The third season of The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives, now available on Hulu, finally sheds light on the controversies surrounding Jessi Draper Ngatikaura, a cast member whose personal life has been under scrutiny. The season provides an update on her relationship with Marciano Brunette from Vanderpump Villa and the current state of her marriage to Jordan Ngatikaura. Jessi, who initially played a minor role in the show’s first season, takes center stage in season 3, revealing the intricacies of her life and relationships.
While the first two seasons of The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives focused on the drama within Taylor Frankie Paul’s MomTok group, including infighting, membership decisions, and conflicts with their partners’ group, DadTok, season 3 delves deeper into the personal struggles of the cast members. The divide between the main group and early members Demi Engemann and Whitney Leavitt, a semi-finalist on Dancing With The Stars season 34, becomes more apparent. Although Whitney makes occasional appearances in season 3, Demi’s presence is felt throughout, particularly in her drama with Jessi and Marciano.
