Sister Wives

[Living42Day]

Christine unfortunately seems like the type of person who cannot stand on her own two feet, she needs a man which is why she stayed with Kody so long while supposedly being a victim and "basement wife" her whole life and now rushed into dating and getting engaged to this guy. If it was just her, I would say whatever...do what you want with your own life because the consequences only impact you. But she has to think about Truely, and bringing a new man into her life so quickly is usually not great.


I think next season is going to focused on Christine and how she got a new man and her dating adventures and how that impacts her former family. If that's the case I'm not going to continue watching.

Anyone think this is a slight at Kody with the nacho comment? I hope the best for them, but it makes me raise my eyebrow. It seens this must be intentional which then makes me feel she really hasn't moved on.

I also just have to say the whole "my queen, my king" stuff is just .

The Queen/King stuff is eyeroll worthy. But I give her a lot of leeway with the nacho thing. It was a really vile comment from Kody. I can understand her having trouble letting it go.

apparently they bought a house together BEFORE announcing their engagement. she is so naive.

Oh absolutely, Kody is disgusting, but I guess I just wish she could move on to where he has no effect on her (other than when it comes to their kids.) And she can truly let it go as it's a Kody issue and reflects nothing and had nothing to do with her.

It's definitely a slight at Kody and I think it's awesome! I feel like she's definitely moved on from Kody. It took a lot of courage for her to leave not only him, but the extended family. I think that shows strength. The healing process isn't going to be immediate. She will be remembering and processing the painful moments for years to come.

While I agree she’s really naive I’ve read this guy is worth more than all of them put together. He’s not marrying her for her money. (Which to my understanding isn’t a whole lot)

 

[TheIncredibles!]

I agree with everybody's opinions here both sides... LOL. What I really want though is to see KRody's reactions to all of this happiness without them. .

Is he though? I heard that initially but also saw that he declared bankruptcy at one point.

You and me both!

Filing bankruptcy doesn’t mean you’re broke. There are lots of nauseatingly wealthy people who have filed bankruptcy who still remain wealthy. A lot of times it’s a business decision. I have no idea if he has or not but on paper he’s worth $1-2 million while she is worth $400,000. (which seems insane to me, all those years with a TLC contract and that’s all you have to show for it?) If he’s running a con I imagine there are far better pickings financially.

If she were my friend, my concern would be that she jumped all in with the first guy to take an interest rather than discover who she is on her own. The Queen/King stuff throws majors red flags. People who feel they have to prove they’re in love typically don’t feel secure in their relationships. At least in my experience. The culture she comes from is to be married and prosper. I don’t think she knows any other way. But who am I to judge? I’ve been with my DH from literally the day I met him 34 years ago.

I disagree. She lived her life as a single parent, she mentally left and worked through her divorce a while ago. There is no timeline for moving forward and on with your life.

^^This, totally.

I'd like to know what Aspyn and Maddie think. They've both always struck me as being so level-headed. Aspen lives near Christine and would probably have been involved in the new relationship as it's gone along. Maddie's quite a bit farther off but the distance might give her some objectivity.

I'm definitely not implying he's running a con. We have no indication that's the case.

I get that wealthy people file for bankruptcy. But the filing does raise an eyebrow. It certainly doesn't mean he's definitely wealthy.

The house seems very nice, but pretty basic. Not the sort of thing a wealthy guy (with construction contacts) and someone on TV would buy.

I agree with this. While it might seem like she’s jumping in quickly to viewers, she’s been “single” for a very long time in her mind. How many more failed relationships, random dinner dates or “hookups” with other people would be the “right” number for fans before she finds the right one? If she thinks he’s “the one” then why can’t people just be happy for them?

I was 22 when I met my future husband. I knew on our first date that he was “the one.” We’ve been married for 23 years. My own parents met when they were 15. Dated only each other for the next 6 years and got married. They’ve been married for 49 years.

It almost seems like people feel cheated out of watching Christine “play the field.” I for one, hope it works out beautifully for them. She’s waited long enough to feel appreciated and valued in a relationship.

I’m pretty sure we are all hoping it works out beautifully for them, even those of us who are nervous she might have rushed things a bit.

i just read that christine did NOT sell the $1 million home she currently owns-she is retaining it as a rental, which she moved out of in late february/early march and has had to drop the rental price on once already. i would think after what she went through with kody and the arguments over the home equity (arizona) she would have waited until she married before entering into another mortgage with another person.

speaking of mortgages-i recall that she 'sold' her part of the coyote pass property to kody for $10 but i wonder if she's still on the loan paperwork (aka-'the hook' if kody/robyn flake on payments). i had a co-worker who ended up in a world of hurt when she did a similar 'sale' of her interest in a property but did'nt follow up to make sure the ex refinanced it. 10 or so years later, after she and the man she subsequently married had bought a home, built up savings...she is served paperwork b/c the ex ended up filing for bankruptcy and since she's on the mortgage-she ended up losing everything she had and filing her own bankruptcy. with as many crazy financing methods that kody and company did to get those vegas homes, the properties, the arizona homes....i can't imagine christine's name isn't still lurking on some obligatory paperwork.

 

[Living42Day]

I'm also surprised they didn't wait to purchase the home until they were married. But also who knows - they could already even be married (via courthouse wedding? saving the ceremony to be filmed on camera). She's been a little inconsistent on the timeline of things.

I wish Christine all the happiness in the world! I have known couples who only knew each other a few months when they married and have been together for decades.
I just saw a commercial that a new season will start in August. I’m surprised since there is only one sister wife left!

 

[Living42Day]

I'm not watching this season, and I think I'm done with the series. It seems like it's turned into even more of an utter crap show. I especially liked when Janelle grabbed Kody's arm in an attempt to prevent him from leaving her after she told him to f off in the previews. Double standard, much? If he would have done that to her that would have been considered dv.

I thought I heard something on TV that it's coming back "soon". Did they really say that, or did I hear wrong?
