Mormon Wives Star Jessi Draper Accuses Ex of Escorts and Orgies in Explosive Interview
Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Draper has broken her silence on her divorce from Jordan Ngatikaura in a revealing new interview, where she makes serious allegations about his conduct during their marriage. The 33-year-old hair stylist appeared on the Call Her Daddy podcast with host Alex Cooper, delivering a candid account less than a week after Ngatikaura filed for divorce. Notably, the filing occurred on the same day that co-star Taylor Frankie Paul's season of The Bachelorette was canceled, adding to the dramatic timing.
Draper Blindsided by Divorce Filing
Draper expressed feeling "blindsided" by Ngatikaura's decision to file for divorce, revealing she learned about it through TMZ. "I did end it with him so I knew it was coming but we had made an agreement to do it together and he blindsided me and filed because he wanted the headline first," she told Cooper. Her heart sank further because they had agreed to inform their children together before any legal steps, a promise that remains unfulfilled, affecting his 13-year-old daughter from a previous marriage as well. The couple shares two young children, aged three and six, with Draper serving as a stepmother to Ngatikaura's older daughter.
Allegations of Infidelity and Escort Services
Draper accused Ngatikaura of being unfaithful, a detail kept hidden from their hit Hulu series. She recounted that after season one aired, a woman who worked for an escort service contacted her with proof. "She sent me so much proof... And she sent the screenshots and it’s his phone number. She wouldn't have known his phone number," Draper explained, noting the incident allegedly occurred while Ngatikaura was in Texas for summer sales before the show filmed. Despite his denials, Draper stands by the claims, and The Independent has reached out to Ngatikaura for comment.
Rumors of Sex Parties as Final Straw
Weeks before their marriage ended, Draper heard rumors about Ngatikaura attending "sex parties," which she described as the "final straw." "I have to believe they are orgies, like sex parties," she said, adding that she heard about it through her sister from someone who was present, and it has since been reported elsewhere. "So I’m like, clearly there’s some truth to it." She remains uncertain if Ngatikaura used shared finances for these alleged activities, as they only recently separated their accounts.
Background and Context
The divorce stems from multiple issues over their five-year marriage, some depicted on the show, including Draper's emotional affair with Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette. Meanwhile, Stassi Schroeder is set to host the season three reunion of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, keeping the spotlight on the franchise. Draper's interview sheds light on the personal turmoil behind the scenes, highlighting the complexities of their relationship and the shocking allegations that have now come to light.
