But Siwa's partner Kath reveals she's DUMPED the CBB star and claims she was asked her to marry her before the show She also claimed on The Viall Files that she got "cussed out" by Kath at the CBB wrap party before deciding to end it there and then. She said: "There's so many reasons why my breakup happened. Christopher is not one of them. "I actually told this to Kath, like, 'Maybe it would be easier if he was!' "But he is not one of them, so if you're going to share the story, share the story… Don't paint it out to look like I cheated on you with him because I did not… I would not, and I have not." She added about Kath, who uses they/them pronouns: "All of a sudden we're at the wrap party for Big Brother. I'm getting cussed out. "I understand where they're angry and where they're coming at me, but I also keep reiterating like, 'I'm not in a place to talk.'… "Anyway, by the 16th time somebody asks you, 'Are you happy? Do you want to end things?' You're going to just spew your guts and I was honest and I said, 'If you ask me tomorrow, I don't know my answer. if you ask me right now, my answer is yes.' "And then that obviously was taken as yes, and it was a yes." Over on Reddit, some have sympathised with Kath, who also accused JoJo of "emotionally cheating" in a TikTok that went viral in April. A fan said: "One thing I consistently think about is how much of a mind f**k it would have been to receive daily 'I love you' video messages from your girlfriend every single day, then turn on your TV and see her cuddling, flirting and emotionally cheating on you. "I don't think the mental gymnastics JoJo put Kath through is talked about enough." Another said: "JoJo 100% cheated" as a third remarked: "I'm sorry but I used to follow JoJo a lot especially during her DWTS era. She has a history of making it sound like she was always the wronged one in her past relationships. She never owns up to any mistakes. I don't buy anything she says anymore. Speaking about the break-up, Kath said they "flew across the world to support and be there and hold [Siwa] in whatever they would be experiencing, leaving such a wild experience, and instead, I was dumped at the afterparty, with Chris in the next room." 6 JoJo allegedly told Kath her feelings had changed towards her while she was in the house Credit: Rex 6 Chris Hughes and JoJo struck up a strong bond - and are now dating Credit: Eroteme

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: What Are The Jordan Rumours?
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives ' Jessi Ngatikaura and husband Jordan are in the middle of a rumour storm, after four years of marriage. The pair share three kids Jagger, 5, and Jovi, 2, as well as Jordan's daughter Peyton, 12, from a previous relationship. Are the couple now getting a divorce? The drama came from another reality star claiming that he and Jessi began an affair, after she and her costars appeared on his show. Vanderpump Villa 's Marciano Brunette claimed he and Jessi had an onscreen romance, telling another Mormon Wives' cast member: 'One thing led to another.' But while she's neither confirming or denying this (she's said there's 'so much more' to the story), Jessi has come out in defence of her marriage. 'I will say that reality TV is hard on any relationship — whether it's a friendship or a marriage,' Jessi told The Viall Files podcast on 20 May. 'We're working through things and we're trying our best, but things are a little tricky right now.' A notable point was she wasn't wearing her wedding ring during this. 'Relationships are hard and they're nuanced,' Jessi went on. 'There's so much more that I'm excited to share because I think people will be able to relate to my story and I think it may help people.' One of the more telling parts of the interview came when the host asked her if she thought Jordan was a good role model to their daughters. 'I think that there's been a lot that's happened. I think that he and I are both willing to work on things and change. But maybe he should be asked that question because that might wake him up. But no, I think there's a lot of things that have needed to change.' Meanwhile, Viall, the host, suggested he'd 'heard some things' about Jordan he was 'really disappointed' to learn. 'I hope they're not true. Clearly, you can't tell me,' he said. 'But your answer is revealing. I'd love the opportunity to talk with him about some of the things I have heard if they end up being true because it's really quite sad and disappointing.' Still, the pair seem to be committed to each other. Jordan shared a heartfelt message on Instagram earlier this month, saying: 'Happy Mother's Day to the heart of our family. There are so many things I admire about Jessi, but the way you love and mother our kids is something I'm endlessly grateful for. Your strength, your softness, and the way you show up for them every single day is nothing short of beautiful. You were made to be their mom and they are so lucky to have you. Through all of life's ups and downs, I still choose you. I still love you every single day.' Seasons one and two of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives are available to stream on Disney+

‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' Biggest Scandals
MomTok survived! Yes, season two of Hulu's The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives has finally aired on the streamer, bringing 10 new juicy episodes full of Mormon secrets including more cheating rumors, more swinging deep dives and a dabble in ketamine. Following the lives of a group of Mormon Mom TikTokers, the series returned late last week and it's safe to say we spent our entire weekend binge watching the women fight over charcuterie boards. What?! Can't a girl have a hobby? And this season had even more drama (we weren't sure it was even possible) than season 1, racking up the number of scandals this group have gone through. And there's quite a lot to keep track of, so if you've forgotten or want to relive all the tea, then here are the seven biggest scandals this group of women (and their equally dramatic partners) have gone through. The whole reason we have the show in the first place is due to a soft-swinging scandal that involved some of the women. MomTok started in the pandemic, but it really kicked off when one member Taylor Frankie Paul alleged she and other MomTok members had engaged in soft-swinging, and told the entire internet about it. The other members denied it at the time. It went viral and later Taylor split from her then husband Tate Paul. It also fractured her relationship with many of the women, including her bestie Miranda McWhorter, who originally denied what was going on. During season one Taylor started the season on the outs with the other women, but made her way back in and stayed friends. Then in season two Miranda joined the cast and spilled the tea on what happened at the soft-swinging parties. She maintains she only ever engaged is kissing and that sex never took place at these parties. "Well the thing is, like, the height of what I was ever involved in was like playing spin the bottle and like kissing other people,' she told the other women during her entrance to the show. 