The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Jessi Draper has Us doing a double take with her latest photo shoot.
Jessi, 33, teamed up with Vanderpump Villa’s Marciano Brunette for a steamy new shoot, per pictures shared by photographer Rachel Cook via Instagram on Thursday, April 9.
Jessi, of course, admitted to having an emotional affair with Marciano, 32, after they met in Italy while Jessi and her costars filmed an episode of Vanderpump Villa. At the time, Jessi was still with her estranged husband, Jordan Ngautikaura, who filed for divorce from the hairstylist last month.
In the snaps, the JZ Styles founder can be seen lounging on a picnic blanket in the sun as Marciano hovers above her and feeds her berries. Jessi looked glamorous in gingham-print romper, while Marciano wore a white vest and a baseball cap.
Another saucy photo shows Jessi resting her foot on Marciano’s leg while dousing him with a pitcher of lemonade.
“Before Adam and Eve left the Villa,” photographer Cook captioned the post.
Marciano responded, “You crushed these @therachcookie 👏👏.”
Jessi cryptically replied, “Uh oh 🔥😜.”
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast has had its fair share of overlap when it comes to hookups within the friend group. When the show premiered on Hulu in 2024, viewers were introduced to Jen Affleck and husband Zac Affleck, Demi Engemann and husband Bret Engemann, Whitney Leavitt and husband Conner Leavitt, Mikayla Matthews […]
Fans in the comments were naturally curious about the nature of Jessi and Marciano’s relationship given their history and Jessi’s impending divorce.
“OK, so maybe I’m a little bit lost. Are they together now?” one fan asked. Jessi responded, “All just for fun 😜.”
Jessi and Marciano had tongues wagging earlier this month when they were spotted together, per photos published by Reality Blurb. Marciano added fuel to the fire on Saturday, April 4, when he shared an Instagram video of him and Jessi holding hands. “Messi,” he captioned the video, which appears to be taken from the set of the pair’s steamy photo shoot.
Jessi’s ex Jordan, 31, filed for divorce from the hairstylist on March 19 after five years of marriage.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Draper shared her truth about her relationship with estranged husband Jordan Ngatikaura — and what ultimately led to their divorce. “I felt so trapped in that marriage. I couldn’t do anything right. I was so beaten down emotionally, and I was just so deeply unhappy,” Jessi said […]
“This has not been an easy decision and it comes with a heavy heart,” Jordan told Us Weekly in a statement at the time. “I’m grateful for the shared memories and the lessons. While our paths are now moving in different directions, my priority remains my children and ensuring they feel loved, supported, and protected through this transition.”
In an interview on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast on March 25, Jessi said she was the one who asked Jordan for a divorce first, admitting that their split had been a long time coming.
“In the last year, I’ve told him, actually, a few different times I want to get divorced, but he always calms me down,” she said. “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.”
Jessi claimed, “We agreed to tell our children together before filing, and we haven’t done that.”
