Christine Brown Shares She’s ‘Never Had Anyone’ Like David Woolley in Her Life: ‘I Won the Lottery’ (Exclusive)

In a conversation with PEOPLE about her new husband, Christine Brown says David Woolley is “a phenomenal person to the core”

Christine Brown is lucky in love!

The Sister Wives star exclusively opened up to PEOPLE about her once-in-a-lifetime love story with husband David Woolley, whom she married Saturday in Moab, Utah.

The 51-year-old TLC — who went public with the relationship on Valentine’s Day — says her now-husband “has more integrity than anybody I know. He built his business while he was being a single dad, so it’s everything to him.”

She continues, “His word is his bond, and it means everything to him…. If he says he’s going to do it, he’s going to do it.”

She gushes, “He’s a phenomenal person, to the core. He’s just outstanding. Yeah, I just feel like I won a gold mine, major. I won the lottery with him.”

Christine and Woolley, 59 got to celebrate their love in front of 330 guests — including Christine’s former sister wife Janelle Brown. Christine’s ex-husband Kody Brown and her other sister wivesMeri Brown and Robyn Brown (who is Kody’s sole remaining wife from the Browns’ plural marriage) were not in attendance.

Christine and the businessman struck up a connection earlier this year, which Christine declared on Instagram, sharing, “I finally found the love of my life, David. The first time he held me close, it felt like my soul took its first breath.”

Fifteen months before introducing David to the world, Christine announced in November 2021 that she was leaving her spiritual marriage to Kody, 54.

Though the exes — who share children Aspyn, 28, Mykelti, 27, Paedon, 25, Gwendlyn, 21, Ysabel, 20 and Truely, 13 — are no longer together, they still appear on Sister Wives, which is currently chronicling the family’s unraveling (Janelle confirmed in December 2022 that she and Kody had separated, and by the next month Meri was also no longer in her marriage to the Brown patriarch).

Unlike her previous relationship, Christine tells PEOPLE her relationship with her now-husband is “simple. It’s really simple. It’s a simple, simple life. And I didn’t know I could have a simple life with somebody.”

She adds, “I didn’t know I would find a soul mate. I totally found a soul mate. He’s totally my soulmate, and I didn’t even know.”

She acknowledges, “I come with a lot of complications, and he loves me — and that’s the best thing of all.”

Sister Wives airs Sundays at 10 p.m. ET on TLC.
