Sister Wives Christine Brown is engaged to David Woolley, and their relationship timeline has been surprising every step of the way. After ending her marriage to Brown after over 25 years, Christine met David. The couple didn't officially announce their relationship online until 2023 but had been together for some time before they made their relationship public knowledge. Christine has spoken candidly about her love for David since announcing that she was dating him, making it clear that her relationship with Kody was a low point in her life.

While Christine may have found her perfect match in David, and the couple's sweet engagement photos prove how happy they are together. Since they've only been in the public eye for a few months, learning more about their relationship before it was public has been tricky, but their timeline makes sense.

How Christine Brown & David Woolley Met

While it's unclear how David and Christine met, the Sister Wives star did mention she had put herself back into the dating game after splitting from Kody in 2021. In early 2023, Christine posted a photo on her Instagram, along with the caption, "I’m dating again!! Holy. Hell. Awkward. Dating online is crazy!...Any advice for dating at 50?!" Under a month later, Christine debuted David on social media, explaining that she'd met the "love of her life" and gushing about how happy she was in her new relationship. Though she didn't keep David under wraps for long, the pair may have been talking earlier in the year than Christine shared.

David met her local children, including Truely Brown, first and then met her other kids, including a few of her fellow Sister Wives children and grandchildren. As fixtures in each other's lives, Christine and David have taken the time to get to know each other's families throughout 2023 and ensure they all know where the couple stands.
