\n\t\t<\/h3>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n\t\t\tThe Secret Lives of Mormon Wives fans have watched the cast change on and off screen before the series even debuted. Season 1 of hit reality series, which follows a group of Mormon mom influencers, debuted on Hulu in September 2024 following star Taylor Frankie Paul\u2018s \u201csoft swinging\u201d sex scandal. \u201cWe\u2019re not all swingers,\u201d Whitney [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\u201cThe pregnancy test roulette tho,\u201d read a response from a viewer. Layla replied, \u201cWasn\u2019t my idea.\u201d<\/p>\n
Before the episodes were released, Demi spoke exclusively to Us Weekly<\/em> about her fertility, saying, \u201cEven throughout season 1, I was like, \u2018Is this for me?\u2019 Even going into filming season 1, it was a big decision. You think that if you were presented with this opportunity, it would just be an easy yes and jump all in. In my stage of life blending a family, trying for another baby and being a busy mom and wife and trying to navigate that \u2014 it\u2019s different than being single and then being presented with this opportunity.\u201d<\/p>\n\n![\"Mormon](\"data:image\/svg+xml;charset=utf-8,%3Csvg)
<\/div>Hulu\/Disney\/ Courtesy Everett Collection<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\nDemi said the \u201cstakes are higher\u201d<\/a> for her. \u201cYou have less time and you\u2019re not only putting yourself out there to be judged \u2014 but you are putting your family out there as well,\u201d she added. \u201cIt was not a decision that I took lightly or that me and my husband took lightly. So there were definitely moments throughout moments where we were just like, \u2018Is this for us?’\u201d<\/p>\nThe second season also brought up a rumor that Demi\u2019s husband, Bret, 46, was unfaithful after<\/a> Mayci received an anonymous message on social media claiming he slept with someone when Demi was out of town.<\/p>\n\u201cThe truth always reveals itself. Until there is proof, I don\u2019t give it any credit or any weight. I don\u2019t understand why something that is not true would bother you so deeply,\u201d Demi told Bret on camera, as he replied, \u201cI need to worry less about optics.\u201d<\/p>\n
A hot-mic moment, however, teased more tension between Demi<\/a> and Bret.<\/p>\n\n
