Published 1 month ago3 minute read

Another bundle of joy is on the way! The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star is pregnant and expecting baby No. 3 with her husband, .

“I was a few days late, and while it was a surprise, we both had a feeling there was another baby waiting for us,” she told People in a statement on Tuesday, February 11. “We were very excited, there were a lot of emotions after a very crazy year!”

The couple are already proud parents of Nora, 3, and 19-month-old Lucas, and revealed their daughter is really looking forward to having another sibling.

“Nora has been hoping for a little sister, and I can tell she really wants it to be a girl!” Jennifer, 25, revealed, noting that she and Zac are opting to wait until delivery day to find out. “I have a strong feeling it’s a girl. I’ve dreamed about this little girl for a while now, and I truly believe she’s the one I’m carrying.”

“The first trimester was really challenging mentally and physically; I experienced all the symptoms—nausea, vomiting, fatigue, and mood swings. It’s definitely been chaotic, no doubt about it.”

Jennifer said that she has her work cut out for her this time around, noting, “I thought having two kids back-to-back was tough, but this has taken things to a whole new level.”

“With the stress of work, motherhood, and the challenges that come with pregnancy, it’s been a lot,” the reality star told the publication. “On top of that, I had some strong cravings and aversions — all I wanted was pho and limes with salt!”

The expectant Hulu personality said that she is focused on the well-being of her family after going through “many dark days” following season 1, admitting that it not only took a “toll” on her marriage but also her mental health.

Jen and Zac met on a Mormon dating app in 2018 and tied the knot in June 2019, expanding their brood twice before making their reality TV debut. Jen said in September 2024 that she and Zac started doing “nonstop therapy” after they stopped filming.

As In Touch previously reported, Jen and Zac’s marital woes were a hot topic on season 1. During a tense scene, Zac said he wanted a divorce after Jen and her fellow MomTok influencers were planning to go to a Chippendales performance.

The finale cliffhanger teased a potential breakup, though Jen and Zac stuck through it and remained together. Jen also publicly denied that her husband had anything to do with her leaving MomTok prior to the couple’s pregnancy announcement.

“It had a lot to do with just me and just figuring out everything,” she said. “There are so many factors — not just our relationship — like religion, friendships and my children.”

After the show premiered, viewers quickly noticed that her last name sounded awfully familiar to an A-lister — none other than — and Jen clarified how they are related amid ongoing fan speculation.

“Ben and [brother] [Affleck] is Zac’s dad’s second cousin,” she told the New York Post in September 2024.

The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives was renewed for a second season the following month and will premiere in spring 2025.
