The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is gearing up for a wild return after season 2 ended with a shocking allegation of infidelity.
The trailer teases a rift that could tear MomTok apart.

Our prayers have been answered and a new season of Hulu's The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is on the way.
The women of MomTok — a collective of Utah-based influencers who first made headlines in 2022 amid a swinging scandal — have a lot of explaining to do. The season 2 finale introduced a dizzying cheating scandal that revealed even more cracks in the ever-cratering friend group.
While we got some answers from the explosive season 2 reunion, the cast of soda-guzzling, media-savvy moms has kept many details under wraps, teasing more answers to come.
So, when does season 3 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives come out? What answers can fans expect? And who the heck is Marciano? Read on for everything we know about The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 3.

Yes, there will be a season 3 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.
Hulu renewed the series for 20 episodes in October 2024, following the success of season 1. The first 10 episodes comprised season 2, with the remaining 10 slated for the upcoming third season, Entertainment Weekly can confirm.
What's this about a cheating scandal?

Demi Engemann on 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives'
Throughout season 2 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, rumors swirled around whether cast member Demi Engemann cheated on her husband, Bret, while appearing on Vanderpump Villa, a reality series hosted by Lisa Vanderpump.
Viewers were caught off-guard, however, when Marciano Brunette, the Vanderpump Villa star who flirted with Demi on that series, claimed in the Mormon Wives season 2 finale that he'd hooked up with a different (married) cast member, Jessi Ngatikaura. He alleged that his affair with Jessi happened after he'd returned to the U.S., and that it "was not just a one-time hook-up thing."
Demi has denied any allegations of infidelity. "Nothing happened with Marciano. At the expense of sounding rude, there wasn't even a remote attraction to him," she told Us Weekly in May.
Jessi, meanwhile, said at the reunion that "a lot of this story is unpacked in season 3, so I can't talk about it yet." She added that she and her husband Jordan were "working through a lot of hard things at the moment," and acknowledged the lack of a wedding ring on her finger.
Who is Marciano Brunette?
Marciano Brunette is a DJ and TV personality who appeared on seasons 1 and 2 of Vanderpump Villa, a series in which Vanderpump oversees a staff of young hospitality professionals at luxury international resorts.
On Vanderpump Villa season 2, Marciano was particularly attentive to Demi when the Mormon Wives arrived in Italy. During the Mormon Wives reunion, the cast members present for the Vanderpump Villa taping said Demi was being "extra flirty" with Marciano, with Mikayla Matthews admitting she spoke to Demi about how it would look on camera.
Since the season 2 finale aired, Marciano has shared a handful of posts to his Instagram about his interactions with Demi. Like Jessi, he claims there's more to be revealed.
What is The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 3 about?

Whitney Leavitt and Miranda McWhorter on 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives'
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 3 promises even more drama. "Momtok is back, but damaging revelations and allegations threaten its future," reads the logline. "The members face a crisis of friendship as loyalties shift; trust is tested, and the lines between fact and fiction blur."
It continues, "When the pursuit of the truth calls character into question, a war over morality begins and a clash between Momtok and Dadtok erupts. With their sisterhood and everything they’ve built hanging in the balance, can the women find a path forward to salvation? Or will their collective sins destroy Momtok for good?"
Is there a Secret Lives of Mormon Wives season 3 trailer?
Yes, and it finds Momtok "at its lowest point."
As expected, the drama surrounding Jessi, Demi, and Marciano will be at the forefront of season 3. Beyond the Marciano saga is the wider issue of Demi's growing rift with the rest of MomTok. Season 2, after all, found Demi attempting to usurp Taylor Frankie Paul as the face of MomTok, trying (and failing) to turn the other women against her.
The trailer also alludes to other alliances, with Whitney Leavitt seemingly siding with Demi and announcing that she plans to start her own MomTok.

The cast of 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives'
It's unlikely we'll see any new influencers joining MomTok in season 3, as there's plenty of drama left to explore among the main cast. You can also expect to see more of Jordan and Bret, what with their proximity to the alleged cheating scandal.
It is worth noting, though, that MomTok OG Miranda McWhorter is part of the group again now that she and Taylor have made amends following the swinging scandal.
When asked by season 2 reunion host Nick Viall if Miranda was back in MomTok, the cast confirmed as much by pointing out that she was there onstage with them.
