‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Season 2 Reunion Announced
God (Hulu) has answered my prayers (angry demands). We're getting a Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 2 reunion. And the first look photos are already causing drama. Hulu announced the reunion on Thursday, June 5, less than a month after season 2 premiered. 'After a shocking end to season 2, host Nick Viall reunites all of #MomTok and #DadTok to uncover secrets and scandals, never-before-seen footage, and a surprise announcement in the first-ever reunion special for The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,' reads the press release. But who is 'all of #MomTok'? Based on the first look photos teasing the reunion, it looks like Taylor Frankie Paul, Jen Affleck, Jessi Ngatikaura, Layla Taylor, Mayci Neeley, Mikayla Matthews, Whitney Leavitt, and Miranda McWhorter will all be in attendance. As for their group nemesis Demi Engemann, she's nowhere in sight. Could this mean she's done with the show for good? Demi's absence shouldn't come as a huge shock. She stormed out of a #MomTok meeting in the season 2 finale after failing to kick Taylor out of the group, saying she needed a break. But is Demi really done with #MomTok, or could she return? Before you read too much into her absence, it's important to note that Whitney, who last we saw was newly voted back into #MomTok, is taking part in the reunion, as is Miranda, who has yet to be voted on at all. So it looks like despite her #MomTok status, Demi made a conscious choice to skip the event. Read into that what you will... Meanwhile, most of the #MomTok husbands and/or partners will also be participating. A sneak peek at the reunion shows six of the #DadTok members sitting in chairs behind the main cast, including Taylor's ex Dakota Mortensen, Mayci's husband Jacob Neely, Mikayla's husband Jace Terry, Jen's husband Zac Affleck, Whitney's husband Conner Leavitt, and Jessi's husband Jordan Ngatikaura. (That's one way to put those Jessi cheating rumors to bed!) Finally, the show will be hosted by Bachelor alum Nick Viall, who has had most of the cast on his podcast, The Viall Files. The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 2 reunion will air July 1 on Hulu. I will be seated.

Reality TV star Dakota opens up about addiction struggle: "Nobody got it"
Reality TV star Dakota is opening up about a highly personal and painful episode of his life—his addiction to drugs that started when he was only 17. In an open-ended interview on Nick Viall's The Viall Files podcast, Dakota took his listeners through the grueling beginnings of his use of substances, which began as a desire to relieve his aching knees as a young basketball player. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now "Had bad knees, and I recall being at a practice one time, and my knees were really hurting," Dakota explained. "I was at the gym, and a kid was in there working out or something. He was just one of my buddies, sort of. I was whining about my knees… and then he said, 'Oh, man, I have some pain pills.'" Not knowing what the pills were, Dakota took them—and the effect was transformative, but not in the way he would have imagined. "I went and practiced, and I recall that I had absolutely no pain. It was the greatest thing on earth," he explained. From there on, Dakota began going after more of the pills, which he later found out were prescription opioids. At first, he did not see what he was doing as risky. "It was a pill and I didn't see, I think, the bad side of that in that way," he said. But things moved fast. When he and a friend went back to get more pills, their dealer offered them an introduction to snorting the pills for greater effect. That grew into Oxycontin, and then, a friend asked him to smoke them off of tin foil—a turning point Dakota recognizes as key in his addiction. "That's when things really started to change." Dakota was working a construction job at the time, but the wages weren't sufficient to sustain his increasingly expensive drug habit. That's when heroin became an option. "Heroin was cheaper and more accessible," he suggested. "Eventually, I began robbing my parents and doing return scams on big box stores with my friends. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now I was spiraling. Dakota's addiction was not just impacting his individual life but also his most intimate relationships. He had been dating his high school sweetheart, who ended up becoming his wife. She knew about the struggles he had but had no clue on how bad things were. "She was aware of [the addiction], but she didn't realize it," Dakota said. "No one did. No one realized it. My family didn't realize it … She didn't know I was using heroin. She knew, [but] she didn't know how bad I really was." Dakota's tale is but one of many that illuminates the way a young life can easily slip into the hold of addiction—all from taking something as innocuous as a pain pill. His candor is a poignant reminder of how important awareness, support, and understanding are for individuals who are combating substance abuse. As Dakota continues to share his journey, he hopes others will learn from his experience and see that recovery begins with truth—and that even the darkest paths can lead to healing.

