Christine Brown starred on ‘Sister Wives’ for 16 seasons

TLC viewers first met Brown as part of the polygamist Brown family featured on TLC’s Sister Wives.

The series documented the lives of Kody Brown and his four wives: Christine, Meri, Janelle, and Robyn.

Throughout 16 seasons, the Browns peeled back the curtain of their large family. They exposed the dynamic between the women and their husband. Fans watched as the clan struggled through many challenges, including two moves, the dissolution of Meri and Christine’s unions with Kody, and the ultimate breakdown of their polygamist clan.

In Nov. 2021, Brown announced she had left her husband in an Instagram post. She wrote that after 25 years together, she had made the “difficult” decision to leave. She appeared hopeful she and Kody would be a “strong presence” in each other’s lives as they parented their children. Brown asked for “grace and kindness” as the couple navigated this time within their family.
