If you’ve watched season 3 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, you’re probably still reeling from all the friendship fractures — especially the fallout between Demi Engemann and Jessi Ngatikaura. Their tension largely centered on Marciano Brunette, but another unexpected name popped up during their heated on-screen text exchange: Gabi. And after fans paused the scene and zoomed in, everyone was collectively asking the same thing: Who is Gabi and why is she suddenly part of the drama?
One TikTok creator, @stephwithdadeetswho, broke down the messages and highlighted the part where Demi referenced this mysterious woman in a post from November 18. In the text, Demi wrote to Jessie: “I really hope Gabi’s wrong but with her track record I really don’t think she is. I think you’re misinterpreting Gabi’s words/advice for you based on the last convo I had with her a few days ago. I reallyy think you should talk to her again. I’m not saying she’s God and knows all, but she has certainly been right about most of her readings thus far.”
Naturally, the comment sections exploded with theories: Is Gabi a psychic? A medium? A life coach? Even Miranda McWhorter’s ex-husband, Chase McWhorter, jumped into the comments, writing, “Don’t even get me started with Gabi lmao.” The video creator immediately pressed him for details — “Like spill the tea Chase… then maybe we can be friends” — but Chase wasn’t having it. His blunt response: “Have Gabi keep my name out of her mouth first babe.”
Thanks to some speedy TikTok sleuthing, fans quickly tracked down the woman in question. A creator named @gabi__peguero posted a video lip-syncing to a popular sound saying, “I will no longer be carrying photo ID, people should know who I am,” with the on-screen text reading, “When you’re the ‘Gabi’ from SLOMW’s text messages.” Her caption? “Never thought channeling would lead me to reality TV 😅”

Her Instagram profile — followed by both Demi and Jessi — identifies her as a “subconscious coach” who specializes in channeling and intuitive guidance. According to her website, her sessions dive into something called the Akashic Library: “In this 60-minute channeling session, we’ll journey into your personal Akashic Library: the energetic record of your past, present, and future. Prepare to awaken forgotten wisdom, rediscover your purpose, and receive guidance from the unseen realms that walk beside you.”
fallout remains a mystery, but one thing is certain: the SLOMW universe just got a whole lot more mystical. And while it’s still unclear if she really is the infamous Gabi that Demi and Jessi are referring to, it’s definitely interesting that the SLOMW are seemingly turning to the spiritual for guidance in their personal lives.
