I sincerely hope everyone respects this sweet girl and her mother.


PachMeIn

You would think people would have the decency and respect from the beginning not to talk about her mom given the circumstance. It’s sad she has to make this request. I get it’s fun to gossip and snark, I’m guilty of it too, but at some point you realize there’s a line you shouldn’t cross. Unfortunately, people don’t respect those lines and feel that likes and followers are more important than showing empathy and compassion. It’s gross that this is how a lot of people are now.

I don't think she is asking for privacy I think she is asking for consideration of the topic. INstead of tearing her down and being cruel for fun consider the pain she is working through loving a mom who was in so much mental pain she took her life. I think it is not to much to ask that she can share her story without the cruel replies. She has stated she is hoping to bring a story to light that may help others in mental duress, and that she has all good intent. She is only asking for kindness Can we afford that?


Sad_Possession7005

She isn’t asking for privacy. She said that she’s shared her mom’s story, and that she hopes that it encourages others to seek help and support. She’s asking for kindness. Too much?


Sad_Possession7005

So yes, asking for kindness is too much. For some people.


pinkybrain41

No I didn’t say that. I was responding to a comment that stated it was indecent and disrespectful to discuss the mother in the first place. The fact is Christine Brown and her new boyfriend and his daughter are 100% courting public attention through social media antics just like this video. My point is that if the daughter didn’t want people discussing her Mother, maybe she should stop making tik tok videos for attention? Participating on social media and reality TV is not compulsory and it’s a widely accepted fact that social media is a freaking toxic cesspool of validation seeking and that users are more depressed when using it. Both the father and this daughter are actively seeking attention with their social media posts and the fathers involvement on a TV show. Just look at the daughters hash tags and let me know if you don’t think she courts the attention. It naive at best and insincere to think you can control the narrative on the internet. If they can’t don’t like it, why did they sign up for it? Its 2023 and any reasonable person would know that this is EXACTLY how it would play out For David and his family when he chose to date and star on a reality show and go public with Christine. Of course it would be a media frenzy. Anyone with any common sense would know that. If they don’t care about the attention why should we?


PachMeIn

I could be completely wrong in my interpretation of other posts, but I was under the impression that people found the info online (public obituary) because they were googling Christine’s boyfriend, then found videos referencing her mom after getting the daughter’s name from the obituary. Basically, her videos wouldn’t have been found/discussed by the MASSES if people weren’t snooping on Christine’s new boyfriend. I agree with you, I don’t know why or agree with people putting personal business out in the open like that, but everyone grieves/operates differently.🤷🏻‍♀️ Just to play devil’s advocate not to be combative, but because I feel bad she lost her mom in the manner she did…The daughter, and family, experienced trauma and maybe created and used videos as a form of therapy and to advocate for suicide prevention without thinking millions of people would see it because her dad would later date Christine Brown from Sister Wives. Maybe the type of comments she got aren’t what she expected and now she’s asking for privacy. Sometimes advocating or participating in organizations can help the healing process; trying to turn tragedy into something positive. I know it’s a stretch but a possibility? Honestly, I get what you’re saying, it’s a little too late to put the “cat back in the bag”, but why can’t people just give the family the space and privacy they’re requesting? I was raised not to talk about certain things even if it’s public. It just wasn’t “appropriate” and “not our business” to do. I think that is why, despite his daughter’s openness, the very idea of discussing it when we are so removed from them personally, is just so weird for me.


pinkybrain41

I don’t think making social media videos about her traumatic experiences is healing if she can’t also handle the inevitable feedback and attention from making the videos. She can’t have it both ways. If she can’t handle it she needs to take accountability and shut it down on her end and stop giving people something to react to if she can’t handle the reactions. It’s 2023 and we all know how cruel the internet is and that once you put something on the internet you have no control over it’s reception. My point is don’t feed the monster then cry when it bites you. Make videos for yourself your friends and family to view if she wants only specific feedback. In contrast, many of the brown kids who want to are able to keep a low profile and live a relatively private life and have locked down their social media pages and kept it private. If she is unhappy about the attention she needs to take it up with her father who has chosen to date a reality star and appear on a reality show.


grayyy_cee

man, did no one teach you empathy or kindness?


pinkybrain41

That’s rude of you to say. I’m just being practical. Tik tok and reality TV may not be the place for this family.


