What led to the downfall of the Snowden family from the first three seasons of Seeking Sister Wife? Despite their initial two marriages and apparent acceptance of the women entering their lives, things took a turn for the worse. Let’s delve into the details.
Ashley and Dimitri Snowden made their debut on TLC’s Seeking Sister Wife in the first season. They were a spiritually united couple seeking to expand their family. Unfortunately, their first attempt did not go well. However, they persisted and returned for Season 2 with a new addition, Vanessa Cobbs, who was new to polygamy. The couple’s children quickly formed a bond with Vanessa, and she even changed her diet and abstained from intimacy as part of a cleanse. Eventually, she moved to California with the Snowdens and had a spiritual marriage with Dimitri. However, by the end of the tell-all segment, she had left the couple. Nevertheless, the Snowdens found two new women to court.
Tayler Middleton and Christeline Petersen entered the picture, but when the COVID-19 pandemic hit and lockdowns ensued, the situation became overwhelming. Tayler chose to leave, but South African Christeline stayed with her two daughters and legally married Dimitri. As the season aired, allegations of domestic abuse surfaced. Christeline filed a Temporary Restraining Order (TRO) against Dimitri, accusing him of slamming her head into a headboard. She also claimed that Ashley physically restrained her from leaving. To support Christeline, Vanessa Cobbs and another ex-partner created a GoFundMe campaign while Christeline went into hiding.
Their goal was to assist Christeline in rebuilding her life. Concurrently, allegations of questionable behavior by Dimitri came to light, and Ashley eventually left him. It appeared that Dimitri had nothing and was homeless, but he and Christeline remained married. They have since divorced, and it seems that Ashley and Dimitri have reconciled. However, they decided to step away from Seeking Sister Wife as more allegations against Dimitri emerged.
Why has the past of Seeking Sister Wife resurfaced in the present? Viewers are sometimes curious about the fates of former cast members. A Reddit thread was recently initiated to inquire about the Snowden family’s downfall. The original poster (OP) asked:
“What caused the Snowdens downfall? I’m watching seasons 2-3 for the first time, so I searched their name on this subreddit to see where they are at now and saw posts about allegations from the ex-sister wife. I also saw a screenshot of an email where Dimitri states he is homeless. When did it all go south? They seemed to live comfortably. Can someone fill me in, please?”
This sparked conversations about what transpired. Were other viewers aware of the details?
“Going on TV. All the skeletons fell out of the closet and started dancing.”
“Search for them in the subreddit. Apparently, they’re abusive crooks.”
“That happened a while ago. I saw on Instagram that he and his wife are back together after she supposedly left him following these allegations, and she went right back to him. He’s no longer homeless.”
Thus, the discussion surrounding the Snowdens’ situation emerged due to viewers’ curiosity and the revelations that surfaced after their appearance on the show.
