Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Jessi Draper allegedly sent her costar Miranda Hope flowers and an apology after she reportedly shared a kiss with Miranda’s ex-husband Chase McWhorter.
The secret lives of some of the Mormon wives are coming to light.
Amid Jessi Draper’s divorce from Jordan Ngatikaura, it seems the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast member might be moving on with a familiar face.
During a recent party, Jessi was allegedly seen kissing Chase McWhorter, the ex-husband of fellow Mormon Wives cast member Miranda Hope, according to multiple outlets.
Shortly after that news broke on March 26, Miranda seemingly acknowledged the hookup when she revealed a bouquet of flowers she said she received from Jessi that was accompanied by an apology.
“I completely understand you being upset with me,” Jessi allegedly wrote on the card, which Miranda shared on her Instagram Stories, “but wanted to send you a little something to let you know I’m thinking about you and I am so, so sorry.”
Beneath the note, Miranda—mom to two kids with Chase—added with an upside down smiley face, “Received the prettiest flowers just minutes ago.”
Even with the apology note, a source close to Miranda tells E! News that “it’s disappointing that such a close friend would break her trust.”
A rep for Chase had no comment when contacted by E! News. E! News has reached out to a rep for Jessi for comment but has not yet heard back.
Days before her kiss with Chase, Jessi—mom to two kids with Jordan, as well as stepmom to his 13-year-old daughter—learned that her husband Jordan had filed for divorce, a move she described as him “blindsiding” her because “he wanted the headline first.”
“My heart sunk,” she said on the March 25 episode of Call Her Daddy, “because we agreed to tell our children together before filing and we haven’t done that including his daughter, who’s like 13 years old.”
Meanwhile, Jessi also appears to be getting a little flirty with Vanderpump Villa’s Marciano Brunette after confessing to having an emotional affair with him last year, which negatively impacted her relationship with Jordan.
Although Jessi said on the Call Her Daddy podcast that she hadn’t spoken to Marciano in almost a year, he reshared the clip March 26 with the coy caption, “But why is she giggling?” to which Jessi responded, “Check mate” and “Hahahahah.”
For her part, Miranda explained on the Weekly Trash podcast in August 2024—the same month she announced her divorce—that she and Chase broke up because of “things that were issues far before” the infamous MomTok soft swinging scandal from 2022.
E! News has reached out to Jordan for comment on the divorce, but hasn’t heard back.
