Meet the Real-Life partners of ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ cast

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, a hit reality television series on Hulu, has captured an audience since its debut in 2024, giving us an inside look at the lives of Utah-based Mormon influencers living the #MomTok life as they navigate through the complexities of motherhood, friendship, and marriage. With season 4 set to premiere on March 12, 2026viewers will get to see what is happening in these women’s relationships, including some of the issues they have experienced with scandal, infidelity, and personal growth. Several of these women have had their spouses on #DadTok and have had to deal with ongoing drama and chaos in their lives.

Here’s a look at the key partners as detailed in recent coverage.

Taylor Frankie Paul had broken up with her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. She is currently single, having been through a divorce from ex-husband Tate Paul, with whom she shares two children, along with a child with Dakota, Ever True, who was born in March 2024. Taylor’s tumultuous, back-and-forth relationship with Dakota was highlighted throughout the seasons leading up to his 2026 marriage on The Bachelorette.

Jen Affleck and Zac share three children; their latest Addition was born in July 2025, after Zac met Jen Affleck in the summer of 2018 and married her in June 2019. During the earlier seasons, we saw tension between Zac and Jen related to the difference in their background–Zac’s was traditional, while Jen’s was more public and was a result of being a star in the entertainment industry–and their brief break (one month) that took place in Season 2 of their relationship before reconciling.

Demi Engemann and Bret Engemann have been married since April 2021. They started dating in 2020 and got married just over a year later. In addition to having Demi’s daughter from her previous marriage, the combined family also has two boys of Bret’s from his first marriage to Angie Harrington. In season 3 of their reality show, Demi was involved in drama resulting from a cheating scandal with Marciano Brunette; she has since denied those allegations and has filed a defamation lawsuit against Demi that she is currently trying to have dismissed.

Mayci Neeley married Jacob Neeley; the two met and became friends after Mayci’s first child’s father died in 2015. Jacob and Mayci have two children together, and Mayci gave birth to their third child in July 2025 after going through IVF.

Mikayla Matthews and her husband, Jace Terry, were set up at age 16 but didn’t start dating until years later. They had their first child together when Mikayla was 17 years old and married in 2018. In season 4 of the show, Mikayla and Jace were separated due to intimacy issues related to Mikayla’s childhood trauma.

Whitney and Conner Leavitt (married in 2016, after a double-date meet-cute) are still together, raising three children (one born during season 2) and have moved temporarily for Conner’s porn addiction; “lavender marriage” rumors were dismissed by the couple.

Jessi Ngatikaura and Jordan Ngatikaura are married with three children; they have reconciled after being separated for 90 days (season 3) due to Jessi’s emotional affair and Jordan’s emotional abuse (he has admitted to this); both have committed to working on their relationship and healing.

Layla Taylor and Miranda Hope (formerly aka McWhorter) are both single after their divorces, Layla from Clayton Wessel and Miranda from Chase McWhorter (who split in August 2024 due to a scandal), and both are focusing on co-parenting and their own growth.

These couples’ storylines portray real-life struggles beyond the image portrayed by influencers on social media.
