“You Were Starved For Attention”: Kody Brown Reacted To His Ex’s Public Intimacy With New Man
Unlike her strained relationship with Kody, Christine and David share a vibrant, affectionate bond, evident in their public displays of love, from cuddly Instagram posts to playful on-screen moments. Christine describes David as her soulmate, a stark contrast to Kody’s emotional distance. Their chemistry is easy to see during Sister Wives season 19, but Kody may not like watching his ex-wife being affectionate with someone else.
Christine’s Marriage To Kody Was Lacking Intimacy
In the Sister Wives season 19 Tell All special, Christine Brown shared candid insights during her one-on-one with host Suki Krishnan. She revealed the deep lack of intimacy in her 27-year spiritual marriage to Kody Brown.
She emphasized that a loving, intimate connection was essential to her. Christine noted that while their relationship felt fulfilling early on, the intimacy gradually faded. The disconnect led to their 2021 separation.
In a candid reflection, Christine admitted, “We used each other,” describing their sexual relationship as an empty, mechanical act devoid of genuine connection.
Christine often complained about not having enough of Kody’s attention. During the Sister Wives season 19 Tell All, she said that she and Kody rarely talked about intimacy.
She recalls the one conversation where she asked if they were going to have sex in their marriage, to which Kody replied in the negative. “So the next time he came over, I said you’re done.” That was the end of their marriage.
Christine & David Are All Over Each Other
“You Were Desperate For Some Affection”
After parting ways with Kody in 2021, Christine’s romance with David flourished rapidly. In January 2023, Christine shared that she was exploring online dating. By Valentine’s Day, she had announced her exclusive relationship with David, a widower and father of eight.
Their connection grew swiftly, leading to an engagement in April 2023. On October 7, 2023, they exchanged vows in Moab, Utah, surrounded by 330 guests, including Christine’s children. The Sister Wives wedding special aired on TLC.
Christine values David’s communication and presence. Their public displays of affection contrast with Christine’s first marriage, and the Sister Wives season 19 star wouldn’t have it any other way.
“It’s really what Christine always wanted.”
During the Tell All special, Suki played a package with clips of David and Christine’s PDAs from throughout Sister Wives season 19. After watching the clip,
David told Christine, “Well you were starved for attention.” Though the comment embarrassed her, she couldn’t deny that it was true. She always wanted more affection from Kody, and she finally found a man who wanted to make her happy.
How Kody Feels About Seeing Her PDAs With David
“I’m Pretty Impressed By Her Ability To Manifest.”
When it was Kody’s turn with Suki during the Sister Wives season 19 Tell All special, she showed him the same package of PDAs and asked him how he felt about seeing his ex-wife being so openly affectionate with someone new.
Surprisingly, Kody said he was happy for Christine. “It’s really what Christine always wanted,” said Kody. “I’m pretty impressed by her ability to manifest.”
Christine is definitely in a happier place married to David, and Kody is mostly happy for his ex-wife.
“Yeah my mom always wanted more physical affection from dad. And so now she’s gonna have physical affection with publicly as much as she wants.“
David’s rejection of polygamy perfectly complements Christine’s fresh start. While some of her six children initially questioned the swift progression of their relationship, they ultimately embraced the couple’s union.
Christine and David’s mutual dedication to family and deep love strengthen their bond. Their partnership is more affectionate because Christine feels a level of confidence that the Sister Wives season 19 star lacked with Kody.
How Christine’s Children Feel About Her PDAs With David
They Didn’t All Approve Of The Relationship Right Away
While Christine’s children all began to approve of David fairly quickly, they didn’t all appreciate the public displays of affection. David made his premiere during Sister Wives season 19, where he and Christine were often seen kissing, holding hands, and cuddling in public.
Often their own children were around, but David and Christine carried on. During the Tell All, Christine and David’s children were shown reacting to their PDAs.
Ysabel also said: “And so now she’s gonna have physical affection with publicly as much as she wants.” Christine is finally happy with the husband she always wanted, and the Sister Wives star’s children are happy for her.
