Hulu’s reality show about ‘soft-swinging’ Mormon TikTok influencers in Utah is heating up after cameras started rolling for the show’s second season last month.
Not only is the cast of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives already at war on social media, now previously unseen footage of star Taylor Frankie Paul hooking up with another soft-swinging momfluencer has emerged online.
The MomTok sex scandal first came to light in May 2022 when Taylor, a member of the group, revealed on TikTok that she, now ex-husband Tate, and other couples in Salt Lake City had swapped sexual partners without having penetrative sex at drunken parties.
The group, along with Taylor’s marriage, imploded after she and another husband fell in love and broke the strict soft-swinging rule of not having full intercourse.
While most members of the group have remained anonymous and stayed out of the spotlight, one member, Makenna Gibbons, decided to out herself over the weekend by going public on TikTok and share her experience with the group.
In a series of videos, Makenna said that she was ‘ashamed’ to have ever participated in the swinging and said that it led to her divorcing her now ex-husband, who she claimed had an ‘affair’ with one of the wives in the group.
While Makenna never named the other wife in the video, Taylor soon outed herself by addressing the claims – on top of sharing outrageous footage of the two of them kissing.
‘She never asked to stop, she was one of the instigators and sent her husband to get me, but tell your side sis,’ Taylor wrote on TikTok.

The mom-of-three followed it up with a video of herself and Makenna kissing passionately, followed by another photo of Taylor, Makenna, and Makenna’s ex-husband all together.
She also posted an old text message from Makenna that read, ‘I’m drunk and I wish I was kissing you.’
In another video, Taylor said that Makenna ‘did enjoy it’ and ‘never wanted it to stop.’
While Taylor battles with Makenna online, she’s also at odds with many of her Secret Lives of Mormon Wives castmates.
Taylor had a huge falling out with Jessi Ngatikaura, Demi Engemann, and Mikayla Matthews following her appearance at the Country Music Awards in Nashville last week.
The feud was sparked when Taylor, who was invited to attend the show and walk the red carpet, took to social media to complain that her castmates hadn’t commented on her CMAs post.
‘Not a single one of my girls from Momtok said anything on my CMA post,’ she wrote.
She added that it was ‘awkward’ because it was ‘such a big night for me.’

Jessi, Demi, and Mikayla then clapped back, posting screenshots to show that they had either posted Taylor on their Instagram Stories or privately texted her to show their support.
The drama snowballed from there as the women argued back and forth on social media, before both Taylor said that she would no longer be friends with them moving forward.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives was officially renewed for a second season in early October, with the whole original cast returning.
Since its premiere on Hulu on September 6, the show has proven to be a blockbuster success with viewers and even beat The Kardashians in the ratings.
Its storyline revolves around #MomTok, a group of Mormon influencers who were plunged into a sex scandal when one of them revealed she was a swinger – and hinted some of the others may have been as well.
Sparks flew between the members of the principal cast, which was made up of Jen Affleck, Demi Engemann, Whitney Leavitt, Mikayla Matthews, Mayci Neeley, Jessi Ngatikaura, Taylor Frankie Paul and Layla Taylor.
The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives was recently ranked the number-one unscripted show on Hulu, with the streamer’s biggest premiere behind The Kardashians.
DailyMail.com has contacted Taylor, Makenna, and her ex-husband for comment.
