Is Jennifer Affleck's time on MomTok really through?
In the The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives finale, Jennifer calls castmate Jessi Ngatikaura to make a shocking reveal.
"Jen called me and she goes like, 'I just wanted to tell you my version of things and what's going on,'" Jessi reveals to Demi Engemann.
"Jen told me that she's leaving MomTok because of Zac," Jessi says.
"He doesn't want her associated with us. I am really sad that this is just a continuous pattern that's not getting better."

Jessi expresses that she fears Zac has given Jennifer an ultimatum. The scene then shows the couple exploring New York City, where he was accepted to medical school.
Earlier in the episode, the couple discussed the possibility of relocating and Jennifer promotes taking a year off before 10 more years of his schooling.
“We also just found out that Zac got into medical school in New York, which was one of his top dream schools to get into. Medical schools are super hard on marriages, so it makes me question if going to medical school is worth it," she says in a confessional.
Zac resists waiting a year, to which Jennifer says, "I think if we avoid all of our issues and just keep moving forward that, being completely honest, I don’t know if our marriage would last. Do you have hope for the future?”
“I know that part of you thinks that New York, that’s where we’re supposed to be. But I just don’t know if it makes sense. It holds me back from business opportunities with MomTok," she tells her husband.
In a confessional, she continues, “It’s hard because I am the provider, and if we are going to do medical school and these hard things in life, we do need to be on the same page, especially if we end up moving to New York, where I wouldn’t even have the MomTok group.”
Despite the legitimate concerns she shares, Zac says, "I don’t really care.”
“I think the reason why I have a really hard time communicating my feelings toward Zac is because I feel like his first reaction is to fight or share his opinions instead of supporting or validating me," she explains in her confessional.
"Most important to me in this life is my relationship with God and my family, but obviously if things won’t get better, he knows that I won’t stay with him if I keep being treated this way.”
"I honestly think you're going to love New York. I'm honestly excited. I just hope that you can feel good about it as well," Zac tells a bundled-up Jen.
"Do you think I'll be missing anything at home with MomTok?" she asks.
"They're not that significant. They're just... I don't think you're going to be missing out. I honestly don't," he replies.
Taking a moment to think, Jen then adds, "I don't feel like you've been your happiest, best version. I feel like this would help you."
