[But] there are loads of Mormon women within the forged. I feel there’s solely two of us that aren’t married.”
Additionally, don’t neglect that a number of of the OG Mormon Wives additionally weren’t Mormon or married.

Regardless, she feels she nonetheless has “sufficient ties to” Mormonism to justify her spot on the present:
“I can’t disagree that one thing like Secret Lives of OC Wives or OC Influencers would have possibly been a title that makes extra sense. However not even all the women are influencers. I don’t know. Actually, I don’t actually care. I positively really feel like I’ve sufficient ties to Mormons.”
