‘Sister Wives’ Christine & Kody Brown’s Custody Case Takes Drastic Turn
Sister Wives stars, Christine Brown Woolley and Kody Brown’s custody case has taken a drastic turn. The exes had to meet in court over custody, paternity, and child support regarding their daughter, Truely. Yet, it did not turn out the way anyone expected it to. Keep reading for further details.
Christine & Kody Brown’s Custody Case Takes Drastic Turn
When Christine Brown Woolley shared she was moving to Utah, Kody Brown tried to sway her. She was taking their youngest child, Truely so he did all he could to keep her from leaving. Though he was not a very active parent, he also liked control. Since he and Christine were never legally married, he told her that the state could take their daughter away. He used scare tactics to keep Christine close but it did not work. It was clear that Truely never felt comfortable with her father or at the home he shared with Robyn.
There was an outsider vibe whenever she was dropped off but then Christine began dating David Woolley. Truely felt welcomed by him and that was evident by her playful nature. At the same time, Christine finally decided to sue Kody for back child support. His name was not on Truely’s birth certificate due to them being polygamists. Therefore, she got a paternity test and they had a court date set. They just had to face off in court and it should have been cut and dry but with Kody, it is anything but.

He and Robyn were spotted in Utah though they were not required to be there. According to The Ashley’s Reality Roundup, the hearing was held via web conference. They will now attend mediation on May 21st, 2025 but the case has now been classified as a Track 1 and Track 3. A Track 1 case is “standard” whereas the latter is for those with a “significant custody dispute.” This means there is likely an immense amount of conflict or requires more negotiation/consideration.

Sister Wives fans are very conflicted by this whole situation. They have seen Kody Brown neglect his children so to want more custody of Truely was very confusing. Furthermore, the feeling was Kody only wanted more custody so he did not have to pay up to Christine:
- I wonder how often he has had Truley at his and Robyn’s home since she moved to Utah with her mother, and if he has been consistently paying child support. I presume he has not been, or there would have been no need for the court case. And Truley may now be old enough to choose whether or not she wants to spend time with her father at his home.
- So many thoughts. If Kody ever wanted “significant custody,” it would’ve been obvious based on the time he spends with her which was none/not much. He’s only fighting for custody because he doesn’t want to pay Christine. He’s only fighting for custody so he doesn’t look like an a**hole. The fact that he is wanting custody while being estranged from 2/3 of his children is beyond rich.
Are you shocked that this was not a cut-and-dry situation and that Kody seems to be dragging it out? Finally, do you think he will lose in the end? Let us know and watch Sister Wives Sundays on TLC.

Kody is lower than a snakes belly n as poisonous as one. He only has five kids that matter to him. That’s why he doesn’t want to pay support for Truely because that will take away from his special kids 🤢. Bet he never supported Savannah either. I honestly don’t think that it’s right that Christine has to wait for so long on court. He better get prepared to pay out some serious money. What a low life pimple popping puddle of puke
