If you haven’t watched it yet, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 4 was pretty tumultuous. After discussing resuming her maiden name of Jessi Draper, Jessi Ngatikaura subsequently separated from her husband.
Now we hear that Jordan Ngatikaura has not only filed for divorce, but he wants a restraining order against his estranged wife. However, it seems that Jessi is trying to fight it.
According to court documents, Jordan filed for the TRO on March 20 as a part of his divorce case. Jessi filed her opposition to the TRO the same day.
Jordan Ngatikaura recently filed for divorce from wife Jessi
Following five years of marriage and two children together, Jordan filed for divorce on March 19. Viewers of SLOMW have watched Jordan and Jessi separate multiple times before, but they have never actually filed for divorce until now. The couple also listed their Salt Lake City home for sale last fall, adding to the speculation that they were splitting up.
“This has not been an easy decision, and it comes with a heavy heart,” Jordan told TMZ last week. “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.”
“I am committed to handling this next chapter with kindness and respect,” the DadTok member added. “I kindly ask for privacy and understanding as we navigate this as a family.”
After complaining of unhappiness in her marriage, Jessi got involved with server Marciano Brunette when the ladies visited Vanderpump Villa in Season 3. Though they tried to work through their problems, the couple eventually separated. Jessi blamed their issues on her then-husband’s “emotional abuse,” but the affair drove a wedge further into their relationship.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Season 4 is now streaming on Hulu.
