Jordan Ngatikaura Files for Divorce From ‘Mormon Wives’ Star Jessi Draper in Utah

The move follows years of televised marital strife, with the prenup’s validity now in question.

Overview

  • Utah court records show Ngatikaura filed on March 19 after five years of marriage to Draper.
  • In a public statement, he called the decision difficult, said he will prioritize their children, and requested privacy.
  • The couple shares two children, Jagger and Jovi, and Ngatikaura also has an older daughter, Peyton, from a previous relationship.
  • The filing coincided with ABC canceling co-star Taylor Frankie Paul’s Bachelorette season, while ‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ production is paused during an investigation involving Paul.
  • On the show, Draper raised concerns that their prenuptial agreement may be invalid due to missing witness signatures, and prior seasons documented an emotional affair, a 90-day separation, and therapy.
