The Secret Lives of Mormon Wiveswas an overnight success after first premiering onHuluearlier this September. This show dives deep into the personal lives of the infamous women of MomTok.Taylor Frankie Paul, Whitney Leavitt, Demi Engemenn, Mayci Neeley, Mikayla Matthews, Layla Taylor,Jessi Ngatikaura,andJennifer Affleckare a group of women who decided to come together as a group on TikTok to share their lives with their families and life as a Mormon with the entire world. Watching all of these women on the big screen on their own reality show is much different compared to watching a twenty-second clip on TikTok, and fans are taking to social media to express how much they fell in love with this cast of Mormon women from Utah and cannot wait for a second season.
The first season ofThe Secret Lives of Mormon Wivesbrought it all. Laughter, tears, heartbreak, unexpected friendships blossoming, friendships coming to an end, scandals, and, of course, drama. Fans of the show havecrowned Whitney Leavitt as the mean girl of the season. Throughout Season 1,Whitney seemed to have burned every bridge she crossed. She was friends with all the women in the group, but by the finale, she was friends with none. All of MomTok decided to unfollow her at the same time at Mayci’s party because they all believed that she was not a great friend with pure intentions. At the beginning of the show, it was obvious thatWhitney was jealous of Taylorandthe fame that Taylor gainedbecause of TikTok. The final straw for Taylor was when Whitney did not show up for her baby shower. Taylor thought that they were still friends, and fans thought it was acowardly thing to do, instead of simply having a conversation with Taylor and mending the relationship.
Demi Engemenn had multiple problems with Whitneyas well. Besides Whitney dropping personal details about Demi’s intimate life with her husband,Bret Engemenn, whom Demi obviously did not want to be mentioned on national television, Whitney took things too far. When the women were away on a girls’ trip, Whitney had drama with not only Taylor but Demi as well. When asked during an intense game of answering intense anonymous questions,Whitney shared that Demi was her least favorite girl in the group. Arguably, Demi is actually one of the realest because she is not afraid to speak her mind and call people out when they deserve to be.Whitney took to social media recently to post that she is embracing her villain era, using the famous TikTok sound, “And so if that makes me a villain, then so be it”. Whitney has even gone as far as to post private messages between her and Mayci. When it is time for these women to film Season 2,fans are eager to see whether Whitney will be joining them.
What’s Going On With ‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Zac and Jennifer
Is there still trouble in paradise for the Utah Afflecks?
If there were to be a Season 2 ofThe Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,it would certainly give some of these husbands and boyfriends a chance to redeem themselves. Fans seem to be rallying behind Jennifer Affleck, commenting on her Instagram posts and TikTok videos that her husband,Zac Affleck,does not deserve her after the treatment that fans saw throughout the show.Zac said some extremely hurtful words to Jenniferwhen she did not even do anything wrong. He texted her that he was not sure if he could stay married to her because of her actions, that he did not want her around their children, and that he needed time to reflect on her poor choices. All Jennifer did all season was support Zac, especially since the other women ofMomTok tried to talk Jennifer into thinking she deserved better.During Season 2, if Jennifer and Zac decide to return to the show since he convinced her to leave MomTok and move to New York so that he can complete med school, it would be a great time for Zac to try and win the fans over and prove to the world that how he was portrayed throughout Season 1 is not an accurate representation of him. For now,fans are not happy with him.
The Biggest Scandal Involved Taylor and Dakota
Similar to Zac Affleck,fans have expressed concern forTaylor Frankie Paul after watching everything that went down between her and her boyfriend,Dakota Mortensen. Taylor and Dakota had their fair share of emotional and intense momentsthroughout Season 1.Taylor had gotten arrested for a domestic dispute. Taylor’s mother made it known that she was not Dakota’s biggest fan, especially since Dakota had gotten Taylor pregnant, and they were still not married. In the Mormon religion, not only is divorce frowned upon, and Taylor is a divorced woman, but it is also forbidden to have a child without being married.The biggest scandal of the entire show involves Taylor and Dakota, and it is finding out ifDakota really cheated on herwith a woman named Taylor. There were rumors swirling around that Dakota may have been unfaithful, and Mayci went straight to the source. The last scene in the final episode is Mayci callingJenna, this mystery woman, and asking her if she has ever had relations with Dakota. Jenna says, “I’ll tell you everything” and that is how the show ends.
Hopefully, during Season 2, not only Taylor, but the fans as well can get some closure as to who Jenna is and if Dakota really had been unfaithful to his pregnant girlfriend.Taylor and Dakotaare still posting on social media together and have confirmed that they are still a couple, so maybe during Season 2, fans can see a different side to Dakota and watch the couple thrive with their baby.The Secret Lives of Mormon Wivesis filled with entertaining women showing what life is all about; having fun with their friends and being there for one another. Season 1 was a huge success because of the beloved MomTok members, andfans cannot wait to see what this crazy group brings for Season 2.The Secret Lives of Mormon Wivesis available to stream on Hulu in the US.
