The final part of the Sister Wives Season 18 Tell-All airs Sunday night, and, in new clips just released by TLC, Kody Brown gives his thoughts on his ex-wife Christine‘s new man, David Woolley. David— who was engaged to Christine at the time the clip was filmed— also reveals what he really thinks about Kody.
In one clip of Part 4 of the Tell-All episode, Kody is shown getting angry that Christine is starting over while his own life remains a mess.
“This has unraveled my family, and she’s riding off into the sunset!” he said.
In the same clip, Christine does not seem concerned that Kody is unhappy.
“I’m not married to him anymore! I don’t have to be all, ‘Ohhh. I’m so sorry!” she says.
In another clip released Friday, David is asked by host Suki Krishnan how he feels about Kody.
“He wears his emotions on his sleeve,” David says. “A lot. And sometimes you’ve got to not— but that’s him. That’s who he is, I can’t say anything differently.
“Would I be like that? No. It’s just, he wants you to hear him,” he added.
Kody goes on to state that, in his opinion, Christine had to make him look like a bad guy to David to justify her leaving him.
“Here’s the thing: for David’s sake, David Woolley’s sake, Christine has to destroy my character, or David doesn’t feel like he can marry her, because she left a good man.”
“I’m not a bad guy,” Kody continued. “Christine and I just weren’t in a good marriage.”
Suki tells Kody that she just met David and that she doesn’t believe he would only marry Christine if Christine trashed Kody’s character.
“He doesn’t feel that way at all,” she said. “He’s just kind of like, ‘You know what? A marriage didn’t work out. There’s a divorce that took place and now I’m meeting this woman where she is right now and that’s it.”
Suki assured Kody that he’s still a “good man” even though Christine left him.
“[Christine] needs to stop telling my children I’m not then,” Kody says sternly. “I’m not going to let that go— ever!— until those kids come to me.”
(As The Ashley has previously reported, Kody is estranged from most of his adult children.)
Suki again assured Kody that David doesn’t have any bad feelings toward him.
“Good, that’s awesome,” Kody said. “I don’t even know David. I hope Christine is choosing well.”
“I hope that she’s very happy,” Kody continued. “I’m not judging him but my life has been public for years.”
In his conversation with Suki, David said he does have some empathy for Kody.
“It can get overwhelming…but, like I said, with [me] dating women, my kids came first,” he said. “And if someone tried to push me and tell me I had to be a [certain place], here or there, it’s like, ‘No, that ain’t gonna work.’ You know, there’s room for everybody.”
In the time since these segments were filmed, Christine and David have gotten married, and Kody and David have met” “several times,” according to Christine, including at the July wedding of her and Kody’s daughter Gwendlyn.
Christine stated in a recent interview that the interactions between Kody and David went relatively well.
“It worked out to be all right,” Christine said. “I feel like ‘OK’ is the best way to put it. It’s going to be OK because we’re all adults and we’re all responsible. We’re all people that have raised our kids together. So, it’s going to be [OK] because it needs to be.”
In another recent interview, Christine revealed that viewers will be able to see Kody meet David, as the meeting was filmed for the next season of ‘Sister Wives.’
“You’ll see them meet, and– you know what?— they’re going to be cordial,” Christine said. “I was so nervous, for no reason…it was interesting watching both of them…it’s good. My past is good. My future is better, but my past is good, too.”
