What did Mykeltu do to her eyebrows?

The picture should never have been posted. What's wrong with these  people??

I agree... this same picture was shared on a private news group I frequent as an *example* of the type of poses that parents should NOT post. 👎

That picture in the hands of a creep is a pornographers dream.

I'm sure Mykelti meant no harm but now that she has her own child she really needs to be careful and THINK before she posts.

Bravo Christine!  Maybe she will end up in the Darger family.  She seemed impressed with them when they visited  with them.

Kody being a committed parent to Christine’s children.  Ha!  Since when? 

Never as far as I remember. Early in the Vegas years, Christine installed  wrestling mats in her garage hoping that Kody would then visit his children once a week.    He was already ignoring her and their children then.

I’ve got a cauldron boiling and I’m using all my best witchy voodoo powers to brew up a love potion ❤️ for Christine, I’ll take a muscular, drop dead gorgeous GI JOE doll named “Sam” 😋 place him in a mansion dollhouse with swimming pool, helicopter pad and a couple Bentleys in the driveway, I’ll place a vault in the house stuffed with enough cash💰 💵 to make Scrooge McDuck *drool* and a HUGE diamond ring 💍💎 ….. then I’ll toss in a few lifetime passes to all Disney properties. 🤩

I certainly wish Christine a better partner and brighter future. I have a healthy dislike for Joe Darger, but  I must give the guy at least some credits as he seems to be doing a better job with holding his family together. 

But.... Kody at least opted for 4 different wives, with only Meri and Janelle having some sort of family connection (though not by blood). Joe Darger on the other hand... come on! marrying two cousins on the same day? And then marry the identical twin sister of one of your wives?? Boy that's creepy....

[TurtlePower]

I realize this is old news and we knew this already, but why did Kody pick on Christine only? If Kody says he was turned off by her weight and eating habits, he must be endlessly nauseated by Meri and Janelle—they’re both obese:

Christine dropped a huge weight by ditching Kody, I hope she’s healthier and happier than she’s ever been.

Because Kody is an evil manipulative asshat and he never wanted Christine in the first place, he only wanted the status she brought him by marrying her - she was plyg royalty and it gave him his pretend planet status.  I think at the heart of it, Christine gave Kody's ego a massive boost - here was this woman who would do anything to garner a few scraps of his attention, and he knew he could do or say basically anything to her and it would just make her grovel at his feet even more.  If he had gone after Janelle for her weight, she'd just withdraw and it wouldn't be fun for Kody to go to her house anymore (in rewatching older episodes, it's crystal clear that Kody would hide at Janelle's house when he wanted to be left alone).  If he went after Meri, she would whine and cry and hound him to talk about his rill fillings for her, and Kody doesn't like fillings.  With Christine, he could punish her and she would silently sulk back to her house, internalize everything he told her was wrong with their relationship, and then come back as the happy, bubbly wife to try and appease him.  He never loved her, IMO, he just needed her to legitimize his standing as a plyg man in a community that seems to have been on the fence about his real motives.

[Sasha888]

Christine pretty much shamelessly chased Kody - she admits as much in their book. He was already a married man, and in addition he and Meri were at the time pursuing a relationship with a potential second wife who did not pan out. His interests were clearly elsewhere.

When that fell through, Kody was still not interested in Christine and decided to pursue Janelle.

While I am not absolving Kody of his massive responsibility in this whole mess, I've always felt Christine has her share of the blame as well. I've heard her brag on the show about how "connected" she was in their church. Christine's father was an important man in this church, and Kody was a newbie - he got strong-armed into marrying a girl he didn't really want. 

Christine didn't mind using her influence to get this new cute guy in their group for herself, and she didn't really care that Kody was obviously not into it, as long as she got what she wanted.

I'm not saying Kody's not heavily at fault here as well, but so is she. She stubbornly pursued him no matter how many times he tried to weasel away from her.

I'm glad she's getting away from this mess, and she absolutely did not deserve years of emotional abuse. There's no excuse for Kody's behavior, but Christine had a hand in making her own problems.

