Reality TV fans are living for this crossover between The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and Dancing With the Stars! When Jen Affleck and Whitney Leavitt were both announced for Season 34, everyone expected double the fun, matching sparkles, and some serious “MomTok” energy on the dance floor.
But as the weeks rolled on, the vibe between the two started feeling… off. What started as supportive comments and cute behind-the-scenes moments slowly turned into cryptic remarks and subtle shade that fans couldn’t ignore.
Now, everyone wants to know about what really went down between the former friends. Did the reality TV pressure get to them or something deeper? Either way, this DWTS duo definitely brought more than just dance drama.
Why are Whitney Leavitt and Jen Affleck feuding?
Whitney Leavitt and Jen Affleck’s friendship seemed totally solid when Dancing With the Stars Season 34 kicked off. The two already shared reality TV roots from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, so fans figured they’d be each other’s biggest cheerleaders. Affleck told New York Post,
Having Whitney, knowing that she’s already a friend of mine and we work together — I think it’s just gonna make the experience even more exciting.

But after Affleck’s elimination during the Halloween episode, things took a weird turn. During a Tiktok livestream, Affleck threw subtle shade when someone asked who she was rooting for, she cryptically made a statement that saying,
I would be rooting for a former MomTok person, but we won’t be getting into that. You’ll just have to wait for season three
Yeah… everyone instantly knew she meant Whitney Leavitt.
Moreover, the reality star was also asked about the rumours and she told E! News,
I’m trying not to focus on that. Just trying to focus on all the people that are supporting us, because I’m so grateful for them. It motivates us, it keeps us going, so thank you.
Meanwhile, Leavitt kept it classy and said nice things about Affleck’s performance. She told PEOPLE,
It sucks because all of us work so hard to be here. She worked so hard. I loved her dance tonight.
Neither’s spilled the full tea yet, but something definitely went down off-camera.
When is The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 3 premiering?
Mark your calendars, because The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is officially back! Season 3 premieres on November 13, 2025, streaming on Hulu and Disney+, and it’s already shaping up to be their most dramatic one yet.
