“Is Jen possibly still filming S2???”
Many fans of the series are curious whether Affleck is filming episodes for the second season, which will be released on Hulu in spring 2025.
TikTok content creator Stephanie Tleiji, who goes by @stephwithdadeets provided an insight into this burning question in the app.
“Is Jen Affleck still part of ‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?'” Tleiji started her video. “Let me explain why I question this now. Earlier this week, we learned that Taylor and Layla traveled to New York City. We now know that you traveled to New York City for 24 hours to do a shoot with MCoBeauty, and you weren’t alone. You were with the film crew for “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”

Tleiji said many people have commented on her posts about Affleck’s recent visit to New York City. It was around this time that Affleck broke her social media silence in early December. She said that people said they saw Affleck in NYC and that now seems “true” based on their stories.
“Today, for the first time in a long time, Jen made multiple posts about her story, saying, ‘Even though life has been challenging, it has made me appreciate many of the blessings that God has given me,'” Tleiji said. “She continued, ‘Most days I had a hard time getting out of bed, but this week was the first time in a long time that I felt like myself.'”
Jen Affleck also worked with MCoBeauty
Tleiji continued to share more about what Affleck was up to.
“And here it is! She says: ‘I had the opportunity to work with MCoBeauty this week and I cannot express how grateful I am. You made me feel absolutely beautiful,'” Tleiji shared. “I’m going to take a wild guess and say she ran the same campaign as Layla and Taylor Frankie Paul.”
On November 12, Layla unfollowed Affleck, as did Jessi and Demi.
“I checked today, I literally just took this screenshot, Layla is following Jen again, but Demi and Jessi aren’t,” Tleiji continued. “It would make sense if they all worked together for MCoBeauty on this project, they followed each other again.”
Tleiji then questioned whether Affleck is still filming the second season of the hit reality show. The answer remains to be seen.