You can drag a man kicking and screaming down the aisle, but you can't make him love you.

We’re all quick to point to others as the cause of our pain or misery. It’s the easy way out.  But, in most cases, we did have a part in what happened. Maybe not always a huge part, but a part nonetheless. Acknowledging this is difficult.

According to Zillow, Christine bought her house in 2018 for $520,000. She sold it last month for $700,000.

That may only work if his name is on Truely’s birth certificate.  Remember the scam is to not have dad’s name there. Ergo, she will have no legal recourse, unless there was an official adoption.

Would be a good special ep, but not a continuing saga.  Her grown kids will do a better job of taking care of her than she has been in years.

An article in the US Sun says that Christine's new home is a 4-minute drive from Aspyn's.  It included a few photos of the homes, so I am not including the link.

A DNA test may be ordered if a presumptive father isn't listed on a birth certificate. 

But I do not see this being an issue with Truely, Kody has publicly acknowledged all of his children, if Christine pursues child support, the bigger issue is that Kody has minimal income and assets to collect from. Christine cannot collect air, and Kody should not be off the hook.

We can vote on a new thread title for Christine.

When they got married and for many years after Meri was typical/slim. Janelle has always been heavy, but Janelle probably wasn’t insecure about it the same way Christine was so picking at her about it wasn’t going to get the same response. 
 

Christine seems to be the most sensitive and emotionally vulnerable of the three (which is a good and bad thing). 
 

As someone who was a fat kid and is a fat adult, how someone reacts to bullying really has a lot to do with how bullies act (I am not victim blaming here, being a bully is wrong). If you call a fat kid fat and they say “okay, and?” the bullies will likely leave them alone. If you call a normal weight kid fat and they cry, the bullies will keep coming back. 
 

I think Christine desperately wanted Kody’s approval and praise- he knew that and withheld it as he saw fit. He knew she was sensitive about her weight.

Truely was born in a hospital, it was filmed and Kody was present, clearly acknowledging this baby. So I highly doubt he is not named in the hospital files as a father, making it also likely that he is on the birth certificate.

Minimal income and assets is very likely but if Christine decided to really push through, Kody could be forced to sell what limited assets he has. The question is; is she willing to take things to court and turn it into a lengthy and ugly battle? I doubt it. I think she's going to try to make it work with just Truely. I am only hoping she decided to make a stand and kept all the money she earned from her house.

Reminds me of Winston Churchill's response to Lady Astor when she accused him of being drunk.  His response went along the lines of...yes, I may be drunk but tomorrow I will be sober and you my dear will still be ugly.

So, we have one guy with two failed marriages: One is still around pretending to be a wife and the other has left and made it public…
Why the difference?
We all thought Meri stayed and pretended to be a wife because of the money. Did they try this with Christine who eventually said to F… off and jumped of the money wagon? Or did Christine have a real place to go to (and money from her house!) whereas Meri has hardly anything left (her own fault) and clings on because she has no place to go to and not enough money?

I think that Janelles kids are pushing her to leave as well, the boys were totally over him even last season, but she will never leave, she will be that barnacle that just clings on for dear life, waiting for a scrap here and there, which I find sad because I know she loves him and he loves her probably like a sister.

Totally agree. Janelle has her head firmly planted in the sand and she intends to stay that way. I think she and Kody do have a relationship, of sorts, but they way you described it as sibling-like is right on the money. Her pretending that she has a "husband" is pathetic at this point. 

But her boys?? Yeah, you hit the nail right on the head there. I especially want to know what Hunter says to his mother about this. He has shown himself to pretty much pull no punches with all this baloney. If they want to show me a tv show worth watching, let's see some discussions like that, because I'm pretty sure the word "dickhead" was involved!

Janelle's sons have had Kody's number for quite some time.  I wonder how much discussion they've had among themselves over the years.  Beginning with Logan they've moved on from the family almost as quickly as possible after high school.

Yep...and yet even with all of her brothers feeling that way, Maddie totally does NOT have Kody's number.

