Going Deeper w/ The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives - Jen, Jessi, Demi, Layla, Mikayla, and Mayci

[@joam8300]

Love the show Nick HOWEVER it is very weird to me that Layla and Jessi were out of frame and not spoken to for most of the show??? Why couldn't the other co-host go sit with them? For getting such popular, highly talked about guests, this was an extremely poorly thought out setup.

Nick should have actually rented a larger studio for this interview

Or split it into part 1. And part 2.. either way I agree. All the women talked over each other.. and the two who were barely show 😅 weird

[@angiewashere2]

Yes or even remove the two side tables next to the large table so everyone could be in frame

[@Crashlee11]

This was the unofficial Mormon Wives Reunion. I got all the tea that I could ever want from this episode. I can’t believe how much they spilled about other people 😅

[@Steph-412]

I agree, except I need clarification on one thing: It was said the swinging couples ran every base BUT home. If that were the case, why would Taylor's husband be worried about getting the girls pregnant? Females can't get pregnant from a beejay.. So this is basically a rhetorical statement lol. 🫣

[@heathercschafer]

You’re on point! This is the reunion we didn’t get to see!

[@saltymilspouse]

Jen has now found out that Zac’s family is most definitely not onboard. They refer to her as ‘Zac’s wife’ on social media and of course it’s HULU that has ‘ruined’ their family. Zac chose to send disgusting texts to the mother of his child and his family blames her and Hulu. GTFO. Mayci really is the epitome of a Christlike love.

[@dogologyaz5625]

Jen is so deep in denial is tragic. Blaming Hulu and the edit is wild, plus also saying he’s improved without any recognition of his behavior, professional help, etc is crazy! He’s now gaslit about how everything is better. She’s completely delusional.

[@loto159]

The more I see from Mayci the more I'm convinced she's on the show to convert people

[@Michele-bm1zu]

I've never watched the show so I don't know anything other than this interview but it actually broke my heart listening to hear her attempt to defend her husband & her relationship for far too long 😢 I understand because I've been there. You love them, you remember the great times, see the best in them & don't want a failed relationship. But no woman wants to constantly have to defend their man's actions. She's embarrassed. She's constantly told she deserves better and she's probably afraid to bring him around friends & family because of his unpredictable emotions or need to cover everything up to make things appear "okay". I won't pretend to know if she's actually happy or not but I've been there & can relate to feeling like you need to walk on egg shells to blanket their feelings.

[@jasminevilla4773]

Makayla reminding mayci how bad of a friend Whitney is to her was my fav part

[@robertstanley9633]

Makayla and Layla have been the breakout stars lately.

[@jillianmelendez2709]

Confused as to how you talked about Demi and her husbands age gap but didn’t address Mikayla giving birth at 16 with her husband who was 21 at the time 👀

[@LouisesMagicalLife]

I thought this too! Wouldn’t surprise if Mikayla said in advance she wouldn’t talk about it

[@sophieindiana]

@@LouisesMagicalLifeshe may have set a boundary that she won’t speak of her marriage publicly ! and that is okay.

[@hannahfort7608]

probably because Demi and her husband are adults in a healthy, loving marriage and the age gap is part of her “brand”. it isn’t a sore subject. asking Mikayla about her and an ex with an actual questionable age gap, that involves her child, and that she hasn’t herself addressed..is quite different

[@The_crazy_kids-12345]

No ex, Mikayla is still married to him

[@hannahfort7608]

@@The_crazy_kids-12345 even more the reason 😅 they’re not going to ask if she thinks her husband and active father to her child was pedophilic, as they shouldn’t..and no, she obviously is okay and at peace with it considering they’re still married. honestly, not an abnormal age gap either until recently, and even still possibly currently in their Mormon culture?

[@Liciaromero]

I agree with Demi, Whitney is being the villain on purpose. You can tell by the way she’s taking the heat from everyone. She’s so proud.

