Sister Wives’Christine BrownandDavid Woolleyare living happily ever after now, but that doesn’t mean their love story was a fairy tale from the start.

Chatting exclusively with PEOPLE, Christine recalls thenow-newlyweds' second date — including one rather blunt word Woolley used to describe her ex-husbandKody Brown.

“David didn’t live under a rock,” Christine told PEOPLE of her love’s awareness of her role on the TLC reality show. “He told me on our second date — I blurted out everything and I told him about the show. He was like… well, he said, ‘Kody’s a dumbass.’ So he knew of the show, yes. But he would rather not be on the show, he’d rather just be in my life.”

But David’s impression of her fromSister Wiveswasn’t all the TLC star had to worry about — his own family wasn’t entirely sure he was actually datingtheChristine Brown. In fact, when he told his daughter about the budding relationship, he says “she thought I was being catfished.”

Of course, David was getting the real deal in Christine. The pair are nowhappily married, and she posted onInstagramSunday that her new husband “loves all my sides, because sometimes I’m brilliant, bad and a little mad.”

For his part, David called the reality start his “unicorn” in anInstagrampost on Sunday where he admitted he’d been anxious to make hisSister Wivesdebut.

“I’ve never been in front of a camera and I was so nervous,” he wrote. “However, I was thrilled to tell everyone that I finally found my unicorn and how much I love her.” He rounded out the post with a few hashtags: #oneonone #nervous #loveofmylife #myqueen