'So it was very jarring for me for Taylor to come out and say like everyone was hooking up with everyone because that was simply not the case at all. No one had sex ever. Period. I will go to my grave.' However, she later appeared on The Viall Files, and did admit that she and her husband at the time, Chase McWhorter, did have sex in one room while another couple were in it, they just never actually switched partners. The couple later announced their divorce in 2024. Following her split from husband Tate Paul, Taylor got into a relationship with Dakota Mortensen. Early on in their relationship, the police were called to Taylor's house after neighbors called up after hearing an altercation. Taylor, who was intoxicated at the time, was arrested and Dakota was overheard talking to police saying: "She just attacked the crap out of me." Taylor could then be heard saying: "You threw me in the garage." She was later charged with domestic violence and in August 2023 she pleaded guilty to aggravated assault, while 'the other four charges were dismissed with prejudice,' as per the New York Post. The first season also kicked off with another scandal—the revelation that Whitney Leavitt's husband had been found on Tinder. Whitney was another big name in the MomTok world before the show, and as the series kicks off it's revealed Whitney was coming back from Hawaii, where she claimed that she and her family had been living to avoid the soft swinging fallout of MomTok. However, she later revealed that was not the case. She rather candidly opened up about her husband, and father of her children, Conner Leavitt being discovered on Tinder. She had initially denied the rumors but later confirmed that Conner was on Tinder and had a porn addiction. Ok, so this is not in the same vein as the other scandals, but it's equally as shocking to me. Back in season one we were introduced to one MomToker Jen Affleck. She has a rather noticeable surname and she told viewers that she was in fact related to the Ben Affleck. Well, her husband Zac's family were, with Jen telling People at the time: 'Zac's dad has [met him], when [Ben] was very little. I'm hoping to meet him one day, too!' Jen even went as far as to say she was the original 'Jennifer Affleck' referencing Ben Affleck's ex-wife Jennifer Lopez, 'My name happens to be not only Jen, but Jennifer Lynn Affleck, which is the exact same as JLo. She went from Jennifer Lynn Lopez to Jennifer Lynn Affleck, which is so crazy.' However, one season later it turns out it was actually all a big joke from Zac's family. The surname is brought up in a season two episode, with Jen confronting her husband about the name. She says to Zac that Ben is his second cousin, which Zac denies. Jen then claimed that Zac's family had told her this previously, adding: 'You're not going to make me feel stupid when that's all I've been told from your family.' However, Zac went onto insist it's just a family joke and they are not actually related in anyway to the Affleck family. The first season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives ended on a bombshell confession from Mayci that she had heard Taylor's boyfriend Dakota was cheating on her. Taylor and Dakota's relationship was up and down throughout the series, however they were expecting their first baby together. During the final scenes of the season Mayci is seen calling the woman in question who is said to have cheated with Dakota. In season two we thankfully got an update. Enter: Jenna, the woman Dakota is alleged to have been hooking up with when he first started dating Taylor. Taylor meets up with her at Mayci's house in the opening episode of the new season. She showed messages Jenna and Dakota had sent to each other, and it was later revealed Jenna had asked Dakota if he was dating Taylor and he allegedly said: 'No, that's just for clout. She's just helping me build my social media.' Taylor, of course, struggled to hear this, and tried to match up timelines of dates certain things had happened. Later on in the episode Dakota said, 'When I saw Mayci call Jenna, I just didn't want more problems. So I decided to tell Taylor we just made out.' He also added: 'I deleted some messages that if she were to read those, that would essentially make me lose her and my son. I did lie. I was always doing it selfishly to protect myself.' The couple have since split. Sure alcohol, coffee and tea are all banned in the Mormon way of life, but one thing that is on the menu? Ketamine. The pair had a difficult time in season one, namely when Zac struggled with seeing Jen go to a Chippendales gig. It led to a massive argument between the pair, with Zac threatening to end their relationship. They didn't breakup, but instead headed to New York to check out medical schools as Zac was considering moving the family there. At one point it seemed like Jen wouldn't come back for season two. But she did, and she kicked off the couple's season 2 journey with a bang. They were seen in one episode doing ketamine therapy as a way to improve their relationship. During one confessional Jen explains the purpose of having ketamine therapy: 'Zac and I will definitely have a lot to work on, and ketamine therapy is supposed to reset a lot of past traumas or habits you've created.' The couple are then seen doing the therapy and addressing the grey area the Mormon Church has with the drug. 'Ketamine is in the grey area when it comes to the church,' she said. 'Yeah, the church doesn't promote ketamine, but it's definitely not like a commandment exactly. Ketamine is a pure example of how much he's willing to do to show up for the relationship.' Just like season one ended with cheating allegations so too did season two, however this time it was MomToker Jessi Ngatikaura who was accused. During the final episode fellow cast member Layla met up with Vanderpump Villa cast member Marciano. Before season two began, several of the Mormon Wives cast filmed a crossover appearance on Vanderpump Villa. And there was then speculation that Jesse and Maricano had kissed while hanging out in West Hollywood. Jessi denied the allegation, saying: 'If I was dumb enough to do that, I wouldn't do it in public.' Marciano then claimed to Layla during the final scenes of season two that he and Jessi had slept together and had an ongoing affair. Jessi, who is married to Jordan Ngatikaura, hasn't directly commented on this allegation, however on her Instagram a few days she did share the video below and captioned it: 'I'll speak when I can.' SO. MUCH. DRAMA.
