'Just Some Castmates' Celebrate 'Mormon Wives' Milestone Together

Some of the cast of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" celebrated a big milestone on Monday night.

Leader of MomTok, Taylor Frankie Paul, shared how the "castmates" celebrated in an Instagram Story post. In attendance for the milestone celebration - Paul's ex, Dakota Mortensen, Mikayla Matthews, Jessi Ngatikaura, Mayci Neeley, and their husbands.

"The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" quickly became a hit on Hulu when it was released in September 2024. Fans quickly got hooked, binging the entire first season and then began asking about a second season.

While it didn't take long for Hulu to announce that a second season of the hit reality show is happening, fans couldn't get enough and flocked to social media to continue to follow the MomTok crew.

To grab even more fans' attention between seasons, the show made its TV network premiere on ABC on January 27, airing the first season with weekly episodes. This exciting milestone brought some of the cast together to celebrate over dinner. Paul shared a snap from the celebration on her Instagram Story.

Paul also shared a video on TikTok to commemorate the milestone of the popular reality show hitting network TV.

Simply captioned, "Our show premiered tonight on ABC," the video features the four MomTok moms who were seen in the Instagram Story Paul shared Monday night.

Hulu dropped into the comment section to say, "Love to see it." Some viewers had questions about season 2 and when it will be coming out, and others shared that they are watching the show for the first time on ABC.

"My mom called me and told me it came on after the bachelor she’s finally watching it!" one fan wrote. Another said, "When I saw the ad on mainstream tv for ABC network, I literally went flush, I'm like whaaaat."

In an earlier Instagram Story, Paul, 30, shared some birthday wishes for Mortensen, 32, her ex-boyfriend and "baby daddy."

In the video of Mortensen holding their son, Ever True, born last March, she included the message, "Happy birthday baby daddy wishing nothing but the best for you."

For the former couple, breaking up has been hard to do. Both have shared multiple videos and posts about their heartache and struggles coping with not being together. The two appear to continue to co-parent and be friendly and supportive of each other.

Borrowing a MomTok vibe, Mortensen took to TikTok to share his own birthday celebration video. Captioned, "Still can't dance tho," the video is giving DadTok vibes all the way.

Tons of birthday wishes poured into the comment section for Mortensen, who then shared a second birthday related video alongside Jessi Ngatikaura's husband, Jordan.

"Who actually says your real age," he captioned the short video.

One viewer agreed with Mortensen's stance on age saying, "I've been 29 for 4 years now!" Another viewer shared a different view, "I embrace my age. I've never lied about it. Turning 39 and feel great! Proud of the years I've lived."

While many fans have rewatched season 1 of the show because they were missing all the MomTok drama, many others have taken to social media to watch the drama continually unfold between the cast.

There have been some ongoing issues between Paul and Demi Engemann, Paul and Whitney Leavitt, and now there seems to be some issues between Engemann and Ngatikaura. And while many viewers feel the drama is created for the show, Ngatikaura commented on a video by @stephwithdadeets that talks about her and Engemann's recent fallout.

"I know people tend to think these things are manufactured drama but these are real friendships that have ups and downs and unfortunately things like go noticed because we’re public. Nothing has ever been faked for cameras, and the end of any friendship is very sad," she explained. "Hopefully future seasons will give speculation more context but just remember you never really know the full story of any friendship because human emotions are complex."

All of the MomTok moms are on Instagram and TikTok, so if you're hoping to keep up with the drama before season 2 gets released in mid-May, that's where you'll find it.
