Sister Wives star Kody Brown has made clear that he's still holding a grudge when it comes to his ex-wife, Christine Brown.
Kody and Christine first got together in 1994, after Kody had already forged his relationships with his first two partners, Meri and Janelle.
The family grew once again in 2020 when Robyn Brown sparked up a relationship with Kody, but just one year later he and Christine decided to go their separate ways.
The ups and downs of their relationship has been documented in TLC's series Sister Wives, which kicked off its 18th season on 20 August.

The season premier showed Kody and Christine reunite for lunch for the first time since their divorce, and more footage from the awkward meeting is set to be revealed in a new episode this Sunday (27 August).
In the episode, Kody discusses how he really feels about seeing his ex again, and it's clear he's not happy about it.
"I don’t want to be here. I don’t want to be here with her," he says.

"Christine herself, her face doesn't bother me. It’s what she’s doing with our children, talking behind my back about the reasons she left (that bothers me)," Kody continues.
In her own moment with the camera, Christine says it's 'obvious' Kody is 'mad', adding: "Kody can get mad at me about a lot of things. He can name call me, that’s just fine. But when he sits there and he tells me to my face that I am pitting his children against him — no, no, that is not true.
"I am their sounding board. They get to talk to me about things that are hard and I listen."
During their lunch, Kody claims he has 'anxiety attacks' whenever he drives by Christine's old home, and speaks of the 'grief' and 'evil thoughts' he had about her following their breakup.

Responding to his admission, Christine says: "So it was grief over me leaving more than anything."
Referring to his dream to have a big family, Kody replies: "Even more than that. It was bigger than that. It was my big picture."
In a confessional, Christine accuses Kody of trying to 'blame' her for 'destroying his big picture'.

"[He] doesn't see that his actions over the course of 10 years is what has demolished his big picture," she says.
Meanwhile, Kody accused Christine of being 'Machiavellian', telling the camera: "She plays nice while stabbing you in the back."
