The romantic relationships of the cast members on Hulu’s ‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ have consistently been a key element of the show, driving much of its emotional weight and drama. Viewers have been given a glimpse into the intimate details of their personal lives, often revealing more than expected. In the second season, Jessi and Jordan Ngatikaura took center stage. Although their relationship appeared strong and harmonious for the majority of the season, a surprising revelation toward the finale disrupted that image and cast doubt and stirred tension.
Jessi and Jordan Are Figuring Out the Future of Their Marriage
Jessi first crossed paths with Jordan while she was separated from her former husband, Zach. By the end of 2019, they made their relationship official and publicly praised one another for the emotional support they provided during life’s transitions. In July 2020, they discovered they were expecting their first child, and just two months later, Jordan proposed. Jessi happily accepted. Their son, Jagger Zayn Ngatikaura, was born on April 20, 2021, and the joys of parenthood were unbridled for them. A few months later, on October 8, the couple tied the knot in a beautiful ceremony held in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. They began their new life together in Utah and formed a blended family that included Jordan’s daughter, Peyton, from a previous relationship. In January 2023, their family grew again with the arrival of their daughter, Jovi James Ngatikaura.
In 2025, ‘Vanderpump Villa’ star Marciano Brunette sat down with Layla Taylor and claimed that he had an affair with Jessi. He alleged that during a trip to Italy in August 2024, they kissed and spent the night together, and that their connection continued beyond that. Jessi confirmed that she had an emotional affair but claimed it was nothing more. She confessed that the two of them had been facing difficulty and were trying out a nine-day separation at the time, as had been advised by their therapist. While the couple made the decision to stick together and figure out what was next, it was not seamless.
In season 4, Jessi said that while she and Jordan were working on their relationship, she was also considering the possibility that divorce could be on the line. She told Jordan that she wanted to officially use her maiden name, which he was not too happy about. He did try and communicate better and tried not to keep any secrets from them. However, when he showed a lot of excitement about going to ‘Vanderpump Villa’ with the other boys, Jessi did not take it too kindly. She felt he was being intentional. However, when she found out that their pre-nuptial agreements were not valid, she broke down and said that she would rather stay stuck in a marriage than risk her children’s future.
Jessi and Jordan Are Sticking by Each Other’s Side
Jessi has previously opened up about the state of her marriage and how she and Jordan have been rebuilding after their separation. She shared that they’ve been in therapy, fully aware that their relationship would be heavily scrutinized once the affair became public. She admitted, “This coming out publicly was a weird blessing in disguise. Obviously, it was humiliating and embarrassing, but it actually gave us room to face it and get help. It forced us to go to therapy and make changes. As of right now, it looks like we’re on an upward hill.” Jessi noted that while the issues won’t resolve overnight, they are committed to rebuilding trust.
In 2025, the couple took a Halloween trip to Disneyland and attended a Dodgers game in September 2025. For a fun date, they also went to a UFC match together. Their children remain their priority, and they are working to create stability at home while continuing to heal together. Jessi has started using her maiden name again, but she has said that it is purely for business reasosna nd does not reflect the state of her marriage. She and Jordan They lovingly celebated Valentine’s Day together in 2026 and are committed to seeing their way through. They have said that they are continuing therapy and remain hopeful about how things will work out.
Jessi and Jordan Have Created a Business Empire Together
Together, Jessi and Jordan Ngatikaura have built a successful presence in both reality television and digital content creation. The former is the founder of JZ Styles, a thriving brand that includes a hair extension company, salon, and professional academy. She’s poured her energy into growing the business, which has already gained major traction in the beauty industry. Jordan, on the other hand, has transitioned from his earlier roles, including manager at RISE Energy and affiliations with Nasun solar panels and the Naughty Kitchen blog, into a full-fledged entertainment personality.
Jordan has become a well-known face in the digital space, especially on social media, as an ambassador for Bucked Up, a fitness supplement company, and a key figure in the DadTok community (an unofficial spinoff of the popular MomTok network). While their relationship has faced challenges, professionally, both Jessi and Jordan have established strong individual identities and have continued to connect with their audiences through authenticity and an open window into their family life.