EXCLUSIVE The Valley's Jasmine Goode calls Nick Viall a 'clout chaser' after 'uncomfortable' moment on The Bachelor
The Valley star Jasmine Goode has broken her silence after Nick Viall quipped he wanted an 'apology' from her after their 'uncomfortable' moment during his season of The Bachelor. Goode, 37, shared her thoughts on the Viall Files podcast host in an exclusive interview with Before she joined the cast of Bravo's The Valley, a spin-off of Vanderpump Rules, Goode was a contestant on Viall's season of The Bachelor in 2017. At one point during the season, Goode confronted Viall about not getting a one-on-one date and shared her frustration by putting her hand on Viall's throat and playfully pretending to choke him. Viall reflected on the moment during a recent episode of his podcast The Viall Files, which he co-hosts with his now-wife Natalie Joy. 'I would love an apology from Jasmine,' Viall said during the May 29 episode, which also featured fellow The Valley star Janet Caperna. 'I'm still triggered.' 'All the jokes aside [on] the Jasmine strangling me thing… that did make me uncomfortable. There was a blackout moment,' Viall said. In response to his comments, Goode told that Viall is a 'clout chaser' and insisted that her pretending to choke him was simply a 'joke.' 'Nick is a clout chaser,' Goode claimed. 'He wants attention because I actually did his podcast when he first started out and we joked about it. He laughed about it.' 'Number two, I did not actually touch him. It was gesturing,' she continued. 'And number three, when you're in that situation, I was a sister wife, this is my man, you're dating, this is your boyfriend. 'I'm sorry, I'm from [New] Jersey. If I'm upset with you, like, yes I want to choke you right now. That's how we handle things. 'So, for Nick to act like, "Oh, Jasmine," please. Really, Nick? Get something else. I know you want attention, but this is so Nick coded.' has reached out to Viall's reps for comment. Elsewhere during Goode's interview with the reality star opened up about feeling 'triggered' by co-star Danny Booko's alleged drunken behavior in season two of The Valley, which premiered last April. At the start of the season, The Valley star Jason Caperna claimed that Booko, 41, had been 'inappropriate' with Goode and Goode's fiancée, Melissa Carelli, during a Halloween party. 'Not too long ago, Jasmine was in a situation where Danny was blackout drunk and was really inappropriate,' Caperna explained during a confessional in the premiere episode. 'Danny approached Jasmine, put his hand on her thigh and said, "Get daddy a drink," referring to himself as "daddy." 'And then when she went to go get "daddy" and some other people a drink as well, he approached Jasmine's girlfriend Melissa and grabbed her butt.' Booko later apologized to Goode and Carelli, telling the couple at co-star Brittany Cartwright's white party that his behavior was 'completely out of his character.' However, Goode told her co-stars she still felt 'triggered' by Booko following a cast trip to Santa Barbara, California, in which he had missed a group dinner after a long day of drinking at a winery. Speaking to Goode admitted that she wanted a second apology from Booko over the Halloween incident because she felt his original apology wasn't genuine. 'When this all happened, I got a text message from Danny and then he apologized to Melissa at the white party,' she explained. 'That's the only time. I know he keeps saying he's done this numerous times, and it wasn't multiple apologies. It was at one time at the white party.' 'Then we sat down at the white party and the first thing he said to me was, "Are you doing this to me right now?" And that just sent me. 'I was like, "Wait, I'm doing this to you?" Like, this is the first time you're seeing Melissa. 'This is the first time you're apologizing to her face, and this is what you're saying as you sit down.' Goode continued: 'Right there, I was like, "This apology is not working for me."' In last week's episode, Booko apologized again for his behavior at the Halloween party, which Goode felt needed to happen in order to move forward with their friendship. 'Having that conversation with him again, I think I needed him to understand, like, look, if you want a friendship with me, I want you to understand this is what you did to me and how it made me feel.' New episodes of The Valley air Tuesdays at 9pm ET on Bravo.

Nick Viall's wife Natalie experiences second miscarriage
March 24 (UPI) -- Nick Viall, who starred as The Bachelor in Season 21 of the reality show, and his wife, Natalie Joy, are experiencing a second miscarriage. Joy announced the news in her Instagram Stories on Sunday. "While mourning the loss of our second baby at the beginning of this year I quickly and very unexpectedly found out I was pregnant again," she wrote. In January, Joy announced on The Viall Files, that she was "actively miscarrying," describing the experience as "the biggest heartbreak, I think of my life." She said that she was trying balance her grief with presence for their daughter River Rose, who was 11 months at the time. "This past week I miscarried again," she wrote Sunday on Instagram. "I underwent a D&C this time which was harder than I imagined. It's going to take some time for me to feel like myself again and honestly I may never will but I hope to keep y'all involved in whatever that may look like." Joy and Viall tied the knot in April of 2024. They dated four years prior to their nuptials.
