Season 2 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives debuted on May 15, and fans once again cannot get enough of the drama that seemingly follows the #MomTok friend group everywhere.

But aside from the scandals and gossip, the next most shocking thing about the cast might just be how many children they collectively have. Between Taylor Frankie Paul, Jessi Ngatikaura, Demi Engemann, Mayci Neely, Layla Taylor, Mikayla Matthews, Whitney Leavitt, Jen Affleck, and Miranda McWhorter, there are 22 kids in the Mormon Wives family tree, with an additional three babies on the way.

Here's what you need to know about each cast member's family while we wait for this highly-anticipated saga to continue!

Taylor Frankie Paul

Taylor, who's 31, and her ex-husband, Tate Paul, share two kids: Indy May and Ocean. Their daughter, Indy, was born in August 2017, and Ocean entered the world in June 2020.

Then, in March 2024, Taylor and her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen, had their first son together and named him Ever.

The Mormon Wives star has acknowledged that her baby names are more unconventional, saying on TikTok, "The names I love are not just for everyone. I feel like they're kinda unique." As for why she chose the name Ever for her latest, it reportedly means "always, eternity, and strong as a boar."

Jessi Ngatikaura

Jessi Ngatikaura and her husband, Jordan Ngatikaura, tied the knot on October 8, 2020, and the couple shares two biological children.

First, their son Jagger Zayn was born in April 2020. Later, in January 2023, they added a new baby girl to their family, Jovi. Similar to Taylor, Jessi also detailed the thought process behind her children's unorthodox names.

"We chose Jovi because we have a son named Jagger, and I liked the theme of, like, old rock and roll–Bon Jovi, Mick Jagger. I just felt like they really went well together," she said on TikTok.

Jessi is also a stepmother to Peyton, Jordan's 12-year-old daughter from a previous relationship.

Demi Engemann

Demi Engemann, 31, was previously married to Blake Corbin for five years, and together, they had a daughter named Maude. However, in 2020, the pair decided to divorce.

Since then, she's remarried Bret Engemann. They tied the knot in 2021, and the union expanded their family since Demi became the stepmother of Bret's sons, Cole and Rome Engemann.

Still, Demi apparently wants to have another baby and discussed her fertility struggles during the show's second season, calling it "so taxing and emotionally draining."

"It's more how bad Maude wants a sibling and how bad I want that with someone that I'm in love with," she shared.

Mayci Neely

Mayci's first child, Hudson, was born in September 2015, just under six months after Arick Mack, his father, sadly passed away in a car crash. The 30-year-old got married to Jacob Neeley years later, in 2018, and he legally adopted Hudson.

Now, the pair shares another daughter, Harlow, who was born in February 2021, and they are expecting a third. Mayci revealed the news of her pregnancy in February 2025, saying that her kids were "so excited" about the prospect of having another sibling. (via PEOPLE)

Mikayla Matthews

Mikayla Matthews was just 16 when she became pregnant with Beckham Jace, her first child, and later welcomed him into the world on July 3, 2017. She went on to have her first daughter, Haven Monroe, in August 2019 and another daughter, Tommie Grace, in November 2021.

However, Mikayla's family tree isn't finished. Back in February, she announced that she was pregnant again and expressed her desire to continue having more children.

"I'm surrounded by Mormon culture still, and my husband's siblings all have so many kids. They're like, 'Once you hit three kids, you can have 10 kids.' That's kind of the mindset I have," she told PEOPLE.

"When people ask me how many kids I want, I'm like, 'I've always wanted three or four, but I could see myself having six.'"

Whitney Leavitt

Whitney Leavitt, 32, and her husband, Connor Leavitt, tied the knot in Provo, Utah, in 2016. They've gone on to have three children, Sedona, Liam, and Billy Gene, who were born in 2019, 2021, and 2024, respectively.

Unlike Mikayla, though, it seems that Whitney and Connor are satisfied with their current child count. So, it remains unclear whether they'll be adding any more babies to the household.

"We are most excited about having our family complete. We've always wanted three kids, and we're so happy everyone's here now," Whitney told PEOPLE following Billy Gene's arrival.

Jen Affleck

Jen Affleck, who's 25, got married to her husband, Zac Affleck, in 2019. Now, they have two kids and are expecting their third.

Their daughter, Nora, was born in November 2021, and their son, Lucas, entered the world in July 2023. Jen is expected to deliver her newest addition later in the year and shared how excited her kids were, particularly Nora, to potentially have a baby sister.

Layla Taylor

Layla Taylor is 24 years old and a mother of two. She and her ex-husband, Clayton Wessel, have two sons, Oliver "Ollie" Clay and Maxwell Dean.

But in 2023, Layla filed for divorce after three years of marriage and became a single mom of two toddlers.
