Kody Brown & Company Had No Idea Christine Was Miserable?

When Sister Wives star Christine Brown announced her divorce in November 2021, fans weren’t really surprised. In fact, fans of the TLC reality show have little hope that the Brown family is truly happy together. Despite this, the announcement did appear to surprise Kody Brown and the other three wives. Is the Brown family so out of touch that they can’t see the reality of their polygamous marriage?

Wives Tell-All shocks Kody Brown family

During the Sister Wives Tell-All, Meri Brown seemed shocked that Christine had chosen to end her marriage. Meanwhile, Meri, who is Kody Brown’s first wife, has been estranged from him for several years. Despite that, Meri chose to stay with the family. However, her own choice may have reflected in the way she viewed Christine’s unhappiness. In fact, despite making her feelings known, Meri was surprised when Christine decided to move away from the Brown family.

Meanwhile, according to Sister Wives fans, Meri should have been the least shocked in the whole Brown family. Fans will remember in the Season 15 finale of the TLC reality show, Meri seemed to bully Christine into staying, telling her she doesn’t get to “give up.”

Other wives and Christine Brown

As for Kody’s second wife, Janelle Brown, she and Christine seem to be the closest family members. Fans will remember Season 16, where Janelle praised Christine for her commitment to help raise her children. However, on the Tell-All, fans were shocked by Janelle’s reaction to the news. In fact, she said she had no idea Christine was unhappy. She even effectively blamed her for the breakdown of her marriage.

Many fans and family members believe Robyn Brown, Kody’s fourth, legal wife, seems to be his true love. However, Robyn does insist she signed up for the plural marriage. In fact, she was distraught over Christine’s decision to leave the family. According to Robyn, she had no idea Christine was unhappy while refusing to blame Kody. She seems to truly believe that Christine didn’t even try to make her marriage to Kody work.

Fans react to the Sister Wives stars’ surprise

The video included here reveals Christine sharing her decision to leave Kody Brown. It also reveals the emotional toll this is having on her sister wives in Part 2 of the Season 16 Tell-All. Christine also revealed why the relationship reached its breaking point.

Fan reactions in the comments reveal their support for Christine Brown. One wrote, “Would totally watch a show about Christine finding her new life, and being the amazing woman that she is.” Another fan supports Christine by commenting on how strong she is. They wrote that they are proud of her for leaving the “whole toxic situation and the toxic ex-husband.”

Yet another fan wrote, “Robyn cries but never any actual tears.” Meanwhile, another commenter noted that Kody doesn’t use the “d word,” but that he does coerce, punish and emotionally manipulate these women. In fact, he then expects the sister wives to stay and take whatever leftovers he has to offer. The fan said how insane it is that they are shocked when Christine finally said she won’t take this and deserves better. Meanwhile, they added, “she absolutely deserves better. They all do.”
