SISTER Wives star Christine Brown has moved next to her daughter Aspyn in Utah after splitting from her husband Kody.
Christine, 49, and Kody, 52, announced their split over social media on Tuesday after the former third wife sold her Arizona home and moved to Utah.
The Celeb Report can exclusively reveal Christine and her youngest child Truley, 12, aren’t alone in her native Utah, as her daughter Aspyn, 26, and son-in-law Mitch Thompson are right next door.
Christine’s $1.1million duplex is just a four-minute drive to Aspyn and Mitch’s rental home.
The couple, who married in 2018, live in a three-bedroom, three-bathroom condo.
The home is estimated at $404,700, according to real estate sites.
The abode also features a basement and garage.
CHRISTINE’S BIG MOVE
Christine moved to Utah with her youngest daughter Truley, 11, leaving Kody and sister wives Meri, 50, Janelle, 52, and Robyn, 43, in Arizona.
Christine sold the Arizona home she once shared with Kody for $700,000 in October after threatening to move to Utah amid their martial troubles.
She is now living in a two-story duplex built in 2019 that has two living units attached next to each other as townhouses.
Christine’s portion is 3,490-square feet, and features three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
SAD SPLIT
Christine announced the breakup on Tuesday, as she wrote on Instagram: “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. With love, Christine Brown.”
Shortly after, Kody released a statement of his own that read: “Christine’s decision to leave comes with a great deal of sadness.
“We enjoyed many years together and I have a large amount of respect and admiration for her.
“Although we are moving forward on different paths, we will always remain committed parents.”
Kody and Christine spiritually married in 1994.
She joined his first wife Meri and second wife Janelle, as fourth spouse Robyn entered the family in 2010.
They share children Mykelti, Aspyn, Ysabel, Paedon, Gwendlyn and Truley.
MARITAL ISSUES
On last season’s Sister Wives, Christine expressed her desire to move back to Utah now that polygamy has been decriminalized in their home state.
But when Kody and her sister wives shut down the idea, Christine was brought to tears and admitted she “can’t do marriage with Kody anymore,” as she “doesn’t matter” to him.
On a trailer for the upcoming season of Sister Wives, Christine said of the family moving onto land they purchased to build on: “The best that I can give today is to just pretend. I don’t want to move onto the property, I want to move back to Utah.
“Why would I want to live on the same property with a dysfunctional marriage where right over there he’s got a fully-functioning marriage? Who would ever want to live like that?”
Christine hasn’t been spotted with Kody, as she recently visited Universal Studios with her sister wife Janelle and their kids sans their husband.
Kody and Christine first sparked split speculation last year when he transferred the family home to her a year before she sold the house.
LIFE AFTER KODY
Christine seems to be happy post-split, as she was glowing in a recent Instagram photo.
She captioned the snap: “So many of us have a tendency to fear, change. However, I have chosen to embrace positive changes this year.
“Change can lead to beautiful things, views, and outcomes. I made this change in my health and doing so I gained so much more energy, mental clarity and weight loss.
“Watching & waiting doesn’t move anyone forward but rather creates a delay in results. If I can offer you a piece of wisdom it would be – be open to the thought of change – you never know what you’re missing.”
She added: “Let’s finish this year feeling & looking our very best!”
