The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Draper was recently caught getting close with Miranda Hope’s ex-husband. On March 26, Hope posted photos of apology flowers that she received from Draper on her social media.
There was a note that went along with the bouquet that said: “I completely understand you being upset with me but wanted to send you a little something to let you know I’m thinking about you and I am so, so sorry.”
The flowers were delivered after a blog post claimed that Draper was cozying up to Hope’s ex-husband, Chase McWhorter. Sources told TMZ that the pair kissed, which has “never happened before.” They also claim that McWhorter came clean to Hope the next day and has been apologizing to her.
It’s unclear whether Hope has accepted the apologies from him or her co-star, but she added a caption to the bouquet photo that said: “Received the prettiest flowers just minutes ago.” She ended it with an upside-down smiling face emoji.
Hope and McWhorter met shortly after she graduated from high school. They tied the knot in 2017 and announced their divorce in 2024, although they claimed that it was amicable. They share two children, Brooks and Cohen, who they co-parent.
Draper’s husband, Jordan Ngatikaura, filed for divorce from her earlier in the month, which has already led to public drama. On the March 25 episode of Call Her Daddy, Draper claimed that Ngatikaura was blackmailing her over her affair with Marciano Brunette, another reality television personality. Draper says that Ngatikaura threatened to post evidence of the affair to TikTok, and when she chased him around the house to grab his phone, he compared her to Taylor Frankie Paul.
Paul is another star on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives who has been making headlines lately for her domestic violence incidents, which led to this season of The Bachelorette being canceled.
