Following her decision to leave Kody and move to Utah, Kody was convinced the reason behind Christine’s swift departure was a “secret boyfriend.”

“I’ve never understood her need to move,” Kody told producers during an October 2022 episode. “She’s not a member of the polygamous community. She’s not a part of our church. I don’t understand it at all. Unless there’s some guy she wants to date there.”

Love the idea of the end having a romantic partner,” she told the publication in August 2022. “But I talked to Truely about it the other day and she’s like, ‘Mom, I really like our life how it is now.’ Down the road. I’m just going to let fate take care of that one.”

The Utah resident also noted that she “will be a monogamist from here on out.”

“I want a guy who actually loves me and wants to be with me intimately,” she explained. “I just want to be an example to my kids more than anything. I always told them, ‘Do what’s going to make you happy,’ I have to do the same.”

“I’m dating again!! Holy. Hell. Awkward,” she captioned a January 2023 photo of her in all black. “Dating online is crazy! Any advice for dating at 50?!”

“I just have to tell you I am dating someone exclusively,” she announced on February 7. “He’s wonderful and romantic and so kind and everything I’ve been looking for. [He’s] incredible with Truely. He’s absolutely a dream come true and I’m so excited to show you guys pictures and everything in a little bit.”

She went on to say that she’s “so excited” about her new relationship, but for now she’s “keeping him to [herself].”
