What to know about the cheating drama involving Demi and Jessi from 'Mormon Wives' and 'Vanderpump Villa' star Marciano
" The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" season two ended on a major cliffhanger when Marciano from "Vanderpump Villa" accused the MomToker Jessi of cheating on her husband with him. The drama then spilled over onto social media, where Demi called Marciano a "sexual predator" after he said he wasn't let into a Hulu event for reality stars. Here's what to know about the drama involving Jessi, Marciano, and, Demi. Marciano flirted unashamedly with Demi on "Vanderpump Villa." Season two of " Vanderpump Villa," where reality stars work in luxurious hotel pop-ups owned by Lisa Vanderpump of "Vanderpump Rules," sees Jessi, Demi, Jen, Layla, and Mikayla of "Mormon Wives" staying in one of the hotels in Italy. Marciano, one of the servers, tries to flirt with Demi and kisses her on the side of her head as they hug in episode four. Referring to the hotel, in the season two reunion Marciano says he and Demi "had a strong attraction in the castle that led to something outside the hotel" but that "Demi was not the only person that I was interested in." Hannah from "Vanderpump Villa" responds: "so then you went for her best friend." Marciano declines to explain further, saying the truth will be revealed on "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives." Marciano says on "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" season two that he had sex with Jessi. Whether Demi and Bret cheated on each other is a key storyline in "Mormon Wives" season two, which premiered on May 15 and was filmed after "Vanderpump Villa." In episode two, Jen accuses Demi of cheating by flirting with Marciano on the crossover show. And in episode three, Mayci says someone anonymously contacted her on Instagram to claim that they slept with Bret. Demi and Bret deny the accusations, but their costars begin to doubt them by the end of the season. In episode seven, Zac, Jen's husband, tells Whitney, another MomToker, that Demi threatened to get a cease-and-desist order to stop Jen and others from talking about what happened on the "Vanderpump Villa" trip. Demi denied this in an interview with Entertainment Tonight published May 16. In the final scene of season two, Marciano tells Layla that he misinterpreted Demi's flirting, thinking she was attracted to him. Then Marciano drops the bombshell that he kissed and had sex with Jessi, and says that her husband, Jordan, doesn't know the full extent of the alleged affair. "It was not just a one-time hookup thing," Marciano says. The season three teaser shows that Jessi will discuss the scandal with Layla and her husband in future episodes. The revelation seemingly comes out of nowhere, but in episode six, the MomTokers ask Jessi about rumors that she kissed Marciano at a party at a bar in Hollywood, which she denies. On May 16, a day after season two was released, Jessi shared a post on Instagram and TikTok captioned: "I'll speak when I can." The next day, Layla wrote on TikTok and Instagram: "can't wait for more, lots left out after editing. Lots of truth to come out." Demi called Marciano a "sexual predator," sparking a new argument on social media. Ahead of the season, fans began noticing the tension between the MomTokers and Marciano. On April 22, Marciano posted a video on Instagram captioned: "Uninvited to the function cus a 30yo Mormon wife's scared I'll tell the husband the truth." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Marciano (@marcianob) That was the night that Hulu hosted its "Get Real" event for reality show contestants in LA. Fans thought Marciano was referring to Demi, who responded in the comment section of a "Mormon Wives" fan account: "Grown men acting like a child cause they couldn't bag a woman that was beyond out of their league and MARRIED 🤮 <<< the clout chasing is on another level." She later wrote: "Also he got uninvited by @hulu because he's a s3xual pr3dator that can't keep his hands to himself, not because I'm hiding anything from my husband. He's a lying clout chaser. @marcianob hope your 15 min of fame is worth it, you're pathetic." In the comment section of a separate post by "Mormon Wives" fan account, Zac wrote: "I like this seat much better @jenniferlaffleck." Jen added: "S3xual pr3dator?? It's interesting considering she was FaceTiming him a week later, inviting him to dinner." View this post on Instagram A post shared by Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives! (@secretlivesmormonwives) Vulture reported in April that Jessi wrote in a since-deleted comment under a post by the same fan account that "the truth will always come out" and that the assault allegation was "not true." Vulture reported that Demi posted on her Instagram story on April 25 that any unwanted physical touch is assault and criticized her costars for calling her a liar, saying they were aware of what happened. Appearing on the Viall Files podcast on May 15, Demi said she told her costars that she got "groped, sexually assaulted" while filming "Vanderpump Villa" after they left the hotel. Demi said she asked them to swear not to tell anyone about the alleged assault and let her handle it. She added that Jessi broke her trust by telling Scheana from "Vanderpump Rules" about the alleged assault two weeks later. The drama could explain why Demi no longer following her costars Taylor, Layla, Jessi, and Jen on Instagram. Layla, Taylor, and Jen follow Demi, but Jessi follows all the members of MomTok except for Demi. Demi said on the "Viall Files" podcast that Jessi blocked her. A representative for Hulu, Demi, Marciano, Jessi, Layla, and Jen did not immediately respond to a comment request from Business Insider.

