Sister Wives’ Christine Brown Reveals Why She “Felt Trapped” & “Scared” Amid Pushover Behavior & Signs David Woolley Might Leave Her Someday

Sister Wives star Christine Brown Woolley shared an emotional Instagram Reel in which she opened up about feeling "trapped" and "incredibly scared" when she left her marriage to Kody Brown, and revealed if she's actually happy now. Christine was the first of Kody's wives to take the leap and leave him, and Janelle Brown and Meri Brown soon followed, leaving Kody married to Robyn Brown in a monogamous marriage. Christine's new life after Kody has been filled with love since she married David Woolley in 2023, though her critics keep speculating about the state of their relationship.

Sister Wives' Christine Brown opened up about feeling trapped and "so incredibly scared" during a painful period in her life.

Christine's social media post featured a montage of clips of herself looking sad before she left, and photos of her today, smiling and happy. The words, "I felt trapped and so incredibly scared to step into the unknown," were written on the video, followed by a message of hope: "But I did it. And I'm so happy. And I only bring this up again for you." The song "'Til You Can" by Cody Johnson played over the video montage.

Christine elaborated on the message in the video's caption, writing, "Is it time to choose you? Stepping out on my own was the scariest thing I've ever done, but also the best. You know what my realization was? I am the only one in charge of my life. If I want it to change, then I am the only one to create it."

Christine has been open about how leaving her marriage to Kody changed her life, since it enabled her to leave Arizona and meet the love of her life, David. The two have had a whirlwind romance that culminated in a wedding, as shown in Sister Wives season 19. Her bravery also inspired fellow sister wives Janelle and Meri to also leave the marriage and pursue their own lives, which fractured the Brown family but gave the other women hope for happiness and new beginnings.

It's reasonable that Christine felt trapped in her marriage to Kody and scared to chart off on her own. She had been married to Kody since 1994, and had acted as a functioning member of the plural family since then. As the third wife in a large plural family, Christine was too busy raising children and running the household to focus on herself and her own happiness.

Now she is living the life of her dreams with David, and it shows: Christine recently showed off her 40-pound weight loss. Despite some criticism that David is a pushover who lets Christine run the show, it goes without saying that Christine is happier in this marriage than she was with Kody. In many ways, Christine being somewhat "selfish" and putting herself first when she left Kody paid off, as she is now able to live her life on her own terms, including embracing some of the things, like tattoos, that her lifestyle previously frowned upon.
