‘Sister Wives’: Christine Finds Kody Brown’s Phone Calls Awkward

Sister Wives star Christine Brown adjusts to life without Kody Brown but it can be a little rough around the edges. She gave some advice to a fan about marriage and the fallout from her split. Then, she pulled from her own experiences to show it’s not always easy dealing with an ex.

Sister Wives: Amicable Split for Christine Brown?

Last year, Christine Brown walked away from Kody Brown and her Sister Wives clan. Fans recently learned that her marriage started to crumble about five years ago.

Then about a week or so ago, her son Paedon Brown painted the picture of what Christine endured. He also pointed out the reasons behind his mom’s decision to walk away.

When Christine Brown announced the split to her fanbase, she did so on social media. She said it was time for her to make her exit. She also made sure people knew she and Kody Brown remained on friendly terms. That’s because they shared six kids.

While she made it sound easy at first — it doesn’t sound like it’s always that easy. Now, the former third of the Sister Wives seemed so genuine when talking about Kody.

Kody Brown Topic Handled with Care

One of the things Christine Brown mentioned was her attempt to navigate this spit from Kody. But at the same time, she tries to keep her kids in mind.

During a divorce, you might share things with family and friends. But you can still keep a handle on what your kids hear. They don’t need to hear the details about intimacy issues.

But Christine is a reality star on a show that includes sharing her daily life. It’s all centered on how the five Sister Wives adults handle life together.

She found it hard to keep a balance on what she shared on the show about her divorce. That’s because it gets back to her kids as she talks about it in this public venue.

Christine conveyed to her kids that while Kody has a love for her, he isn’t in love with her. This ended the couple’s marriage. And it played out with TLC cameras rolling.

Sister Wives: Christine & Kody’s Divorce Pulled Back the Curtain

Kody told Christine Brown that he didn’t want intimacy with her anymore. After this, it seemed the Sister Wives’ family finally opened the curtains. This is when they exposed the real inner workings of the Brown family.

It was no longer a secret. They let fans know where Kody stood with his marriages. As Christine said, Kody is in love with another wife. But she didn’t need to stick around and watch as it plays out.

So, she opted out of building a house that overlooks the only functional marriage he has. Fans surmised all along that Kody and Robyn were living like a monogamous couple.

Now it’s finally confirmed. But Christine spent decades loving this man and trying to be a wife to him under the umbrella of polygamy. Then it all changed.

It’s a Tough Call to Make?

Christine recently shared that she needs to talk to Kody every week or so. That’s because of the kids they share. While she didn’t say what constituted making a phone call to him, she did say it was “awkward”.

So the Sister Wives mom of six addressed the end of her marriage with the fans. But she never got around to sharing how she felt about it. Or at least how she really felt about it.

It looks like she’s enjoying her freedom. And from all accounts she is. But in a comment to a fan, she revealed she still finds it hard to talk to Kody Brown. Fans love Christine and everyone is rooting for her to build a new life for herself.

She offers so much as a partner in a relationship. But she hasn’t given up. Then, she told another fan that she is searching for that fairytale love story. She’s also made it clear that polygamy is no longer her cup of tea.

So, Christine looks like the superwoman of newly divorced wives. But she does have some residual effects she’s working through. Starting with those awkward phone calls between her and Kody Brown.

It’s not that these calls are distasteful. But she only finds herself struggling with what to say. She left because the marriage wasn’t fair to her. But it doesn’t mean she stopped loving the guy. So maybe there’s a little of that left too.
