'Sister Wives' Star Christine Brown Engaged 5 Months After Split From Kody Brown
Christine Brown will soon be walking down the aisle! Five months after she announced her split from Kody Brown, the Sister Wives star is engaged to boyfriend David Woolley. Brown confirmed the news to PEOPLE Thursday, revealing that Woolley dropped to one knee and popped the question in Utah earlier this month.
"David treats me like a queen and tells me I'm beautiful every day. I've never been in love like this before and the world seems like a brighter place with him in it," Brown told the outlet. "I'm so excited for the wonderful adventure we are going to embark on for the rest of our lives."
Brown, who did not share further details about the proposal and has not yet shared the news on social media, first went public with her relationship with Woolley on Valentine's Day. In a sweet Instagram post officially introducing her now-fiancé, whom she sweetly referred to as her "soulmate," Brown wrote, "I finally found the love of my life, David. The first time he held me close, it felt like my soul took it's (sic) first breath." She added, "He's wonderful and kind, incredible with my children and an adorable grandpa. I never dreamed I could find a love like this." The official introduction came after the TLC star revealed she was "dating someone exclusively" earlier that month.
Brown's engagement comes on the heels of her relationship with Kody. After more than 25 years together, the Sister Wives star announced the end of her spiritual marriage to Kody in November 2021, sharing, "After more than 25 years together, Kody and I have grown apart and I have made the difficult decision to leave. We will continue to be a strong presence in each other's lives as we parent our beautiful children and support our wonderful family. At this time, we ask for your grace and kindness as we navigate through this stage within our family." Their split was chronicled in season 17 of Sister Wives and was contentious after Brown decided to leave the family and relocate with their daughter, Truely, to Utah.
Brown and Kody share six children – son Paedon, 24, and daughters Aspyn, 27, Mykelti, 26, Gwendlyn, 20, Ysabel, 19, and Truely, 12. Since their separation, Kody's breakups with his first wife Meri Brown and his second wife Janelle Brown were also confirmed. Kody is currently married to only his fourth wife, Robyn Brown.
