"Those secret lives are not looking so secret anymore. Hulu's favorite hit reality show, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, just put out the trailer for its upcoming fourth season. In it, the titular wives are long past those early days of chatting about Mormonism, dirty sodas, and soft swinging. "Everything," cast member Mayci Neeley says, "has just been blowing up." For starters: Taylor Frankie Paul will spend the season prepping to star in the next season of The Bachelorette. In the meantime, she's having boys over and disregarding her ex, Dakota Mortensen."
""Taylor does things to see if she can have control over me," Mortensen claims. The other cast members are still Mormon enough to judge her for her ( gasp) promiscuity. Jessi Ngatikaura, while wearing a Playboy Bunny costume, asks, "Is she gonna be a pregnant Bachelorette?" The rest of the women have stuff going on too. The show promises to follow Whitney Leavitt and Jennifer Affleck as they approach Dancing With the Stars; Mayci as she promotes her book, Told You So; and Layla Taylor as she models."
The trailer for season four shows the cast coping with widespread fame and expanding public profiles. The women have moved beyond informal conversations about Mormonism and small scandals to major career opportunities and increased scrutiny. Taylor Frankie Paul prepares to star on The Bachelorette while juggling casual relationships and tensions with her ex, Dakota Mortensen. Castmates voice judgment and speculate about pregnancy, reflecting persistent cultural expectations. Other cast members pursue high-profile endeavors: Whitney Leavitt and Jennifer Affleck aim for Dancing With the Stars, Mayci Neeley promotes her book Told You So, and Layla Taylor models. Pressure mounts amid rising visibility.