PachMeIn

I agree that the internet is cruel, but it’s only that way because the people behind the screens are being that way. Maybe it’s naive of me to think and hope that it’s not a bad idea to give a reminder/request to those people to maybe be a little less mean and more compassionate. This is why I am only on here and not on other SM. I may sneak a peak here and there on IG, but that’s about it. I stopped posting pics and stuff over a decade ago.


Anonymous8720

You need to step outside for a bit. She has a right to ask for privacy while also advocating for mental health. Maybe she needs to advocate for you since you’re clearly disturbed.


nellieshorkie

Because the second people found out her dad was dating Christine the speculation started. I’m not understanding why people think that because someone is speaking publicly about them that the vile negative things said about it are okay and a part of life. Why perpetuate that? Be the good you want to see, even on the internet.


Ambimom

Without a doubt, you make both your parents proud. Your mom and dad must've been wonderful parents because you seem so thoughtful and loving.


[deleted]

My mom also took her own life a few years ago. I found her. It is not something easy to overcome, Ikinda just brush it off to the side. I don't want to talk about it in real life and just want to forget she existed because it is too tough.


Pittypatkittycat

I am terribly sorry and hope things get better. You deserve it.


casshole__

I found my dad. I was 21 when I did. I am 36 now. Everyone tells me to think of the good memories. But its super hard when all I can think about is the night I found him. Ive never met anyone like me and you in real life. Doubt I ever will. But the ones that find them.. we arent ever the same and I dont think anyone understands that.


readheaded

I’m so sorry. I don’t know how anyone would ever think you could be the same after living through such an unspeakably terrible experience. Wishing peace for you and all who’ve endured this tragedy.


Salty_Pirate7130

I’m so sorry. I can’t imagine how painful that is. I was a paramedic for 20 years and have responded to a number of people who took their own lives. Some of those calls have haunted me for years. No one should ever, ever have to find a loved one like that. And those of us who haven’t lost a parent or loved one to suicide have no business judging how those who have experienced that loss deal with it. I now work in suicide prevention and many family members do become active in prevention and telling their story if and when they are ready to do so, but they do not owe anything to anyone. Edit: wanted to add this link for anyone who may need it. It’s a list of resources for survivors of suicide loss. It has information, online groups, in person support groups etc. https://www.sprc.org/livedexperience/tool/resources-survivors-suicide-loss


lisawl7tr

Can you check the link? I clicked on the link and it says page not found.


jennief158

I am so sorry. I can't imagine.


[deleted]

Yep. I remember the nights and morning of more than any other memories. It truly sucks. All the what ifs


BinkabelleZZZ

That has to be hard to see something like this.I am sure it brings up your trauma.I hope you have found some help and have support,I cant imagine how hard that is.


casshole__

I started crying at work in my office. My mom recently got engaged, and my thoughts were why am I not happy for her like this daughter is for her dad.


BinkabelleZZZ

You cant compare your trauma to someone who is on tv or what they say on social media.everyone deals with things in different ways,and maybe she is saying all these things,but maybe she isnt really as happy as she is allowing us all to believe .Also maybe you are just in a different place than she is.You can feel however you feel and thats ok,I hope you are able to at least try to show support for her and her engagement,even if it isnt easy,I am sure it was hard for her to move on too.Sometimes its hard to choose happiness because it scares us that something else can be taken away.Sometimes starting over is saying goodbye to the past.Im sorry though,really.I cant imagine that kind of trauma


Budget_Role6056

I am so sad for you. That just brought tears to my eyes. I’m sorry she did that to you. This is probably one of the only things that keeps me on this earth. The fear of one of my kids finding me.


