Hulu’s ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ explores the personal lives of its cast members, including one of the central figures, Mayci Neeley. For years, she and her husband, Jacob Neeley, have appeared on the series, with their relationship and family life often in the spotlight. In season 4, while several relationships around them began to struggle or fall apart, theirs remained steady and strong. In many ways, it was refreshing to see them supporting one another and navigating challenges together. This was especially evident when Jacob stood by Mayci as she faced professional challenges soon after welcoming their third child.
Mayci and Jacob Welcomed Their Third Baby Into Their Lives
In 2014, Mayci was pregnant with her first son, Hudson, whom she was expecting with her then-boyfriend Arik. Tragically, Arik passed away in a car accident during that time, which was an incredibly heartbreaking and shocking experience for her. When Hudson was born, Mayci poured all her love and strength into raising him. It was not until 2016 that she met Jacob Neeley through mutual friends. At first, she simply saw him as a friend, but she appreciated how comfortable he was around her son and how supportive he seemed. Over time, she realized that she could rely on him, and their bond gradually deepened.

What began as a friendship slowly turned into something meaningful. The two eventually fell in love and started dating in late 2016. In November 2017, Jacob proposed to Mayci and promised to stand by her and care for both her and Hudson as his own. On June 8, 2018, Mayci and Jacob tied the knot in Laguna Beach, surrounded by family and friends. Like many couples, they faced their share of challenges along the way. One of the most difficult journeys for them was trying to grow their family, which led them to pursue IVF. The process was not easy, but they remained hopeful throughout it.
In February 2021, the couple finally welcomed their daughter, Harlow, into the world. Mayci has often spoken about how grateful she was for Jacob’s constant support, especially during the emotionally and physically demanding IVF journey. In season 3 of the show, the couple was seen trying for another child, and in the following season, they celebrated the arrival of their second daughter, Charli, who was born in August 2025. During this time, Mayci and Jacob spent much of their time at home caring for their newborn. Still, when Mayci released her book, Jacob stepped in to manage things at home so she could focus on her work.
Mayci and Jacob Have Continued Supporting Each Other Through Life’s Ups and Downs
Mayci and Jacob Neeley are happy in their life as parents to their three children and often share glimpses of their family life. Their love as a couple has only grown stronger over the years as they have been through both joyful moments and personal challenges together. One of the most meaningful milestones in their journey came in March 2023, when Jacob legally adopted Hudson, the son Mayci had before their relationship. Having raised him as his own for years, the adoption made their family connection official and deeply meaningful for all of them. Mayci often refers to Jacob as her “green flag lover boy,” a term that reflects the supportive, caring nature of their relationship.
The couple regularly celebrates holidays, birthdays, and family milestones together, creating traditions that highlight the love they share with their children. From festive holiday gatherings to simple family outings, they prioritize spending time together and making memories. Jacob has also openly expressed his appreciation for Mayci and the balance they bring to each other’s lives. As he once shared, “After spending the last 9 years with her, I’ve realized how well we balance each other. She likes to make things special and is always recognizing the things that I do when I might brush them under the rug. I am thankful for her. It’s the little things your partner does to keep you grounded and experiencing life.”
Beyond their family responsibilities, the couple also shares a playful side online. They often create lighthearted, funny reels for their digital profiles, giving followers a peek into their everyday lives and sense of humor. These moments show how well they complement one another. Together, Mayci and Jacob continue to focus on building a loving home, raising their children, and looking ahead to the many hopes and plans they have for their family’s future.
Mayci is an Entrepreneur, and Jacob is a Hugely Popular DadTok Member
Mayci Neeley may be known as a reality TV star, but she has used her growing platform to build several ventures of her own. She is the CEO of her brand, Baby Mama Company, which focuses on baby products and resources for prenatal, neonatal, and new-mother care. Beyond that, she has created an online community called Sinner’s Sunday, a space where followers can anonymously share confessions and personal stories. In 2025, she also expanded into writing with the release of her memoir ‘Told You So,’ where she opened up about her childhood, personal struggles, and the experiences that shaped her life.
Jacob Neeley, on the other hand, has often said he mainly serves as a stay-at-home dad while supporting his family. Since appearing on reality television, he has also gained popularity online and is often seen as part of the “DadTok” community. Jacob frequently identifies himself first as a husband and father, proudly supporting Mayci’s businesses and projects while focusing on raising their children and maintaining their home life.
