Christine was planning on taking her and Kody’s youngest daughter, Truely, along with her to Utah, which sparked an enormous debate amongst the group.
“She’ll be fine,” Christine assured everybody. “It’s going to be hard and she’ll miss everybody and I’ll be taking her from Kody…it’s hard, don’t get me wrong.” Kody, who had largely been quiet as much as that time, jumped into the dialog on the point out of his daughter. “You won’t be taking her from me,” he insisted. “We’ll have to get shared custody. It’ll have to be 50/50.”
In a confessional, he added, “I’m not going to sit here and have her do this without objecting to it and saying that we gotta work something out for custody. I don’t know what that looks like. This discussion hasn’t happened.” Christine was shocked by Kody’s response, and informed him that she thought that they had already mentioned this privately. “I never said it was okay that you were moving,” he retorted. “We just talked about moving.”
Christine remembered issues in a different way, however Kody stood his floor. “I never said it was okay,” he stated. “I never made a big deal of it, but I never answered that. You never asked if you could move. You said you were moving. Okay, I let you go, that’s what I said, I agree. But you never told me the first time you talked about this that you were going to move. You just said, ‘Let me go.’ That doesn’t mean you just run with Truely and Truely’s out of my life.”
Kody was adamant that he wanted to stay a key determine in his daughter’s life. That set Christine off, as a result of she didn’t really feel he was spending satisfactory time with any of their youngsters, even when she lived shut by. “I find it ironic that now he wants to be involved in my kids’ lives now that I’m leaving,” she admitted. “Now he wants 50/50 time with us. The whole time we lived here, if he wanted 50/50 time, he should’ve been around more. He doesn’t get 50/50. He hasn’t been around enough for that.”
The dialog continued in circles earlier than Christine moved on and warranted the opposite wives that they’d determine the way forward for holidays and birthdays as a household. “Me leaving won’t change the relationship my kids have with you,” she insisted.
Still, Robyn and Meri had been shook. “I’m still in shock a little bit,” Robyn admitted. “I’m still trying to figure out what this means for the family. The idea that Christine wouldn’t be my sister wife feels wrong to me. I haven’t seen a lot of positive examples of the aftermath when a wife leaves a plural family and that’s scary to me.” Meri added, “I don’t know how long this has been coming, but it’s really disappointing to me.”
The prolonged dialog ended with the episode, and there have been clearly nonetheless some damage and confused emotions. Sister Wives airs on Sundays at 10:00 p.m. on TLC.
