Christine Brown met up with Janelle Brown, Robyn Brown, Kody Brown and a few of their children to say goodbye earlier than transferring to Utah on the Nov. 20 episode of Sister Wives. Meri Brown was out of city and didn’t attend the ultimate assembly. The goodbye was organized by Christine’s daughter, Mykelti Brown, who thought her mother would remorse it if she didn’t formally say goodbye to everybody earlier than transferring on.
Unfortunately, the meet up was fairly awkward. Christine had beforehand made it clear that she was going to distance herself from the folks within the household who she didn’t have shut relationships with (Kody, Robyn and Meri), so issues have been tense between her and Kody/Robyn. “It’s very apparent how awkward we all are,” she admitted. “Janelle and her kids are on one side and Robyn and Koby are on the other. None of us want to be here.”
Meanwhile, Kody was nonetheless harboring excessive anger and resentment towards Christine for divorcing him and leaving with their daughter, Truely. “This is such an awkward moment,” Kody shared. “There is such a strike to all my feelings and all the work I’ve done for our family. it’s way off the charts for me. It feels so demeaning. Bless Mykelti’s heart, she wanted to affirm that the family’s still a family, but I’m in sort of this weird place where I’m thinking I don’t want to see Christine ever again. I don’t want to think about her. I don’t want to drive past her house ever again and mourn this. I don’t want to sit and be in this place again. I don’t want to deal with this at all.”
For months, Kody had made it clear to Christine that he didn’t assume she ought to pack up and transfer. But, now that she’d formally discovered a spot in Utah, the inevitable was taking place. “I feel like my life has been unraveled for me,” he admitted.
Despite the awkwardness, Mykelti gave a speech to thank everybody for coming. “It’s bittersweet but it’s nice that we can be here to gather on mom’s last night,” she mentioned. “I think this is one of the hardest things this family has to go through, but I think it’s awesome we can all be here to show that we are still a family. There’s no one to blame for any of this. It is what it is and we should be grateful that even through it we can remain a family.”
Christine mentioned her goodbyes and admitted that one of many hardest elements for her was seeing how upset Robyn’s children have been that she was leaving. She broke down in tears and was comforted by Janelle and Mykelti. “I wouldn’t have asked for this,” Christine reveled. “I didn’t ask for having them all come over. It was important for Mykelti and for everyone to see Truely, but I certainly didn’t need it. It’s worse than I thought it would’ve been. I think that was the worst goodbye I’ve ever witnessed.”
