Christine Brown Admits She Was ‘In a Cult,' Raised Kids in 1 Before Divorce

Christine Brown is opening up about losing her religion — and raising her family in what she says was a “cult” — in her new, tell-all memoir.

In the prologue for Sister Wife: A Memoir of Faith, Family and Finding Freedom, out now, Christine, 53, asked herself, “But was I in a cult?”

She acknowledged that her religious belief, what she described as a “version of fundamentalist, polygamist Mormon” faith, can be considered to be a cult by many in the outside world, but confessed, “If I was, I’m glad of it.”

Christine, whose grandfather led the Apostolic United Brethren starting in 1954, explained, “I come from a family and a community filled with talent, nurturing and love and women who had the support and ability to make good decisions for themselves.”
