Disney Despite the name The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, not all of the show stars are active in the religion. Members of the Mormon faith belong to the Church of Latter-Day Saints (LDS), which are often characterized by strict rules. On The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, a group of #MomTok influencers attempted to defy traditional gender roles. "Everyone has Mormon roots," Mayci Neeley said on the group's "Viall Files" podcast appearance in September 2024, before Mikayla Matthews and Jessi Ngatikaura revealed that they are not members of the church.
