On the November 6 episode of Sister Wives (season 17, episode 9), Christine invited her former sister wives and her ex-husband Kody to her home to inform them that she was leaving in a week. During her final discussion with Kody, she revealed that several of his children had supported her in divorcing him after seeing her unhappy with Kody in Las Vegas.
Robyn called her out for being a liar and said there was no issue between the couple at the time. Robyn wondered if the couple had been faking it in front of them. Kody’s second wife, Janelle, said in a confessional that there had been issues between the couple for a long time and Robyn was just trying to invalidate Christine's decision, making her look crazy.
Kody also said that he was angry at Christine after seeing her suddenly. Christine said that the couple had been communicating better for the past 6 months, but Kody disagreed. He and Robyn wondered how Christine could tell Truely that she was divorced from him when they had not even been to their church and counseling.
Kody also told viewers that while he and Robyn's kids connect immediately as a family, Christine's children don't come up to him. He has not visited his kids in the past many years and refused to go to his daughter's surgery due to the fear of COVID. Sister Wives fans called out Kody for being a bad father and Robyn for calling Christine a liar.
