UPDATE: Layla Taylor, star of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, has confirmed her new romance with Mason McWhorter in a revealing interview following the Season 3 premiere on Hulu today. The episode showcases Taylor’s journey of self-discovery as she navigates her identity within a predominantly white community while embracing her personal life.
In an exclusive conversation with Decider, Taylor discussed how she transitioned from a brief relationship with Mason’s brother, Chase McWhorter, to finding a deeper connection with Mason. “We always made the most sense, so I don’t know why we didn’t pursue each other first,” Taylor shared. The couple’s rekindled romance blossomed at Taylor’s birthday party, marking a turning point in her dating life.
Taylor, who has faced challenges as a Black woman in her community, emphasized the importance of self-advocacy this season. “I feel like I’ve definitely come more into myself as a person,” she stated, highlighting her decision to switch hairstylists to better cater to her specific hair type.
The latest season also dives into the ongoing drama among cast members, including tensions arising from Demi Engemann and Whitney Leavitt’s allegations against Marciano Brunette. “I think all the other women are starting to feel the same, and it’s just not getting us anywhere,” Taylor commented, reflecting on the impact of these disputes on their friendships.
In a surprising twist, Taylor revealed that even celebrities like Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis are fans of the show, expressing disbelief at their interest. “The fact that they like our show and are into it, it’s just so crazy,” she said, showcasing the show’s expanding influence.
As viewers tune into the season, they can expect more revelations and emotional moments from Taylor and her co-stars. Fans are left wondering how the dynamics will evolve as the drama continues to unfold.
