Several Secret Lives of Mormon Wives<\/em><\/a> couples have been going through some changes off camera \u2014 but where does each couple stand before season 6?<\/p>\n

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

Demi and Whitney have since exited the show<\/a> with their respective partners. The other couples have faced their fair share of ups and downs on screen \u2014 especially during season 5. The condensed season was released months after production was paused in May 2026 amid Taylor and Dakota\u2019s domestic dispute.<\/p>\n

Cameras picked back up again three months later<\/a> to check in with everyone before they started filming season 6. Keep scrolling to see where the other couples stand at the end of season 5:<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\tFor some The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives couples, going on a reality TV show made their marriage stronger \u2014 while others crumbled under the pressure. When Hulu debuted The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives in September 2024, viewers were introduced to Jen Affleck and husband Zac Affleck, Demi Engemann and husband Bret Engemann, Whitney [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen<\/h2>\n

Throughout the seasons, Taylor and Dakota were together off-and-on while coparenting their son, Ever. Season 5 documented the aftermath of Taylor leading The Bachelorette season 22, during which she got engaged to Doug Mason<\/strong><\/a>. In March, news broke that Mormon Wives halted production after Taylor and Dakota were involved in a domestic violence dispute while filming.<\/p>\n

They are currently not dating amid their legal back and forth.<\/p>\n

Jessi Draper and Jordan Ngatikaura<\/h2>\n

While viewers know that Jessi and Jordan are no longer together, season 5 showed the couple still trying to make things work weeks before their divorce filing. Those closest to Jessi, however, made it clear they didn\u2019t see her staying with Jordan for long.<\/p>\n

Jessi is now dating Vanderpump Villa\u2019<\/em>s Marciano Brunette<\/strong><\/a>, who made a brief cameo in the fifth season of Mormon Wives.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Whitney and Conner Leavitt<\/h2>\n

Whitney and Conner made minimal appearances in season 5. Their family of five appeared to be thriving after relocating to New York City for Whitney\u2019s Broadway run.<\/p>\n

Jen and Zac Affleck<\/h2>\n

The first season of Mormon Wives highlighted the challenges in Jen and Zac\u2019s marriage, which eventually led to an offscreen separation. They got back together before welcoming daughter Penelope in July 2025.<\/p>\n

Season 5 showed Jen and Zac at odds over her career choices, such as investing in music equipment and considering a photo shoot for Sports Illustrated. Jen admitted she was once again questioning her future with Zac, which came months before she announced her pregnancy with baby No. 4.<\/p>\n

Mikayla Matthews and Jace Terry<\/h2>\n

After welcoming their fourth baby, Mikayla and Jace decided to separate during season 4 of the hit Hulu series. Season 5 picked up with them back together after an offscreen reconciliation.<\/p>\n
