FLAGSTAFF, ARIZONA: 'Sisters Wives' Season 18 returns with another dramatic episode as the Brown family is no closer to a resolution in the wake of the Thanksgiving holidays. Kody and Christine Brown's incredibly awkward meet-up continued in the latest episode.
Kody admitted in the confession that he didn't want to be with Christine anymore and accused her of turning his children against him. He admitted, "Christine herself, her face, doesn't bother me. It's what she's doing with our children, talking behind my back about the reason she left."
Meanwhile, Christine, who left Kody in 2021, claimed that she has never tried to turn Kody's children against him. The TLC show star admitted during the confessional interview, "Kody can get mad at me about a lot of things. He can name-call me, that's just fine."
Christine further revealed that when Kody told her that "I am pitting his children against him, no, no, that's not true." Christine confessed, "I am their sounding board. They get to talk to me about things that are hard and I listen."
Christine tried to keep things civil with her ex Kody but he thought that her statement was not genuine. Kody claimed, "I think she's Machiavellian, she plays nice while stabbing me in the back."
Kody Brown suggests 'post-breakup counseling' to Christine Brown
In Episode 2 of 'Sisters Wives' Season 18, Kody Brown suggested “post-breakup counseling” to Christine, and in response, she laughed it off.
Meanwhile, she confessed, "Kody's been bringing up going to counseling and therapy for years."
Christine noted that they are not going to do the post-breakup counseling, adding, "I'm just going to flat-out tell you. He's not going to."
She added, "I'm just super grateful that I'm not married to him anymore. Oh my gosh. It's a lot. He's just so intense."
Further in the episode, Christine thought that Kody was trying to blame her for the downfall of their plural family. However, she accused Kody instead, believing actions were actually responsible for the downfall.
Brown family celebrates their second divided Thanksgiving