Jessi Responds to Marciano Affair Claims on Secret Lives of Mormon Wives
Gather round, everyone who's already watched The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 2. We have some questions. Specifically questions about the bombshell allegations that were dropped in the last few moments of the show, when Layla Taylor sat down with Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette. Some background: Several members of the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast made an appearance on Vanderpump Villa, and there was speculation that Jessi Ngatikaura and Marciano formed a connection and were spotted making out in West Hollywood. Jessi denied this on the show, saying "If I was dumb enough to do that, I wouldn't do it in public." However, Marciano then alleged to Layla that he and Jessi had slept together and had an ongoing affair. While Jessi hasn't dropped a formal statement, she recently hopped on Instagram and TikTok to share the below video—captioning it "I'll speak when I can" and "that ending though." Several of Jessi's fellow SLOMW stars have supported her, including Layla who reposted the video and wrote "So proud of Jess and how she's handling all the noise. That [meet] up with Marciano was the opposite of what I expected, and I can't wait for the truth to be shown. I love you Jess." As for where Jessi and her husband, Jordan, stand, things seem totally fine based on him dropping a Mother's Day tribute earlier this month, writing "Your strength, your softness, and the way you show up for them every single day is nothing short of beautiful" and "Through all of life's ups and downs, I still choose you. I still love you every single day."

Weather records (from the National Weather Service, Chicago) Flashback: At a time when immigrants were feared, Chicago's Hull House nurtured the lives of the foreign-born1903: An improved law for the regulation of child labor was passed by the General Assembly. Under provisions of the act, Illinois was the first state to establish an eight-hour workday and a 48-hour workweek for children. It went into effect on July 1, 1903. 1953: Rocky Marciano, making his first defense of his heavyweight title, scored a first-round knockout at Chicago Stadium over Jersey Joe Walcott, the man Marciano dethroned in a 13th-round KO the previous September. The fight attracted a crowd of 13,266 and a gate of $331,795. Marciano's purse was $76,038 plus $90,000 from TV. 1960: Don Cardwell, pitching his first game as a Cub, threw a no-hit victory over the St. Louis Cardinals at Wrigley Field. Outfielder Walt 'Moose' Moryn saved the no-hitter when he made a slick running catch of Joe Cunningham's sinking line drive for the final out. Jack Brickhouse called the last out this way: 'Low sinking liner. Come on, Moose! He's got it!' 1969: The Young Lords, a civil rights group comprising Puerto Rican, Black and Latino youth, took over the administration building of McCormick Theological Seminary, 800 Belden Ave., Chicago, and demanded $601,000 from the venerable Lincoln Park institution. Most of the intruders sported the berets that then marked radical activists. They ejected a few seminarians who were pulling all-nighters, chained the doors shut and hung a banner over them announcing that 800 W. Belden Ave. was now the address of the 'Manuel Ramos Memorial Building.' José 'Cha-Cha' Jiménez, founder of political group formed from Lincoln Park Puerto Rican gang, dies at 76Ramos, a member of the Young Lords, had been shot and killed on May 4 that year by an off-duty police officer during a controversial encounter.

Daley and the American people, 'America Windows,' at the Art Institute of Chicago. Chagall donated the design as a gift to Chicago for the warm welcome Daley gave him during a visit in 1974. Chagall also gave Daley a warm response in 1974 — a kiss. 1996: Chicago White Sox left fielder Tony Phillips punched a heckling Brewers fan outside the left-field bleachers in Milwaukee. The 23-year-old fan allegedly had been making disparaging remarks about his mother. After listening to it for a few innings, Phillips took matters into his own hands and removed himself from the game after the top of the sixth inning to confront the fan. Phillips told a couple of players about his plan as he left the dugout. 'He's going past Bevington and says, 'You need another left fielder,' ' former Sox third baseman Robin Ventura recalled. 'I followed him up to the clubhouse, and by the time I got up there, he had his clothes on and his leather jacket and was going out into the concourse. I was like, 'What are you doing?'' Phillips was taken to an area police station on a misdemeanor battery charge and released. The charges against Phillips were dropped, but the American League fined him $5,000 for the incident. He died of a heart attack at 56 in February 2016. 'Few athletes were as fun to interview as Phillips, who once took the tape recorder from my hand and just interviewed himself,' Tribune columnist Paul Sullivan wrote in 2020. 'I covered him for only one season on the South Side, but we kept in touch well after his 18-year career ended in 1999.' 2006: Anish Kapoor's 'Cloud Gate' was dedicated in Millennium Park. Better known by its nickname the Bean, the art installation was completed two years after it was first unveiled at more than twice its estimated cost.
