Kody Brown’s ex-wife apology tour hit a snag on Sunday’s episode of Sister Wives, with the “father” of 18’s latest efforts to make amends coming across as “weird” to his former spouse Christine.  

As fans of ‘Sister Wives’ know, Kody revealed to his only remaining wife Robyn earlier this season that he planned to meet up with each of ex-wives to apologize for his actions following their respective splits. Kody kicked off his ex-wife apology tour by meeting up with Janelle in North Carolina and on Sunday’s episode, he prepared to deliver his second in-person apology, this time to Christine, who was the first to exit the Browns’ plural marriage in 2021. 

Prior to meeting up with Christine, Kody– who said he invited Christine’s husband David Woolley to join them out of “respect”– told viewers he wasn’t expecting the conversation with Christine “to be easy necessarily,” nor was he hoping to receive the “same kind of tenderness and grace” from her as he did from Janelle.

“I think the last time we talked about our relationship may very well have been when she told me she’s done and she wants to move,” Kody recalled during the episode. “I mean, I didn’t react really positively to any of that.” 

While Kody recognized that he was “walking into an environment where trust has been killed,” upon sitting down with Christine (and David), he was quick to apologize for their breakup, particularly for “how it all went down.” 

“I want to apologize for being angry about it,” Kody continued. “I want to apologize for the struggles … I want you to be able to heal.”  

In response, Christine assured Kody that it was all “in the past.” 

“Apologies are nice, but I’m saying it’s OK,” she added. 

In true Kody fashion, he then took some credit for Christine’s current state of wedded bliss, pointing out that if he hadn’t “messed it up” between himself and Christine, she wouldn’t have found happiness with David, whom she married in 2023.

He then went on to tell Christine (as he told Janelle) that he regretted saying after his trio of divorces that he “didn’t love” any his ex-wives, insisting that his words had come from a place of anger. 

“I was angry and that wasn’t cool,” Kody said. 

Despite previously taking issue with Kody’s claim of never loving her (or Janelle or Meri), Christine revealed on Sunday’s episode that she found it “weird” for Kody to bring up his past feelings for her in the presence of her current husband. 

“Again, you just got to let that go,” she told viewers of Kody’s remarks. “Look, I remember what it was like, but I’ve got a new husband here now and it’s weird, right? It’s weird, man. That’s a weird thing to say.

“I have a husband right here now, you know, [for Kody] to [say], ‘I used to love you,’” she continued. “I can’t imagine what’s going through David’s head right now. … That doesn’t affect me, that’s you.” 

While viewers will have to wait until next week’s episode to see the conclusion of Kody’s apology to Christine, in a preview of Sunday’s episode, Christine continues to note how “weird” Kody’s remarks are coming across, before David weighs in on the topic.  

“You know damn well you loved her because you wouldn’t have gotten married, you wouldn’t have had all these kids, if you didn’t love her,” David says of Kody. 

Meanwhile, back at the face-to-face, Kody acknowledges to Christine and David that there is “so much water under the bridge,” before reminding them that he’s there to apologize. 

“Start with your kids,” David replies, referring to the many children from whom Kody is estranged.