Imagine being so foolish that you ask a ridiculous jackass like him to officiate your wedding...

I wouldn't have even let him walk me down the aisle. I'd have asked Logan or Hunter if I were her! Maddie is a lost cause.

[Absolom]

I wonder if Maddie's attitude has changed any over the last two years.

[Mahamid Frauded Me]

Not sure about Maddie, because you know she gifted the clan with the first grandchild and all, didn't Kody go to NC for Eviebobeevie's birth, yet Mykelti who is a car ride away was not graced with his presence at the birth of Avalon by Tonoyta nor has even met her face to face ( I am going by what people are saying that he has never seen her in person)

Yeah, the older boys seem to have used Kootie as an example of what not to do. Logan & Hunter see higher education as their path to a career and Gabe seems to have the brains for that too. I worry that his "harmones" might get the better of him before he finishes his education. Garrison has construction & carpentry skills and completed the renovation of his RV - has Kootie ever finished anything he's started on schedule? I'm hoping Savanah takes after her smarter brothers.

 I must give Kody some credit here, because he’s absolutely brilliant in setting a bad example and conveying the message please don’t follow my lead to his kids. Most of the older kids seem to have gotten that message.

Well, it’s one way to teach your kids important life lessons: Show them what not to do…. (Obviously me being sarcastic)

I think Meri isn't ever going to leave officially because then Kody wins. I think it is just that simple.

With Christine I think her daughters are her support network and the last two just left. Now with only Truely left she is seeing what lies ahead of her without her children around her. And I am glad to hear she is homeschooling.  I can't imagine what attention would have been put on Truely if the Browns life would filter down to her in public school.

As long as Christine stayed on course with the curriculum provided by the school board, I saw no other option when they were living in Flagstaff, where polygamy is not widely practiced.  Now that they are back in Utah, the lifestyle is not that uncommon, however, Truely could be centered out by school mates simply because of the family dynamics exposed on TV.

So Meri stays to avoid letting Kody “win”? At this point, with both of them miserable, it would be a win for both of them if she were to follow Christine’s example and go as well (I think she won’t because deep down she’s a fraidey cat who doesn’t want the risk and also because thinks she’s the main draw for the show).

Yep, once again Meri the Martyr has put aside her own aspirations for a better life for herself to save the show for the sake of her family.  Very similar to how she covered the family when the catfish was making threats (about what I can't imagine) and she just went along declaring her love of catfish to rescue the others.

Agreed with your whole post but I loved this part especially, and how you put it...yes, Meri is the star, in her own mind, and at one point, I do believe they were in trouble of not getting renewed and Meri's catfish drama saved them, but she isn't the main draw anymore and she needs to wake up.

I, and I think a lot of other people, are sick and tired of watching Meri rehash the same shit year after year. I have walls! Kody isn't being nice to me! Hey did you know I was catfished? Would you like to meet some other ladies that were also victims, but really my reason for this is so I can relive my time with fake Sam and his hot banana? 🤮

Meri's a hot mess but that's only interesting for a little while. She's just the same old hot mess she was years ago, she can't grow as a person, and her relationship with Kody can't be a storyline either because that's going nowhere, he's done with her. You can only talk about how done your relationship is for so long.

Christine's problems are the big new thing, and not only that but she actually did something about her problems! Way more interesting. So now, Meri has even been replaced as the "out wife".

I don't see how Meri can even spin "Christine's leaving affected me this way..." into a storyline for herself...we all know she spends almost no time with the family. Christine's leaving really doesn't affect Meri's daily life much at all.

Meri saved the show at one point with her horrifying life decisions, but she's got nothing going on currently. This is all about Christine now.

Normally I'd have said a round of botox would clear that right up, but that is a great picture of her. I think those lines really work for her. She looks great.

Edit: Not that it matters what I think--she's allowed to do with her face what she likes. All I'm saying is losing 200 pounds of ramen noodles really works for her.

I agree with you, but I'm not sure Meri does since she knows Kootie wants to be rid of her, but she seems to want to keep the only man she's ever had despite how badly he treats her, including public humiliation.
