Christine Brown’s Explosive Tell-All: Will She Burn Bridges With Janelle and the Browns?

As any Sister Wives fan knows, ever since Christine Brown rocked the Brown family by leaving Kody Brown, she’s been very vocal about her time in plural marriage. She’s also been very open about the new lease on life she found upon leaving. Sister Wives season 19, which just paused for a mid-season break, heavily explored Christine’s new relationship with now-husband David Woolley, whom she met shortly after officially leaving the family. There’s been a lightness to Christine following her divorce, and watching her find new love and plan her life with David has kept viewers engaged all season.

Along with her new lease on life comes a newfound confidence. And despite Christine being on reality TV for nearly 15 years as one of Kody’s multiple wives, now that she’s left polygamy, it seems Christine’s ready to bare all through a new tell-all memoir she revealed on Instagram on Feb. 4.

In her Instagram post announcing the book, Christine said that the book, entitled Sister Wife: A Memoir of Faith, Family, And Finding Freedom, will be a “gritty and honest” take on her life, including her childhood in a polygamist family, her marriage to Kody, and her children. Now that Christine has made it to the other side, she wants to tell her story, in her own words, and shed some light on the things that led to her leaving the family back in November 2021.

Christine Brown from Sister Wives takes a bold financial step with David Woolley as allegations surface about Kody Brown’s financial control.

According to Christine’s Instagram post, the new book will offer a no-holds-barred look at her “heartache with leaving religion and [her] marriage to finally meeting [David Woolley].” The book’s publisher, Simon & Schuster, wrote on their website that the book would be “moving, genuine, and insightful… a uniquely powerful tour de force of Christine’s journey toward and beyond her time in the spotlight as a sister wife.” The pre-order link for the book states that it is scheduled to be released in September 2025.

It won’t be the first book coming from the Brown family. Back in 2012, the family released Becoming Sister Wives: The Story of an Unconventional Marriage, authored by Kody, Meri, Christine, Janelle, and Robyn. At the time of its release, the family was criticized for portraying a rosy look at plural marriage and mainly avoided touching on any pitfalls of the non-traditional lifestyle, like the jealousy that can consume women in a polygamous marriage.

Fans on Reddit claim that the 2012 book opened up some sore subjects for the sister wives, particularly the way Janelle was portrayed, with commenters arguing that Janelle used her sections in the book to do “damage control” after Meri revealed that she was hurt when Kody announced he and Janelle would marry on Meri’s birthday.

Janelle was in damage control when she wrote her section of the book; fearful Meri would spill the tea on Janelle’s behavior, she cataloged everything she could think of that Meri allegedly did to her. Janelle, the strong independent woman, plays the victim.

Still, some defended Janelle:

All this recent Janelle hate is getting pretty sus. They’ve all been terrible to each other, but they were all being triangulated too. Janelle and Meri are both pretty closed off and were 20 somethings sharing a man in a tiny house. … What’s happening now though is that there are three women with their own homes and one who has lost her retirement and savings in exchange for a rental and a sliver of land owned by two master exploiters. The Janelle dragging only benefits Kody and Robyn. … [The] recent trend of Janelle hate is ramping up and it’s weird. I’ve seen a few posts trying to frame Janelle as the worst member of the family.

It remains to be seen what the family’s response to Christine’s upcoming book will be, but as the sole author, Christine will be free to criticize polygamy and offer deep insights from inside a plural family—and perhaps share some juicy family secrets along the way. Because she and Janelle still maintain a strong relationship, even still referring to each other as “sister wives,” it’s likely Kody and Robyn will bear the brunt of Christine’s criticisms in her book.

There’s been no love lost between Christine and Kody, with both openly jabbing at each other through confessionals on the show throughout the season. Kody has cruelly claimed he never actually loved or was attracted to Christine, and Christine accused Kody of picking a favorite wife (Robyn), which led to the demise of the family.

Sister Wives season 19 has introduced a new side to every Brown, especially Christine Brown, who’s embracing her villain era, which is the right path.

Now, with Kody out of her life and freedom from the religion that she was raised in, it’s Christine’s turn to tell her side of the story. Surely some members of the family may be worried about the contents of Christine’s upcoming book, but it’s Christine’s right to be honest about her reality, whether Kody and Robyn like it or not.
