Are Jessi and Jordan Still Together? An In-Depth Look
Relationship History
Jessi and Jordan Ngatikaura’s relationship has been well-documented, especially as it’s played out on the reality show The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Before marrying Jordan, Jessi was married to her first husband, Zach (sometimes written as Zac Gish), for five years. After their divorce—which, according to community sources, involved Jessi’s initial relationship with Jordan—they began building a blended family that included Jessi’s son, Jordan’s daughter Peyton from a previous relationship, and, later, their own children together.
Jordan proposed to Jessi in February 2020, and they married on October 8, 2020. Their relationship appeared to be loving and united, with both frequently sharing affectionate posts on social media, celebrating anniversaries, parenthood milestones, and family achievements.

Public appearances have included TikTok and Instagram videos that showcase them enjoying family time and supporting each other's ventures, both before and after the onset of relationship rumors.
Rumors, Infidelity Allegations, and Recent Challenges
The relationship endured a significant test during and after Season 2 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The season ended with a shocking claim from Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette, who alleged that he and Jessi had an affair. Jessi denied the allegations, insisting there was "so much more to the story" and saying she would speak more openly in the future. In multiple interviews including the May 2025 episode of The Viall Files podcast Jessi admitted that the couple was “working through things” and that their marriage was facing a rough patch, but was not over. Notably, she wasn't wearing her wedding ring in some of these appearances, a detail that was discussed openly.
Jordan has not publicly addressed the cheating allegations in detail, but his supportive posts and their joint appearances on social media have continued, including a TikTok posted in June 2025 where the pair appeared affectionate and playful, seemingly signaling unity despite ongoing drama.
Current Status and Expert Opinions (As of July 2025)
As of July 2025, Jessi and Jordan are still together and remain married, but their relationship is publicly acknowledged to be in a challenging phase. During the July 1, 2025, Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Reunion Special, both addressed their struggles, with Jessi stating, “We’re both going through a lot right now, but I think he’s willing to tell his truth, too, and he’s been very vulnerable throughout Season 3, so we both just laid it all out there. There’s a lot more to the story, and it’s not what you think it is”.

Multiple reliable sources confirm that while the pair is "working through things," Jessi and Jordan continue to share public family moments, such as Jessi’s Father’s Day tribute to Jordan, indicating that—at least outwardly—they are choosing to support each other. Relationship experts commenting on high-profile reality TV marriages note that such public scrutiny can intensify existing issues, but the Ngatikauras' willingness to discuss their struggles and remain in therapy or counseling (suggested by Jessi’s comments about "working through" their problems) are positive signs for couples navigating similar adversity.
