Christine Brown Woolley has officially stepped into a new spotlight, not as Kody Brown’s third wife but as a bestselling author bravely telling her truth. Recently, Christine sat down for her very first interview since releasing her book, and it turned out to be nothing short of jaw-dropping. Hosted by Sarah Fraser—who herself just announced she’s expecting her first child—this interview was filled with laughter, emotion, uncomfortable truths, and plenty of “tea” that Christine didn’t hold back. Fans of Sister Wives who thought they knew everything about Christine’s journey with Kody and the other wives may be stunned at just how much more she revealed.
The Book That Shook the Sister Wives World
Christine’s memoir hit shelves earlier than expected, catching even her off-guard. Almost instantly, it was trending across TikTok, where fans dissected every juicy detail. While viewers anticipated some level of honesty, what shocked them most was just how raw and vulnerable Christine chose to be. She admitted during the interview that she never planned to go that deep. At first, her drafts held back—but by the third version, Christine decided she couldn’t sugarcoat her past.
From recounting her difficult first night with Kody to the humiliating betrayals involving Robyn, Christine left almost nothing unsaid. She even revealed that Robyn sometimes ran back to Kody with private details about her marriage, including their intimate struggles. As Christine explained it, these moments weren’t just embarrassing—they were devastating blows that made her feel voiceless in her own marriage. Still, she pressed forward, determined to tell the whole truth because she knew other women could relate to the pain of being stuck in unfulfilling, one-sided relationships.
Writing What Other Women Couldn’t Say
One of the most striking moments of the interview came when Christine admitted how embarrassed she was recording the audiobook version of her memoir. Reading her most vulnerable experiences out loud left her blushing, but she said it was worth it if even one woman out there felt less alone. She explained that while her life in polygamy was unique, many of her struggles—failed intimacy, lack of a voice in her marriage, losing herself for years—mirror what countless women experience in long-term, unhealthy relationships.
Christine emphasized that sharing her truth was bigger than herself. For her, writing wasn’t just cathartic—it was an act of solidarity with others who have endured similar pain. Her hope was that women stuck in loveless marriages would read her story and find the courage to make changes in their own lives.
“Why Didn’t You Leave Sooner?”
If there’s one question Christine hears more than any other, it’s why she stayed with Kody for so long. The interviewer asked her directly, and Christine gave a candid, heartfelt answer: she didn’t know she could leave until she realized she absolutely had to.
According to Christine, she stayed because she believed it was her calling, her choice, and most importantly, the place where her children needed her. Leaving wasn’t even a thought until she accepted that her needs would never be met in that marriage. Once she understood there was no hope for change, she quietly began planning her exit.
What About the Other Wives?
Naturally, fans are curious about how Janelle, Meri, and Robyn reacted to Christine’s bold book. Did they get advance copies? Did Kody know what was coming? Christine admitted she didn’t send the manuscript to any of them—not even Janelle, though she did give Janelle a heads-up about the topics covered. She reasoned that it wasn’t her job to soften the blow. This was her perspective, her truth, and if the others had different versions of events, they were free to write their own books.
When asked if she’s heard from Kody or Robyn since the book dropped, Christine smirked. She hasn’t, though she assumes they’re furious. “Of course he’s upset,” she shrugged, “but he won’t say it to me directly. I’ll just hear it through the grapevine.” Her message was simple: this is my side of the story—if you don’t like it, write your own.
As for Meri, Christine was clear: that relationship is over. While she wishes Meri well, she no longer allows toxic or unhealthy relationships into her life. Once she cuts ties, they stay cut.
David Steps In
The interview also touched on one of the most awkward scenes fans witnessed on Sister Wives: when Christine’s new husband David met with Kody. Surprisingly, it wasn’t producers forcing that storyline—David himself agreed to it. Christine admitted she wanted nothing to do with Kody, but David insisted they needed to demonstrate to the children that it was possible to coexist peacefully. He even arranged for the group activity—speed track racing—to soften the tension.
Christine praised David for always prioritizing the kids, even when it meant putting his own comfort aside. Still, she teased that upcoming episodes will feature heated moments between Kody and David that left both men furious. According to Christine, fans should brace for “mind-blowing” confrontations.
Is Another Sister Wife Coming?
One of the juiciest topics Christine addressed was the lingering rumor that Kody and Robyn might consider bringing in another wife. Fans were shocked to see hints of this in the season trailer, but Christine dismissed the idea as completely disingenuous. In her words, Kody and Robyn have a soulmate bond, and adding anyone else would destroy it. “Why ruin something so good?” she asked pointedly.
Christine even reflected on what might have been if Kody had just admitted years ago that Robyn was his true partner. If he had been honest and transparent, the entire family dynamic could have been spared years of heartbreak.
Life After Polygamy
Beyond the book and the show’s drama, Christine radiated joy when speaking about her new life with David. Together, they’re raising a blended family, enjoying monogamy, and even planning a second book—this one about navigating second marriages and creating a healthy, loving household after divorce. Christine said she feels freer than ever, finally able to live authentically and surround herself with positivity.
Her relationship with Janelle remains strong, though like sisters, they sometimes clash. Christine laughed as she teased Janelle about having “all the grandkids,” but made it clear they’ll remain in each other’s lives forever. And yes, she and David still joke about trying to find Janelle a new partner.
What Fans Should Take Away
When asked what she most wants readers to gain from her memoir, Christine didn’t hesitate: strength. She hopes her story empowers others to listen to their hearts, take ownership of their happiness, and find the courage to walk away from relationships that no longer serve them. Writing was hard, she admitted, but it was worth it if it helps even one woman realize she deserves more.
And with a playful grin, Christine dropped one final Easter egg: she and David have already started planning their next book. Fans can only imagine what kind of wisdom—and juicy stories—that project will hold.
Final Thoughts
Christine Woolley’s first big interview since releasing her memoir was everything fans hoped for and more. From her candid revelations about intimacy and betrayal to her sharp wit when addressing Kody, Robyn, and Meri, Christine has proven once again why she’s become one of the most beloved figures from Sister Wives.
Her message was loud and clear: she’s not looking back. She’s living her truth, thriving in her marriage with David, and ready to use her platform to inspire others. For fans who’ve followed her journey from heartbreak to happiness, this interview was not only revealing—it was a powerful reminder that Christine is finally writing her own story, on her own terms.
