The cracks in Sister Wives are no longer a secret. In her latest revelations, Christine Brown candidly admits that the Brown family no longer functions as a true family. This isn’t due to a lack of effort, but because too much hurt has accumulated in silence over the years.
The scariest thing isn’t the arguments themselves, but the fact that many members have stopped trying to mend the relationship.
When silence replaces dialogue
Christine said that the conversations that once formed the foundation of their bond have now almost disappeared. Family gatherings have become awkward, heavy, and filled with emotional voids. Instead of trying to understand each other, each person chooses to protect themselves with distance.
According to Christine, that was the most dangerous moment: when no one believed that speaking out would change anything.

The consequences extend to future generations.
These rifts not only affect the wives, but also extend directly to the children. Many of them grew up in a stressful environment where adult conflicts seemed endless.
Christine couldn’t hide her sadness as she admitted that it is now the children who have to make big decisions just to find peace, something that the family should be providing.
Kody Brown and his irredeemable role.
While not directly criticizing, Christine implied that Kody Brown’s handling of the conflict contributed to the family’s current state. When power, emotions, and fairness are no longer evenly distributed, rifts become inevitable.
And once trust is lost, mending it is almost impossible.
What is left of the Brown family?

The biggest question for fans right now is no longer who is right or wrong, but: does the Brown family actually exist, or is it just a memory captured on television?
Christine admits she doesn’t know what the future holds. But one thing is certain: what was once built on ideals and beliefs is now crumbling irreversibly.