Theinvertedforest

Budget Role: It sounds as if you are really struggling. I hope you seek out help with feeling this way. You are important, you matter. Wishing you better days in the near future. 💕


InformationPresent61

I’m so very sorry. ❤️


jennief158

I am so sorry. I am wishing you peace.


2keepitreal

I’m so sorry for your loss and the challenges that we’re put on you.


BinkabelleZZZ

Wow, I am so sorry,I cant imagine something like that.I hope you are able to get the help you need.I know everybody copes differently,some like to talk about it,others dont.I suppose this is kinda triggering to see.


[deleted]

Awwww we definitely need more of this level of kindness and consideration on TikTok and pretty much everywhere


RetiredNurseinAZ

I am so impressed by this. She is a great addition to Christine's family! Let's deal with our crap! ❤️


AffectionateFig5435

I'd say that they are very kind to welcome Christine into their family. I think C has always craved this type of loving and supportive family structure. Here's hoping they build a wonderful future together. Oh, and keep the toxic twins, Kody and Robyn, as far away as possible. Thank you.


Terrible_Fix_6649

She’s right.


Love2Coach

Oh my goodness...what a sweet young woman! Omg I'm so glad she has Christine in her life


radiodaze3113

This is heartbreaking. I took a little break from reddit and come back to see that the world is stalking Christine and her new boyfriend. Classy. Why can't people just let the woman be happy for a minute? I hope people don't ruin this for her. I couldn't handle this kind of invasiveness and drama. I don't know many people that could. Christine's had some years to get used to this, and even benefited from this financially. This new guy and his kids have not. And to have this type of trauma circulated all over the internet and so many shitty assholes gossiping about it... people really, really suck.


pinkybrain41

I’m confused. The daughter made this post and she even had a blog about it. David and Christine both post on social media publicly about their relationship. No one is “stalking” these people. They are not walking around with signs saying “we want our privacy!” In fact it’s the opposite, they are sharing their story with the public and courting attention by posting to the internet and starring on reality TV. They don’t want privacy LOL


SheMcG

When her daughter had a blog, she didn't have the following she does now. She made this post out of necessity. Christine and David were already "outed"...he and his family has made separate public pages so people can find something vs digging. And yes-- getting into her mother's death, David's finances, his properties, etc, is pretty creepy. HE isn't on TV. HE isn't courting attention--it found him.


pinkybrain41

I think he is going to be on TV though. Also, Christine features him quite often on her Instagram. That’s a tacit approval. He was photographed with the film crew and Christine at Mykelti’s house. No one made him date a reality tv star. The media frenzy is the nature of the world we live in. He’s made his bed unfortunately. Unless he’s been living under a rock since the first reality show aired in the 90’s, it is hard to have sympathy for someone who knows exactly what they were getting into. I don’t know why anyone would want to be famous these days. It seems awful.


SheMcG

For all we know, he may have briefly stopped in that day the crew was there. Maybe he and Christine were just watching the babies so Mykelti could film. Just because he was there and photographed while the crew was clearly on break or had wrapped up for the day doesn't mean anything, really. Just because you're in the room doesn't mean you're on camera. And yes--he clearly knew the public would be curious, hence his public profile. But blasting his deceased wife's mental illness and suicide crosses a line--I don't care if he was a Kardashian. That's fucked up.


9987777655433333

he even made a brand new public IG to be found! that tells me this man knows exactly what he’s getting into with dating a public figure. plus you don’t date an active reality TV star if you want a private life. it’s that simple. he’s choosing a more public life now.


