In a recent TikTok video, Jennifer Affleck, star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, was seen dancing around her home without her wedding ring, prompting fans to question the state of her marriage to Zac Affleck. The video, posted on October 9, features Jennifer and her two children, but the absence of her ring quickly sparked rumors about a potential breakup.
However, an insider clarified to PEOPLE that these speculations are unfounded. According to the source, Jennifer frequently goes without her wedding ring, a choice that has never bothered her husband. The couple is reportedly still going strong, currently filming the second season of their hit Hulu series at their residence.
The first season concluded with Jennifer facing challenges related to Zac’s medical school aspirations and the possibility of relocating. In September, the couple sold their home in Orem, Utah, leading to further speculation about her future on the show. Yet, the insider revealed that Jennifer returned to Utah around the time the show’s renewal was confirmed.
The season finale also featured a dramatic moment where Jennifer informed co-star Jessi Ngatikaura about her plans regarding Zac, stating, “Jen told me that she’s leaving MomTok because of Zac.” Ngatikaura expressed concerns that Zac might have issued an ultimatum to Jennifer, a sentiment echoed by her fellow cast member Demi Engemann during the episode. Scenes showed the couple exploring New York City, where Zac was accepted into medical school, hinting at their ongoing commitment to each other.
Additionally, the couple faced scrutiny regarding their supposed ties to Hollywood stars Ben and Casey Affleck. While Jennifer claimed her father-in-law, David Affleck, is the cousin of the famous brothers, a source familiar with the Utah Affleck family stated that this connection is “absolutely not true.”
