The single life seemed to be agreeing with Christine as the former reality TV star looked stunning in the series of snaps taken from her 50th birthday bash.

For the 1920's themed party, the celebrant rocked a glamorous gold and black patterned knee-length dress designed with black fringes at the bottom.

A feathery headpiece with gold and black touches complimented this classic flapper outfit, alongside a black feather boa and matching black heels.

The blonde had her hair styled in curly waves that fell gracefully over one shoulder while her makeup was minimal, completing the old-school theme.

The mother-of-six beamed at the camera while posing in front of party decorations, which followed the gold and black theme with a streamer backdrop and numerous balloons.

The slides also captured the former "Sister Wives" star posing with party guests, including her daughters Mykelti, Ysabel, and Truely, who donned unique 1920's outfits.

In the caption, Christine revealed that these heartwarming snaps occurred because of her ingenious party idea. The birthday girl wrote:

"I hosted a 1920's themed Murder Mystery dinner party, and it was AMAZING! The costumes, the conversations, the accusations, all of it! We may be addicted to them now!"

Naturally, the TV personality's fans flooded the post with well-wishes, but a few could not help but wonder why the other "Sister Wives" cast members were absent from the festivities.

Although the celebrant did not share the picture in her photo dump, PEOPLE reported that a sister-wife Janelle Brown attended the murder mystery-themed party.

The 52-year-old confirmed she made an appearance at the event by sharing images from the celebration on Instagram, where she wore an all-black ensemble paired with a long pearl necklace.

"Thanks @christine_brownsw for inviting Savanah and I to your 50th birthday party / 1920s Murder Mystery party," Janelle captioned the post.

"What a blast," she added, "And yes, like you, I'm addicted to these. SO MUCH FUN! Let's do it again soon!"

The good friends previously shared the same husband through their polygamous marital arrangement before Christine announced her separation from Kody in November 2021.

Following the split, the former reality TV co-stars remained close to each other and their families. Last month, the pair took a trip to Disney World with their children.

As for what went wrong in her marriage, the mother-of-six admitted during the last season of the reality TV show that she felt different about the polygamous situation.

While talking to Robyn, the youngest of Kody's wives, Christine confessed that she had been reflecting on the couple's relationship and questioning if she wanted to continue sharing a man with three other women.

As previously shared by The Blast, the media personality opened up about her divorce during a conversation with the "Sister Wives" series' host, Sukanya Krishnan.

The former TLC star felt saddened by her decision to leave Kody because she knew their separation would break fans' hearts.

However, after nearly 12 years of frequent fighting and feeling unappreciated, the "Becoming Sister Wives: The Story of an Unconventional Marriage" co-author finally prioritized her happiness.

The former reality TV star explained that she felt like the "basement wife" during the couple's polygamous relationship as she kept forgoing her needs for Kody and the other wives.

Following their separation, the mother-of-six has regained her independence after feeling choked up in her marriage to the Brown family's patriarch. In Christine's words:

"I feel like I can take a breath and get myself grounded and get my head in a good place and just rest for a bit."

The romantic feelings may have died between the former lovebirds, but their parental responsibilities remain strong as the pair continue to raise their six children amicably.
