Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Cast Hookups Over the Years
Disney

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast has had its fair share of overlap when it comes to hookups within the friend group.

When the show premiered on Hulu in 2024, viewers were introduced to Jen Affleck and husband Zac Affleck, Demi Engemann and husband Bret Engemann, Whitney Leavitt and husband Conner Leavitt, Mikayla Matthews and husband Jace Terry, Mayci Neeley and husband Jacob Neeley, Jessi Ngatikaura and husband Jordan Ngatikaura, Taylor Frankie Paul and then-partner Dakota Mortensen and Layla Taylor. (Miranda McWhorter, meanwhile, joined the show in season 2 after her split from Chase McWhorter.)

Most of the couples on the show have been married for years, but due to a “soft swinging” scandal and some other offscreen drama, there have been a few surprising hookups — and allegations of infidelity.
