Mormon Wives Star Jen Affleck Files for Divorce While Pregnant

Jen Affleck has filed for divorce from her husband Zac Affleck after seven years of marriage, according to court documents obtained by PEOPLE.

The 27-year-old reality star filed the paperwork on Tuesday, November 3, in the Fourth Judicial District Court in Provo, Utah.

She is currently pregnant with the couple's fourth child.

Jen and Zac Affleck met in 2018 on a Mormon dating app called Mutual.

Jen was 18 at the time; Zac was 21.

They got engaged and married the following year, in 2019.

The couple has three children together: daughters Nora, 5, and Penelope, 16 months, and son Luca, 3.

Jen announced her fourth pregnancy in June 2025, posting a series of photos on Instagram in a flowy yellow halterneck dress with her baby bump visible.

She captioned the post: "Chapter Four."

The divorce filing comes just days before the premiere of the Hulu spin-off The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County, which debuts on November 12.

Jen is a cast member on the new show.

She and Zac had relocated from Utah to Orange County in recent years.

The news also arrives as the family celebrated Nora's fifth birthday.

Both Jen and Zac posted about the birthday on their Instagram Stories.

Zac shared a photo with his daughter and wrote: "This girl turned 5 today (This was one year ago. Gosh, time flies)."

He added: "She truly is the sweetest girl with the biggest heart. So lucky to be her dad."

Jen shared a snap of Nora with a new bike, surrounded by balloons and decorations, writing: "I can't believe she's already 5."

Jen Affleck rose to fame on social media for her content as a young Mormon mother.

She became part of MomTok, a viral group of Utah-based mom influencers on TikTok.

In 2024, she was cast in Hulu's reality docuseries The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, which followed the dynamics of the MomTok group.

During season 1 of the show, viewers saw Jen and Zac go through a rough patch.

They nearly called it quits before deciding to keep working on their relationship.

According to PEOPLE, they argued about Zac's gambling and Jen's choice to potentially attend a Chippendales show in Las Vegas.

In 2024, after the show premiered, Jen told Us Weekly: "Ever since we finished filming, we've been doing nonstop therapy, and it's been great."

She added: "So if anything, [watching the show] is just going to be exposure therapy at this point."

"We've healed, and now we're ready to talk about it once it comes out," she said.

In a 2024 Instagram post, Jen reflected on her marriage.

"We were just kids when we got married," she wrote.

"Young, naive, and inexperienced, we truly had no idea what we were getting ourselves into."

She continued: "We didn't always see eye to eye, and a lot of times, we still don't. But that's what marriage is, we keep trying."

"I truly believe there were lessons we both needed to teach each other," she added.

"I couldn't have done it without Zac," she wrote.

"Is Zac perfect? No. Does he have flaws that we've needed to address? Yes. But I can confidently say he's always supported and believed in me more than anyone else."

In that same post, Jen detailed how Zac supported her financially and emotionally from the start.

"Zac bought me my first laptop when he had $10 in his bank account," she wrote.

"When I shared my dream of running a marathon, he trained alongside me and ran it with me."

"I told him I wanted to start my videography business, so he saved up money and bought me my first camera."

"When we were expecting our first baby, I wanted a place to call home, so he worked hard, saved up, and bought us our first house."

She concluded: "He gave me both stability and freedom, which allowed me to post videos online and launch my career on social media. This, in turn allowed me to support him and our family while he's been in school."

Jen also denied that her husband had anything to do with her leaving MomTok.

"It had a lot to do with just me and just figuring out everything," she told Us Weekly.

"There are so many factors — not just our relationship — like religion, friendships and my children."

She continued: "In order to make the right decision for me and my family, I really had to take a step back and ask myself, 'How am I going to move forward and what's best for us?'"

After season 1 of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives aired, Jen and Zac briefly separated.

Their separation was a major plotline featured in season 2 of the show.

During their separation, Jen discovered she was pregnant with their third child.

They continued to appear on seasons 3 through 5 of the show together.

While Jen competed on season 34 of Dancing with the Stars, Zac was seen in the audience and on social media supporting her.

ABC News has reached out to representatives of Jen Affleck for comment.

The Walt Disney Co. is the parent company of ABC News and Hulu.

The divorce filing raises questions about Jen's future on the Mormon Wives franchise.
