Sister Wives' Christine Brown Heartbroken as Daughter Mykelti Moves Utah to North Carolina Amid Family Changes

The 20th season of TLC's "Sister Wives" highlights significant changes for the Brown family, focusing on Christine Brown Woolley's emotional experience as her daughter Mykelti Padron prepares to move from Utah to North Carolina with her husband Tony and their three children. This relocation is motivated by Mykelti's desire for her children to grow up near cousins, particularly Maddie Brown Brush, who lives in North Carolina with her family, as well as Tony's career as a chess coach and teacher in Charlotte, known as a major chess hub. Christine struggles with the move, tearfully expressing how hard it is to say goodbye and lamenting missing out on her grandchildren's early years. The move also underscores the strained relationship between Mykelti and her father, Kody Brown, who did not see her before the departure. Throughout the season, the family also faces broader questions about the future of plural marriage, with Kody and Robyn questioning its place in their lives. These developments illustrate ongoing fractures and shifting dynamics within the Brown family.
