‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ star Whitney Leavitt addresses decision to leave MomTok

“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”The new Hulu reality show follows a group of Utah-based Mormon TikTok moms including Whitney Leavitt, who finds herself on the outs of the click and ultimately decides to leave MomTok by the finale.Leavitt, 31, exclusively told The Post that, while she hasn’t seen the show yet, she stands by her decision.“I think that once the show comes out, I’m hoping that I’ll be able to have more of an opportunity to share why I made that decision, rather than it just be from the show,” she explained.“But how I feel about it now is I still feel… I’m content,” Leavitt said. Since she’s no longer apart of MomTok, it begs the question if Leavitt will continue appearing on the reality show if it returns for Season 2.“I think my best answer to that question is I want to wait to see it,” she said.
