Reality Show Shines Spotlight on Utah’s Swinging Mormon Momfluencers
Hulu is set to premiere The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives this September, a reality show that delves into the lives of glamorous influencer moms whose faith and friendships were shattered by a viral couple-swapping scandal. Produced by the team behind Netflix’s My Unorthodox Life, the series follows a group of Mormon momfluencers who became embroiled in controversy after Utah TikTok star Taylor Paul disclosed her involvement in a "soft swinging" lifestyle with fellow couples.
The scandal erupted in 2022 when Paul admitted to breaking the cardinal rule of soft swinging, ultimately leading to her divorce from Tate Paul, the father of her two children. The revelation caused a rift among the group, with many distancing themselves from her amidst the fallout. While specific cast details remain vague, all participants boast substantial social media followings, numbering in the hundreds of thousands across platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
The anticipation builds as the series promises to explore themes of faith, friendship, and the struggle for acceptance in a community under scrutiny. Among the cast are Demi Engemann, Whitney Leavitt, and Layla Wessel, who have already started to leverage their reality TV fame through group social media engagements.
Taylor’s turbulent journey goes beyond the scandal; she faced legal issues stemming from a domestic dispute that led to her arrest last year. Despite the controversies, Taylor has found love again with real estate agent Dakota Mortensen and welcomed a baby boy earlier this year, aiming to rebuild her life.
All six episodes of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives will be available for streaming on Hulu starting September 6. The show promises a riveting glimpse into a rarely seen side of the Mormon lifestyle, intertwining elements of personal tragedy and community challenges.
