SISTER Wives star Christine Brown broke down in tears as she said ex Kody didn’t want to have sex with her anymore before their breakup.
The 49-year-old made the claim in a teaser for Sunday’s episode of the TLC show.
In a clip shared by PEOPLE, Christine opened up about a difficult conversation she had with Kody, 52, about the “intimate side” of their relationship.
Following a tough conversation with Kody, Christine said in a confessional: “He goes, ‘I’m not interested in having an intimate marriage anymore. I don’t like your behavior. We’ll see if you can be a good sister wife,’ and all this.
“I’m like, ‘Okay, so you don’t want us to have an intimate marriage?’ And he goes, ‘No.’ I’m like, ‘That’s not enough for me. I can’t not have an intimate marriage.'”
Kody told Christine he knows plenty of couples that aren’t intimate in their marriage, though Christine insisted she needs more from the Brown patriarch.
Christine then wondered if their relationship was “over,” adding: “I don’t know what to do.”
The Sister Wives star later said it’s unfair that Kody got to have “intimate marriages” with his other wives.
In addition to Christine, Kody is married to Meri, 50, Janelle, 52, and Robyn, 43.
As the clip continued, Christine admitted she was “heartbroken” and said her heart was “shattered.”
She also admitted to knowing for a while about the problems in their marriage, with Kody even telling her that he’s no longer attracted to her.
Christine continued: “I just thought that maybe it would get better, but it’s over.
“The intimate part of our marriage is over and, to be honest, I’m not okay with that.
“I’m not okay with staying in a marriage where there’s no intimacy. That’s not a real marriage.”
Another teaser- which was shared by TLC’s Twitter account– showed Christine sobbing about how to break the news of the split to their kids.
Christine confirmed her split from Kody in a statement on social media in November.
She said at the time: “After more than 25 years together, Kody and I have grown apart and I have made the difficult decision to leave.”
The divorce came after Christine had expressed on the show that she wanted to return to Utah.
Kody was not interested, which ultimately pushed his wife to make a decision and leave without him.
She married Kody back in 1994 and became his third wife after Janelle and Meri, but tensions rose after the polygamist married his fourth wife Robyn in 2014.
Christine and Kody share six kids together: Aspyn, 26, Mykelti, 25, Paedon, 23, Gwendlyn, 20, Ysabel, 18, and Truely, 11.
It is not clear if Christine will continue to star on Sister Wives after leaving Kody.
Paedon recently addressed speculation when a fan asked him on TikTok: “Will your mom return if there’s another season of Sister Wives?”
He replied: “They are filming currently.”