[@Alexiax13]

Definitely! She’s so proud to be the villain. She’s taking “bad publicity is still publicity” to the max.

[@theashleylindley]

Jen, a 10/10 both inside and out husband expects her to to cook, clean, raise the kids on her own, 'respect' him as the 'leader' - AND PAY FOR EVERYTHING. What does she get out of this relationship other than shame, fear, embarrassment? He breaks her down because he knows she'd be better off without him. I hope she gets out of there while she still has that sunshine inside her....

[@all_that_glitters13131]

This is why you need to raise strong women. This girl has no idea who she is. It all comes down to how much her husband loves her. It's so sad. She is being used and manipulated and she has no idea. She lacks self esteem 😢

[@PlaceBoFXxo]

Exactly, she's worth so much as a person and he needs to see that or she should leave.

[@sarahmauricio9699]

Not sure about inside. She literally kicked her mom out of her house after she was done using her to help with the kids WHILE she was charging her rent at the same time. Not to mention allowing her husband’s family look down on her.

[@TinaN-c8v]

Isn’t she supporting them while he’s in medical school? I can only hope he takes care of her and his family when it’s his turn.

[@emilydevilliers]

I really hope Nick reads these comments and recognises the clear exclusion of Layla and Jessi in this interview.

[@katan0625]

Nick: “Picture Whitney coming to you.. you just met… and eventually she says ‘if you need to bury a body I’ll help you’ and you’re thinking *we just met* … and she only says that because she wants to know if you’d help her bury a body. That’s the vibe I get from Whitney” That is so insanely accurate 😂

[@monikleite9531]

It’s all fake. They aren’t fighting

[@RealityTvLover]

@@monikleite9531do tell. I want to hear more. Is Taylor’s relationship really rocky or no?? I assume it is rocky and toxic ., sadly .

[@kristinakay297]

I don’t think there’s anything there. I think Whitney is actually who they portray her to be on the show in real life and the girls accept that. If you listen to other pod casts you might pick up on this vibe too.

I have to give it to Mayci. She’s seems like the type of person who is genuinely the same to your face as she is behind your back. Props to her for not giving into peer pressure, regardless of how close of a friend Whitney is or isn’t, it’s nice to see someone standing up for those who aren’t present to speak for themselves. You don’t have to love the person or 100% agree with them to be a true girls girl.

[@Baqota]

Whitney is shocked because one of the main attributes of a narcissist is that they lack self awareness and have very little ability to self reflect on their own behavior.

[@psychedoutslick1204]

I think she leans more towards borderline personality disorder, the way she perceives rejection, splitting everything as all good or all bad, manipulating people, and attention seeking behavior.

[@Baqota]

@@psychedoutslick1204 I’m only armchair expert diagnosing, but I think if she had borderline, she wouldn’t be doing the behaviors she does where she ghosts people and disappears. I think the main character trait of BPD is a fear of being abandoned, whether it’s real or perceived. They get desperate if they think someone is pulling away. If she had BPD, I don’t think she’d be able to tolerate not going to to all those activities she chose to miss, and I don’t think she would be capable of voluntarily opting out of things like the Vegas trip. She’d also be more likely to be bombing the group chats with texts as opposed to leaving the group chat. Those are just some example off the top of my head.

[@crookedlines]

The way Whitney is portrayed in the show really aligns with borderline personality disorder. I feel like no one is talking about the possibility of psychiatric illness, and that’s really unfortunate. It’s not to say that BPD (or any dx) excuses a person’s actions, but it is still a very important part of the picture, and it should definitely be taken into account when evaluating a friendship (although it doesn’t seem like any of these women are truly friends). Disclaimer: I’m trained in this area, but no one can dx someone through a TV show; a BPD dx would need a psychiatric evaluation (at bare minimum).

No, sin is what is deemed wrong action in your religion. Each religion has different definition. What you consider wrong vs what that religion consider sin is different