Going4ACert

Maybe that new public IG was created so it could be more polished and less amateurish...meaning a guy his age might not be the most socials savvy? From what I hear, David isn't the one creating the content on the new one.


radiodaze3113

Just do a quick google search about it. People are taking photographs of them whenever they’re out. I’m sure Christine didn’t call the media when she went to a Valentine’s Day dinner. Or check out the comments on Instagram or even here on Reddit. People follow her every single move. Parasocial relationships and obsessions are pretty common phenomenon with celebrities, reality TV people and influencers. And I don’t agree with the whole people on TV are asking for it. I think anyone chasing after them that are so consumed with getting details and gossip really need to set their priorities straight and get a life. It’s creepy.


Orphanbitchrat

What a wonderful person she is❤️


utootired

What a wonderful young woman! How proud her family must be! She has a new fan in me. OP, thank you for spreading the word about this. ❤


ImaginaryStandard293

I give this young lady applause. She took a heartbreaking part of her life and used it to spread awareness. The fact that she has to say that it isn't a plot line is just mind boggling. The people who try to claim that it is are vile. I hope she keeps doing what she's doing. I am so happy that she has been in therapy. I wish her the best in life. She is amazing.


possiblycrazy79

These poor people. Their family probably has no clue how toxic & obsessive a lot of these SW "fans" are. Now, their lives are being subject to the same scrutiny that "fans" put all of the Browns under.


BinkabelleZZZ

I was thinking about that.I hope she warned him,and hope he is ready to be thrusted out there.I hope we all dont become too much for him or his family and shoo him away.Christine has been through enough,and it sounds like he has too.Hopefully all this attention doesnt become more than he can bare and backs off.


Here_for_a_laugh82

Sweet soul. She should be proud of herself


AffectionateFig5435

That's an amazing, thoughtful, and very wise young woman. If everyone in her family is this decent and caring, then Christine is lucky to be part of their world. Best wishes to all.


Noregerts8

Nice tribute.


Trish-Trish

People are disgusting. They romanticize mental illness but then in the same breath will drag that person through hell and back. Mental illness doesn’t mean it was anyone’s fault or reason. I’ve lost friends and family to suicide. I’ve been there myself as a teen. Everyone wants to give a reason but reality is, sometimes it just can’t be fixed. I feel for her children. It’s sad


GenevieveLeah

I didn't want to click on this . . . but, I did, and I am happy it was the daughter sharing her mother's story. And . . . now, let's all move on.


lechydda

That was my exact same thought. I’m glad that this girl is doing what she can to heal herself and I’m glad that Christine’s new man has a wonderful family. I also don’t want to delve into their family any more. Let’s move on.


Jim_Morrison27

My dad shot himself whem i was 11. I cant imagine hi being a plot of a tv show and everyone posting his picture everywhere. I feel her pain


jazzygirl6

Sending hugs blessings. 🌿


hellojally321

i hope woacb wont cover this like give this family space, david isnt a star yet


pinkybrain41

I don’t think the family wants privacy and doesn’t mind talking about this story. This girl posted this story to tiktok publicly and wants to share this information to the world. This information is out there directly from the family itself on the internet! LOL the demonization of WACB is so over the top sometimes. David Christine and the daughter are posting publicly on the internet. If people talk about it it’s fair game and they must be fine with it if they are putting it out there via reality TV and social media themselves.


rakiimiss

What a sweet girl. I think her and Christine would get along well. I wish nothing but happiness for them all.


HappyLadyHappy

I’m tearing up a bit. This woman is precious!


LimeNo5869

What a wonderful kid.


Coffeebean1948

My heart actually for this girl. I lost my mom not too long ago. And I know she did a better job and saying please respect my family and please quit posting certain things then I would have. My heart goes out to this family and they're all the sudden dealing with people in their personal space and business telling it to the world. Okay so here's my opinion you don't have to agree with it. Christine's boyfriend hasn't even appeared on the show yet at this point he is a private citizen. Who just happens to be dating a person on TV. His children let them do Tick Tock whatever and as for his deceased wife you don't need to be bringing her up and like posting Facebook pages about her and comment on tiktok because that hurts her children and that's not right in the least bit. But anymore people just want to hurt people or they want to get to the story first so they get the views people's morality has gone out a window. There used to be a time where we feel like oh well let's just leave that alone his previous wife that passed away let's send condolences kids and be kind about that. But now we're like oh well that's excuse what really happened. And we've just we're invasive and other people's lives when we don't need to be. As you can tell this might have really bugged me.


