When the Hulu series premiered in September 2024, it starred soft swinger Taylor Frankie Paul and her TikTok mom frenemies Demi Engemann, Mayci Neeley, Mikayla Matthews, Jen Affleck, Whitney Leavitt, Jessi Ngatikaura [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">She continued, \u201cI was so, so depressed. \u2026 I never thought of really doing anything to hurt myself because I knew it would crush my family \u2014 and having my baby in my belly. I knew it wasn\u2019t an option.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Mayci also told <i>Us <\/i>how growing up a member of the Mormon church affected her pregnancy overall.<\/p>\n<div id=\"news-block\">\n<div class=\"newsletter-form  \">\n<div class=\"newsletter-signup__success\" aria-live=\"polite\">\n<h3>Thank You!<\/h3>\n<p>You have successfully subscribed.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThose are definitely against the guidelines in the church.

Then I got into a really religious space once my son\u2019s father passed away because I had to make sense of it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Mayci further explained why she chose to \u201cturn toward\u201d religion even more in light of Arik\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI chose to turn toward it because I needed it to make sense. As far as now goes, I feel like I\u2019m somewhat in the middle,\u201d the reality TV star said of her relationship with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/celebrity-news\/pictures\/stars-who-grew-up-mormon-what-theyve-said-about-the-church\/\">the Church of Latter-Day Saints<\/a>. \u201cI\u2019ve always been someone who\u2019s kind of in the middle. The things that I focus on \u2014 at least in my religion \u2014 is my relationship with God and being a good person. That is what matters, and making sure my kids feel love and become good people too.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/celebrity-moms\/news\/mormon-wives-mayci-neeley-reveals-sons-reaction-during-sex-talk\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Mayci Neeley quickly learned how to best discuss the birds and the bees with her 10-year-old son, Hudson.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":297910,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[168],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-297909","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-entertainment"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297909","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=297909"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/297909\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=297909"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=297909"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newhampshiredigitalnews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=297909"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
