She's done sharing! Christine Woolley spent more than 25 years in a plural marriage to Kody Brown... who counted Meri, Janelle and Robyn Brown as wives, too. But now she's supremely grateful to have David Woolley - whom she married on Oct. 7, 2023 - all to herself. In fact, "I'm happier than I've ever been," the star of the reality hit Sister Wives (TLC, Sundays, 10 P.M.) gushes to Us.
Since exchanging vows in front of their families (they have 14 kids and 16 grandkids combined!), the Lehi, Utah, couple have traveled to the Dominican Republic, Sedona, Ariz., and Disneyland; cruised to Haiti and opened an Airbnb in Moab, Utah. They've also reveled in simple moments: "We were drinking coffee one morning, and he looked at me and [said], 'You are so damn beautiful," she recalls fondly. With drywall company owner Woolley by her side, Christine, 52, is leading with happiness: "It's mind-blowing how having someone there to support you makes you a better person." She has lots more good things to share!
How would you describe this past year of marriage?
Full of adventure and security at the same time. We've accomplished so much and had a blast. It's wonderful being loved and loving.
The traditional first-anniversary gift is paper. What did you two exchange?

Kelly Osbourne is feeling herself. Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I don’t think I look my age,” says the star, who turned 40 on Oct. 27. She’s right: It’s hard to believe it’s been 22 years since she entered our living rooms along with her famously outrageous family in the groundbreaking MTV reality series The Osbournes. Despite appearances, she’s certainly lived a lot of life over the past two-plus decades, battling addiction, mental health issues and body shaming, both from the media and her own inner voice.