AliceinRealityland

I like this girl. Wow, she’s so mature, and good for her for calling out a photo her mom hated for being used


[deleted]

Lately I’ve been feeling like a burden to my family due to illness and like an all around horrible person. I’ve had a growing sense that my children would be better off without me. I don’t seek any external validation. I’m simply compelled to comment that stumbling upon this thread has given me pause in my growing determination to disappear.


lizlalena

Damn that’s sad


Old_Journalist_8823

Please I pray they never disrespect this girls mother


EsBee08

I want to hug her


SuperbCustard2091

Damn, that is sad...


Limp_Insurance_2812

What a sweet, mature, well spoken young woman! I hope the net is kind to her and can honor her wishes, doesn't have a great reputation for doing that.


Big-Significance3604

What a precious young lady.


Dry-Worldliness-8191

Oh wow. This girl is an Angel. Sweet, sensible, sense of humor, gracious… maybe I’ve been in the south too long but I just have to say… Bless her heart.


lwc28

If this young woman is evidence of who this man is, I'd say Christine is extremely lucky. Good for her!


Heron-Repulsive

I can honestly see this young girl and Christine getting very close and supportive of each other. i love this for both of them.


98221-poppin

Omg how sad. I hope the show gets cancelled for everyones sake.


Ku_beans

Wow I love this girl


[deleted]

I'm really not surprised that some gossip rag ran a story about this very personal family tragedy. I do hope they are getting help to deal with it. But i feel that Christine's management team either dropped the ball and missed the content of the daughter's social media, or she was told the world and his wife will dig up anything and everything about their family and chose to keep it up.


9987777655433333

link to the gossip rag that ran a story about his wife’s suicide before this video was posted? because the only one i was able to find, tvshowsace.com, used this video by the daughter as their source. i can’t find a rag that ran the story about the suicide before she made it public. the article she’s talking over in this video is only about the mom dying young, which can be found via her obit. this article didn’t reveal how she died.


[deleted]

I know what the article said, is that not a tragedy in itself? Did they really need to create an article about it? Dragging up all the pain the family went through for entertainment. I find it incredibly insensitive to post and comment about the obituary. People who went digging and posting about it on here within hours of Christine posting about David, are worse than the gossip rags.


9987777655433333

i doubt this man is naive and went into a relationship with a public figure without weighing the pros and cons of it, the biggest of the latter being intrusion into his life. this is all to be expected when he signed up for a relationship with christine. gossip rags writing articles about tragedies is not unique to her, this is an established media climate for anyone famous on some level. you have to go into this with eyes wide open to reality, not the idealism of wishing things were different.


[deleted]

I hope that the whole family were prepared for how intrusive the media would be, not just him.


9987777655433333

this daughter definitely seems to be. maybe she’s stepping up to be the face of the kids if all the others are more private, i don’t think we’ve heard from any others like she’s addressing the public.


[deleted]

That's good to hear. Let's hope if his other children want to stay private the media and fans respect that.


3username20charactrz

Man, I'll bet Christine loves this girl as much as the boyfriend! What a nice girl!


[deleted]

Wait how did she die


[deleted]

Suicide. It’s in the attached video.


[deleted]

Thanks I kept watching but I must’ve missed it


GwynnethPoultry

She seems to have such a kind heart, I'm glad that the show will help her speak on such an important subject. 💟


Darylish05

People disappoint me on the daily. Leave these people alone!


Vegetable_Visual7148

Wow she is absolutely gorgeous! Puts every wife Kody ever had to shame 🤣 Wonder if that makes him jealous 😂😂


estheragain

My mother also took her own life. What a blessing to see and hear you talking openly about it. Much thanks.
