EXCLUSIVE Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star reveals how she REALLY feels about getting a 'designer vagina'
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Ngatikaura is 'happy' she was able to broadcast her labiaplasty on season one of the hit Hulu series. While some may shy away from announcing plans to undergo such an intimate cosmetic procedure - which involves shortening or reshaping the vaginal lips - that was not the case for Jessi, who even allowed cameras to roll as she underwent the surgery before proudly showing off the results of her 'mommy makeover' with friends. Now Jessi, 32, is thrilled her own experience resonated with so many other women and mothers insecure about the appearance of their private parts. 'I never knew that I needed or wanted this surgery, I didn't even know the word for it, and now I know that this is a thing,' she told at the season two premiere of The Secret Wives of Mormon Wives. 'So just the fact that I could help women or moms who are struggling with that insecurity, and it does cause a lot of physical discomfort, so I was really happy to share that, and I'm an open book, so I'm happy that people related.' A mom of two, Jessi said on season one that she was unable to wear yoga pants due to her drooping 'meat curtains.' Labiaplasty - which has been called a 'designer vagina' surgery - is a surgical procedure to reduce the size of the labia minora – the flaps of skin either side of the vaginal opening. It involves cutting away unwanted tissue with a scalpel of laser in a procedure that takes about one to two hours. Cameras captured the moment Jessi underwent both the labiaplasty and breast reduction at once, followed by her recovery period. 'So I just want to be small with an implant. And then yeah, whatever you think down there,' Jessi - who previously had three breast augmentations - told her surgeon. Not only that, but Jessi announced her surgery to friends by hosting a paint night where the girls drew their own vaginas. 'The reason we're gonna do this is because on Monday, I'm getting a labiaplasty. And they are cutting it all off, tightening it back up, getting a mommy makeover,' she told her pals. In a confessional, she admitted that things changed after she welcomed her two children, daughters Jovi and Peyton, with husband Jordan Ngatikaura. 'A labiaplasty basically takes the inside of your vagina, the material that's a little more sensitive, and tucks it up inside. Pregnancy kind of pushes it out and mine decided to stay there. Now, after having two kids, even though physically I feel like I look back to normal, there are things that will never be the same,' she said. At that time, Jessi was experiencing discomfort 'down there.' 'Can't wear yoga pants right now,' she explained to her stunned costars 'My meat curtains, they just hang low.' 'So they're basically cutting off that extra meat and making it so my lips are just nice and perfect again.' 'Extra meat - I'm gonna make a sandwich with that!' she said with a laugh. After the surgery, Jessi discussed what was expected during the recovery time, which included bleeding and instructions to not have sex for four to six weeks. 'I was brutal the first night,' Jessi said of the the night after the surgery. 'I felt like I had a blowtorch up there! But then after I had my painkillers it's been way better.' She then showed off the actual results to her shocked friends. 'Spread it open!' they shouted as Jessi pulled down her shorts in front of them. 'It's swollen... They said that right now it should look like hotdog buns, which it does, but once it's not swollen it's gonna be tight,' she explained. 'Before, all of this stuff was hanging down at least that much,' she said. Season two of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star premieres on May 15 on Hulu.

Is Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Jen Related to Ben Affleck? Zac Sets the Record Straight
When Jen Affleck made her reality TV debut on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 1 in 2024, fans had the same pressing question: Is she and her husband, , related to Ben Affleck? The MomTok star addressed the chatter during the season, but Zac shared the truth during season 2 the following year. In Touch breaks down everything Jen and Zac have said about his possible relation to Ben. Jen sparked interest during her rise to fame because her name was very similar to an A-list celeb. When Jennifer Lopez filed for divorce from Ben in August 2024, it was revealed that she changed her name legally to Jennifer Affleck and requested to change it back to her maiden name. The news came just one month before Secret Lives Of Mormon Wives debuted. That said, curiosity about the possible relation between the reality stars and the A-list celebrity buzzed on social media. Jen first reacted to the chatter that September via TikTok, when she deemed herself 'new Jenny from the block' following Bennifer's split. Later that month, Jen claimed that 'Ben and [his brother] Casey [Affleck] is Zac's dad's [David Affleck] second cousin.' 'So, Zac's dad has probably met him [Ben] once in his whole entire life. But when I was dating him, he's like, 'Well now if you get married to me, you get to say you're related to Ben Affleck,'' Jen told the New York Post at the time. She admitted that her husband's comment was 'kind of a joke, but also like, kind of real.' As if the interest in the Affleck family tree wasn't enough, Jen revealed that she was named after the one and only J. Lo. 'Jennifer Lynn Lopez, my name is Jennifer Lynn Affleck. I'm like, okay, Jenny from the block is here,' the mom-of-three told the publication. Days after Jen's interview about being related by marriage to Ben was published, a source close to Zac's family told People that her claims were not true. "There's no relationship. I just don't think that's very fair about that either," the insider told the outlet in a story published on August 27, 2024. "So Zac Affleck is her husband. [His father] is David Affleck. Zac's grandfather is Gordon Affleck. Zac's great-grandparents — which would [establish] second cousins — his name is Alan Burt Affleck. Then Ben's dad is Tim Affleck. His grandfather is Myron Junior. His great-grandparent is Myron Senior. No, Alan Burt and Myron Senior aren't brothers or anything.' Zac and Jen attended a Halloween party at Jessi Ngatikaura's house during The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 2. While getting ready, Jen joked that she and Zac show up the former Gigli costars. However, the light hearted joke turned into a lowkey argument when Zac stood his ground and claimed he never told Jen he was related to Ben. 'Well, I think the whole Ben Affleck thing is hilarious,' she said in a confessional. 'That's something they mentioned with Zach, he's just trying to squash it, even though his family did tell me that. 'No one's ever claimed to have some relationship with him besides you,' Zac told Jen, who replied, 'How do you jokingly say that to someone when they're being married into a family?' During a solo congressional, Zac shared that he had 'no idea' if he was related to the Accountant actor. 'If I am or I'm not related to Ben Affleck, and that had been, like a running joke in my family. It had never been something serious,' he explained. 'And so, when Jen started telling people that, I did tell her, 'I don't think you should say that anymore. I think that's probably gonna backfire.'' Zac continued, 'I feel like this is Jen's battle, and I guess I'll just leave that for Jen to share her perspective.'
