision that leaves her mother feeling heartbroken.
Sister Wives: Mykelti’s Bond With Kody & Robyn Falls Apart
Christine Brown Woolley revealed in her memoir that Kody and Robyn cut off contact with Mykelti, despite her once being one of Robyn’s strongest allies. The fallout stunned fans, as Mykelti often defended Robyn when others wouldn’t. But cracks have been visible for years. In 2024, Mykelti called out her dad for dodging accountability.
She added that saying even a simple apology could mend fences. Instead, Kody’s blame-shifting deepened the divide. Christine hopes time may heal, but without accountability or honest effort, reconciliation seems unlikely. Mykelti’s estrangement highlights just how fractured the Brown family has become since Christine left polygamy.
Sister Wives: Christine Struggles With Daughter, Mykelti’s Cross-Country Move!
In a new episode of Sister Wives, Christine Brown tears up as she helps daughter Mykelti pack for a big move. Mykelti, along with her husband Tony and their three young children, is relocating from Utah to North Carolina. Christine will no longer be just a drive away from watching her grandchildren grow up. This loss hit her hard. She admits through tears that the reality of saying goodbye has left her devastated.
For Mykelti, the decision isn’t just about distance. She explains that her mom is upset because she’ll miss those early childhood years with her grandkids. Christine values deeply about emotions. The separation feels even heavier knowing that Aspyn and Ysabel, Mykelti’s sisters, don’t have kids yet. Mykelti wants her children to grow up around cousins, which is one reason she’s excited to be closer to Janelle’s daughter Maddie, who already has a bustling household in North Carolina.
The move also gives Tony a chance to pursue his passion for chess. He explains in the episode that Charlotte is a hub for the game. It offers him more opportunities to coach, create content, and compete. Christine playfully teases her daughter for being the “wife of the century” while supporting his career. But she knows the shift is important for their future. Mykelti shares that she asked her father to visit before the move, but he never made the effort.
Christine reflects that the situation has been sad, especially since her daughter had hoped for a closer bond with him. Kody offers excuses about conflicting schedules, but the missed goodbye only underscores the ongoing strain between him and many of his older children. For Christine, watching her daughter leave without that closure makes the goodbye even harder. Stay tuned to TV Season & Spoilers for further updates.
