ister Wives star Kody Brown almost called it quits when courting Christine Brown after he saw her eating in the backseat of his car. This happened right around the time Kody first developed romantic feelings for Christine.

Christine had been a friend for quite a while before marrying Kody. Christine joined Meri Brown and Kody Brown on a road trip to the Wyoming farm owned by the Sister Wives patriarch’s family.

This story comes from the book “The Making of Sister Wives: A Story of an Unconventional Marriage” The book was published during the early seasons of the TLC show and it hit Number One on the New York Times Best Sellers list.

Sister Wives: Kody Brown Sees Christine Brown in Mirror Devouring Food

All five of the Sister Wives adults took part in writing this book. One of the many stories Kody told started on a road trip. At the time he saw Christine through the rear-view mirror of a car. What he described is rather disheartening for fans to hear. This offers more fuel to the people out there who ask what these four women could possibly see in Kody Brown.

This road trip occurred even before Janelle entered the Sister Wives picture as the second wife. Christine Brown was head over heels for Kody and wanted to marry him and become a sister wife to Meri. Christine Brown, who wasn’t a Brown at that time, sat in the backseat.

This young husband drove and his first wife, Meri, sat in the front seat with him. Throughout the trip, Kody got a glimpse of Christine in the mirror. Kody said the trio drove through the night and in the morning they stopped at a Quickie Mart.

After that stop, the next glimpse in that rear-view mirror stunned Kody Brown. There he saw a “chubby” Christine chowing down on a breakfast that consisted of the biggest portion of chili cheese nachos he ever saw. This did it in for the future Sister Wives shared hubby.
