The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 1 ended with a lot of drama, more than what viewers might have expected. This goes back to 2022 when the leader of the #MomTok, Taylor Frankie Paul, exposed the scandalous secret of the Mormon wives.
She revealed in a livestream that the Mormon wives, who have been sharing a decent life on social media, are not so decent, including her. Despite being members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, these Mormon influencers took part in a soft-swinging s*x scandal.
Following a soft-swinging lifestyle means an individual is allowed to have s*xual interactions outside their marriage, but aren't allowed for intercourse. Frankie Paul violated the rule of this agreement, leading to the end of her first marriage.
Since she was the group leader, Frankie revealed that all other women in the #MomTok group were involved in this scandal. The internet was flooded with criticism and backlash, as netizens couldn't believe the Mormon influencers would do such a thing.
Hulu's The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 1 focuses on these women, describing the effect of following a soft-swinging lifestyle. The women also opened up about how this scandal ruined their love lives, earning them immense backlash.
