The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Ngatikaura is opening up about her marriage struggles with husband Jordan Ngatikaura — and fans will see every emotional moment unfold in Season 3 of the hit Hulu reality series, which premiered November 13.
During the Season 2 finale, Jessi faced explosive allegations that she had an affair with Vanderpump Villa cast member Marciano Brunette. Since then, she’s stopped wearing her wedding ring and changed her last name back to her maiden name on social media.
“You see all of [the drama] play out in season 3,” Jessi told Good Morning America in November 2025. “You see more dynamics in my marriage that were kind of hidden before.”
Jessi and Jordan’s Marriage Is “Tricky”
Jordan has not publicly commented on the cheating rumors, though in the Season 3 trailer he appeared to reference Brunette, saying, “If I ever cross paths with him, I’m gonna deck him in the face.”
Meanwhile, Jessi admitted things have been tense at home. “I will say that reality TV is hard on any relationship, whether it’s a friendship or a marriage. And we’ve been through a lot, and now it’s gonna be public,” she said on *The Viall Files*. “We’re working through things, and we’re trying our best, but things are a little tricky right now.”
She added, “I’m excited to hopefully someday share more about that. But right now, it’s a little bit it’s just real life, and it’s hard.”
When asked if Jordan was “a good role model for the men that your daughter should look for in a husband,” Jessi gave a surprisingly candid response: “No,” she said. “I think that there’s been a lot that’s happened, and I think that he and I are both willing to work on things and change. But maybe he should be asked that question because that might wake him up.”
He Works in Solar Energy
Jordan currently works as a manager at the solar company Rise Energy in Lehi, Utah, a role he’s held since 2021.
He’s a College Graduate
He attended Utah Valley University, where he earned a degree in marketing in 2017.
He’s Part of ‘DadTok’
Like his wife’s MomTok community, Jordan has his own group — DadTok — where he posts lighthearted TikToks with other Mormon Wives husbands, including Dakota Mortensen, Bret Engemann, and Jace Terry.
He and Jessi Married in 2020
The couple tied the knot on October 8, 2020, after getting engaged earlier that year. They share one son together, Jagger Zayn, and also raise children from previous relationships.
