The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 4 dropped on Hulu today, and, unsurprisingly, MomTok has delivered another 10 episodes of jaw-dropping drama, petty revenge, and content you can’t look away from. Returning to the show are stars Taylor Frankie Paul, Whitney Leavitt, Mayci Neeley, Mikayla Matthews, Jessi Draper, Layla Taylor, Jen Affleck, and Miranda Hope, while Demi Engemann‘s role has been reduced to a “friend of.” With some women taking on other career ventures and others daring to be friends with the enemy, will MomTok survive Season 4? Light spoilers ahead!
Opening Shot: Season 3 ended with Taylor on a date with Miranda’s ex-husband, Chase McWhorter, during which he suggested they kiss like old times (Chase and Miranda were one of the couples Taylor and her ex-husband used to soft-swing with). When Season 4 picks up, Taylor and Chase seem like the best of friends — but, according to Taylor, that’s all they are. While Chase would date the MomTok creator in a heartbeat, she seems happy to keep him in the friend zone, and footage from their date proves as much by showing that Taylor declined his proposition to make things more intimate.
The Gist: There’s a lot going on with MomTok in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 4. Taylor is gearing up to be the next lead on The Bachelorette, Whitney and Jen are competing on Dancing with the Stars, Mayci is promoting her new memoir, Mikayla is still working through her intimacy issues with her husband, Jessi and Jordan Ngatikaura are figuring out whether they want to make their marriage work, Miranda is navigating a tricky situation with Taylor after her friend hooks up with Dakota, and Layla is kickstarting her career in the modeling industry. The women are booked and busy! Even Demi, who only appears in the first three episodes before she quits the show, seems to be launching a music career in light of her drama with Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette.
What Shows Will It Remind You Of? I’ve said it once (or thrice) before, and I’ll say it again. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives feels like the love child of Teen Mom and The Real Housewives of Salt Lake City.
Our Take: There’s a reason why Hulu is giving us two seasons of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives every year, and that’s because this show is top-tier reality television. For four seasons, Taylor, Whitney, Mikayla, Mayci, Layla, Miranda, Jen, Demi, and Jessi have been giving cameras unfiltered access to their lives, no holds barred. They’ve opened up about their traumas, like sexual assault and eating disorders; their relationships, like Jessi’s affair and Mikayla’s intimacy issues; and even their cosmetic surgeries, like Taylor getting her boobs redone in Season 4 and Jessi getting her vagina reconstructed in Season 1. These women, no matter how big they’ve become in the cultural zeitgeist, have maintained true to themselves through all the fame and attention — and the fact that they are still, after four seasons, able to outdo previous iterations without feeling over-produced or inauthentic is a feat to be applauded.
Regarding the drama this season, my only gripe is how much screen time DadTok was given. I don’t care to watch Jordan get even with Jessi by going on Vanderpump Villa, nor do I care to see him meddle in Layla’s new relationship. Not to mention, the fact that Dakota is menacing his way around town, doing everything he can to get a rise out of Taylor to prove she still cares about him, seems like a form of emotional abuse in and of itself. Continuing to give these men a platform outside of being supporting characters in their wives’ lives is erasing the mission statement of MomTok, which was to break free from the patriarchy and societal norms set forth by their Mormon upbringings.
But, that aside, Season 4 was another banger. Whitney finally not being painted as a villain was something I, as a longtime Whitney stan, have been waiting to see for a while. Hearing Mikayla continue to open up about her sexual trauma and Layla speak about her eating disorder/GLP-1 abuse were the types of raw, vulnerable moments that people cling to and relate to. And Taylor working through her daddy issues was not something I expected to happen this season, nor did I think she’d bring her guitar-playing crush onto the show, but leave it to Taylor to surprise us all. Getting to follow along on their journeys has been a wild ride, and so long as they keep pumping out seasons like this, the reality TV junkie in me will be forever grateful.
Sex and Skin: Taylor and Dakota do sleep together a couple of times this season, and Layla walks in on a naked Dakota, though nothing is shown in front of cameras.
Parting Shot: Once again, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives has left us on another cliffhanger. In Episode 10, Taylor misses her flight to Los Angeles to start filming The Bachelorette, not only because she’s sick but because she spent her last night in Utah with Dakota. When she arrives to LA and FaceTimes her baby daddy, he tells her to save a rose for him, teasing the dreaded possibility that he might show up at the Bachelor Mansion and whisk her away from all of those eligible young suitors. The episode ends with Jessi’s annual Halloween party, during which Dakota reveals that Taylor’s period was late and that she might be pregnant, though he wouldn’t know because her phone was confiscated going into The Bachelorette.
Sleeper Star: Season 4’s sleeper star is going to Whitney. Like a Phoenix rising from the ashes, Whitney’s time in the spotlight has been nothing short of entertaining — and getting to watch her go from the show’s “villain” to young Hollywood starlet is the kind of evolution we love to see in reality television.
Most Pilot-y Line: “We thought it would be funny to make a TikTok because him and I like to get under people’s skin and joke.” Taylor says this in Episode 1 when she’s talking about her reconciled friendship with Chase, though it conveniently foreshadows the way she handles future drama within her friend group. We love a petty queen!
Our Call: STREAM IT. If you’ve gotten this far into the MomTok lore, there’s no turning back now.
