Jennifer and Zac Affleck are the most famous couple in Hulu's The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives as they both encounter a tough road ahead. Despite the challenges and Zac Affleck finding out about Jen's involvement in the MomTok soft-swinging scandal, the couple gave it all to make their marriage work.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 1 has finally concluded with fans curious about the reality TV series' next chapter. It follows the controversial MomTok group of eight Mormon women residing in Provo, Utah who made headlines over violating the rules of being the members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Their group leader Taylor Frankie Paul confessed during a livestream that the MomTok had a secret life nobody knows. Paul shared that her groupmates participated in the soft-swinging lifestyle that ultimately led to their lives falling apart.
Interestingly, Zac Affleck's wife Jennifer Affleck or Jen is one of the members of the MomTok, and The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives focused on their marriage being affected after the scandal came to light. However, the couple made sure they didn't end their five-year marriage over some conflicts and misunderstandings in the reality show and continues to live a happy life after filming the series for Hulu.
Jennifer and Zac Affleck's relationship in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives
Like every Mormon influencer in the MomTok, Jennifer Affleck also faced notable challenges when it came to her love life. Zac Affleck's actions and words in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives made it clear that he doesn't want Jen to get into activities that question their marriage.
As seen in the reality show, Chippendales is famous for male strippers, and the MomTok influencers were curious to explore the place in Las Vegas. Upon reaching Chippendales, Jen realized that the place was making her uncomfortable and she was bothered by her friends indulging in oil massage and other playful activities.
Jennifer Affleck knew that the show would disrespect her beliefs and marriage, so she decided to leave before the stripping show began. However, things had already turned wild between her and Zac, as he misunderstood his wife and sent a text that brought tears to Jen's eyes.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives featured the message Zac had sent to Jen after she informed him about the Chippendales show:
"Seriously, I don’t want to hear one more thing about your heart. Start taking accountability for your actions and for the situations you put yourself in. You’re a grown woman."
Zac also wrote that Jen's intentions didn't matter when she finally joined her friends for the show. He asked Jen to take responsibility and think of her actions as a Mormon wife and mother.
This was just one misunderstanding among many between Jen and Zac in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. While Zac was concerned about his admission to the medical school, Jen found it hard to stay away from her MomTok group members.
What did Jen and Zac Affleck do after The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?
The end of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives doesn't mean the end of Zac and Jennifer Affleck's marriage. The two have been living together for years and didn't let some misunderstanding ruin their relationship.
In an interview with the US Magazine, Jennifer Affleck opened up about problems in her marriage after the soft-swinging scandal and mentioned that Zac has been incredibly supportive of her. She said:
" I definitely think it was the best thing to happen to our relationship. While watching the show, a lot of people are going to think that maybe this would break our relationship apart. But if anything, it did the opposite."
The Momtok member also shared with the outlet:
"Is Zac perfect? No. Does he have flaws that we’ve needed to address? Yes. But I can confidently say he’s always supported and believed in me more than anyone else."
Jen Affleck revealed she and her husband sought therapies after filming The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and it has helped them a lot. Jen is active on her social media platforms and keeps updating about her life with Zac and raising two adorable kids.
Did Jennifer Affleck leave MomTok after relocating to New York City?
As seen in the finale of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, MomTok wasn't happy about Zac's influence on Jen when it comes to her connection with the group. In a conversation with Demi Engemann, cast member Jessi Ngatikaura revealed that Jen has been thinking of abandoning MomTok.
While Jen is concerned about her groupmates, she doesn't prioritize MomTok over her family. The couple decided to leave Utah for Zac's medical school, even though Jen is doubtful of business opportunities.
However, Jennifer Affleck didn't confirm that she has completely abandoned MomTok, and even hinted at The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 2 in which fans and viewers can expect to explore more about Jen and Zac's marriage.
