Someone is MISSING from the Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives reunion special
Hulu's popular reality series The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives delighted fans on Thursday with the announcement of a season two reunion.
The special, which will be hosted by the Bachelor Nation star Nick Viall on July 1, will be the first for the series, which didn't hold a reunion special after its first season.
But photos from the special taping reveal that it won't be a full reunion, as one key cast member wasn't featured in any of the photos.
Apparently missing from the reunion was series star Demi Engemann.
And it wasn't just Demi, but also her husband Bret Engemann, as he too was missing in a larger group photo featuring the women's husbands.
The reunion's announcement didn't include any hint about why Demi wasn't featured in the photos, or if she appeared at the reunion in any capacity.
Her absence comes after she was the center of multiple conflicts in the show's dramatic second season.
It's now unclear what her status is for the upcoming third season, and if she's set to return to The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives.
However, Demi has been present at publicity events promoting the series, which suggests that she wasn't done with the show as of just last month.
She was pictured on the red carpet in Los Angeles on May 9 when she attended the season two premiere.
Demi — who is part of the MomTok group of women Mormon influencers that comprise the main cast — was swept up in controversy recently when she and her costar Jessi Ngatikaura were both rumored to have carried on affairs with the Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette.
Demi went on to claim that 'nothing happened' with Marciano, and she said 'there wasn't even a remote attraction to him.'
Jessi — who recently gushed about her new 'designer vagina' — later revealed on The Viall Files that she and Demi were no longer friends.
But the controversy led fans to wonder if she would still be back for a third season, and her appearance at the season two premiere last year raised more questions than it answered
Fans wondered if Demi — who was painted as the show's villain — might have sent a coded message about her future at the season two premiere (pictured), as she wore white while all the other women wore shades of blue
The show's stars appeared to have made a coordinated appearance at the premiere, as eight of them were dressed in various shades of blue, from a dark navy to a pale powder blue.
But Demi was notably wearing a white long-sleeve satin minidress, which also happened to be the most revealing outfit of the stars thanks to its short skirt.
Demi hasn't commented on the reunion yet, but she did share a video excerpt of a Lucy Hale interview to her Instagram Stories in which she says, 'You're actually doing things right if people don't like you. When I have felt the most aligned in speaking my truth, like emanating my inner light, it triggers a lot of people. A couple of people online are like, "I don't believe her... phony." But it doesn't faze me.'
'👏👏👏 queen stuff,' she wrote over the video.
The Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives reunion special begins streaming July 1 on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+. Season two of the series is already streaming.
