Mormon wives on swinging scandals, friendship fallouts and religious backlash
From allegations of infidelity to swinging scandals, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives offers a look into a version of Mormon life far removed from traditional public perception.
Set in suburban Utah, the TV series follows a group of Mormon women – most of whom rose to fame on TikTok and became MomTok influencers – as they manage scandals, confront marital breakdowns and clash over everything from business ventures to party invitations.
But beneath the sensational plotlines is a more complex story about the evolving dynamics within a tight-knit community.
The group of Mormon mothers have been making content online for the past five years but say the concept of reality TV still feels very new to them.
"I've heard that eventually people learn how to play the reality TV game but that's not us yet, we're still trying to figure it out," Jessi Ngatikaura tells the BBC. "So you're getting to see the real us."
What started off as a hobby has now become a job and the women speak openly on the show about the amount of money they make from reality TV and brand deals.
"It is totally our job now but we chose this and we could all walk away any time if we didn't want to be part of it," Jessi says.
Whitney Leavitt explains that "naturally dynamics will change when there's more money and family involved and definitely some people get competitive" but reassures me the group are still friends off camera.
Across the two seasons of the show, Jessi and Whitney have had challenging storylines play out - Whitney is presented as the villain in season one and at the end of season two it is alleged Jessi has had an affair.
The pair speak candidly about the impact having your life watched and commented on by millions of people worldwide has had on them.
"It's been hard coming to terms with the fact we have no control over the narrative and you don't ever really get over it," Whitney explains. "But you have to accept that and let it go."

As the show follows the lives of nine friends, it's easy to see how some of them may create more drama for themselves in order to guarantee some screen time but Jessi insists that's not the case and no one "plays up but naturally emotions are heightened".
"We're actually recording four or five days a week so we don't know what will make the final edit."
Jessi says her explosive Halloween party was not manufactured by producers and there is just "naturally so much drama that we don't need to create more just for the show".
