Kody Brown is taking accountability for his failed relationships.

The Sister Wives star recently opened up about the end of three of his four marriages ahead of the show's 18th season. In the last two years, Kody parted ways with spouses Christine BrownJanelle Brown and Meri Brown—all of whom he was in a spiritual marriage with—leaving him in a monogamous relationship with legal wife Robyn Brown.

"It's been painful, a lot of finger pointing and blame," the 54-year-old told People in an interview published August 16. "I could have done a lot better."

Kody, who is dad to 18 children from his four marriages, added, "But you have to hope we still have a friendship in the future. Because we're bound forever through our kids."

And he isn't the only one opening up about their new normal. Janelle, who was with Kody for almost 30 years before their 2022 split, noted of the future, "We're all settling into the new path. There's only possibilities in front of us."

As for how Kody's three exes are faring since leaving their plural marriage behind? Well, Christine has not only found new love, she is also heading back down the aisle.

Back in February, Christine debuted her new relationship with David Woolley—and he got down on one knee just two months later in April.

"We're engaged!" the 51-year-old captioned her April 13 post sharing the happy news. "David popped the question VERY romantically, and I said YES! I'm so excited and just live in bliss every day! #engaged #newworld #soulmates #loveofmylife." 

And her costar Janelle was sure to share her support, adding in the comments, "Hurray!!!"

Since first making their relationship public, Christine has shared many sweet moments between the pair, including vacations together, family time and adorable clips of the two dancing. 

"I can't express how amazing it's been to have David in my life," she captioned a March 12 Instagram post of the two. "He's an incredible man and he treats me like his Queen."
