Sister WivesChristine Brown isn't giving up on love.

More than a year after her split from Kody Brown, she revealed on Instagram that she's dating again. So how's it going so far?

"Holy. Hell. Awkward," she wrote in a Jan. 29 post. "Dating online is crazy! Any advice for dating at 50! #datingadvice #datingtips #dating #feelinggood #exciting #newbeginnings #awkward."

In November 2021, Christine announced that she and Kody, 54, had broken up after more than two decades together, saying on Instagram they'd "grown apart" and that she'd "made the difficult decision to leave."

Fans watched their relationship unravel on the TLC series, including during the season 17 premiere where Kody told Christine that he wasn't attracted to her and hadn't been when they wed in 1994. Christine reflected on that moment during the Sister Wives: One on One special in December, stating that it was when she knew their marriage was over.

Sister Wives Star Christine Brown's Sweetest Moments With Ex Kody

"To hear that he wasn't attracted to me, it was terrible to hear. And it's super embarrassing right? Ugh!" she said. "I just got to thinking, 'You know what? It really just goes both ways.' I really just wasn't attracted—after he said that, I was kinda like, 'Oh, well then I'm done. Then it's over.'"

In fact, she said hearing this was "almost a relief" as it confirmed they were done.  

"'Well then I'm not going to keep fighting for this, and I'm not going to keep trying, and I'm not going to keep doing this if you're not attracted to me,'" Christine, who shares six children with Kody, continued. "So everything that I've done for you, for the family means nothing."

Kody said during their premiere conversation that he'd been "turned off" by Christine's "behavior," with him appearing to reference where she'd stood with his fellow wives MeriJanelle and Robyn Brown. However, he claimed during the special that Christine had already "completely decided" that their marriage was over at that point and that he was "in denial."

Christine's relationship with Kody isn't the only one to come to an end. Janelle also revealed during the special that she and Kody have been separated for several months, and Kody said he didn't consider himself married to Meri anymore. (Kody legally married Meri in 1990, but they divorced in 2014 so he could legally wed Robyn. However, he'd still considered himself spiritually married to Meri, Christine and Janelle).

In addition to ending things with Kody, Christine said goodbye to the Sister Wives set in December after relocating from Arizona to Utah.

"This has been where I have sat for years talking about my feelings and this is the last time," she said in a Dec. 27 TikTok video. "And it's a little bittersweet today. This is it. Bye, Flagstaff."
