Infidelity Issues in The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives

Whitney Leavitt and her husband have faced their fair share of infidelity issues, which goes beyond the recent MomTok scandal.

It seems that each member of the cast of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives has a unique twist or hook. In this case, Whitney’s husband, Conner, was caught using Tinder.

To his credit, Conner has admitted to using the dating app and has opened up about his childhood trauma. However, his claims of having an “addiction” might not sit well with viewers of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

Conner’s Tinder Scandal

Warning: the discussion of Whitney Leavitt’s husband’s Tinder scandal involves serious and upsetting topics, including sexual assault and child abuse.

As seen in the TikTok video below, Whitney and Conner had their own scandal amidst the broader Mormon MomTok drama.

Conner was on Tinder, and although he claimed he wasn’t seeking an affair, he did admit to using the dating app.

In a somber, 7-minute video, Whitney Leavitt and her husband, Conner, delved into his Tinder scandal.

Conner explained that he had a profile on Tinder, but emphasized that it stemmed from an “addiction.”

It appears that Whitney’s husband is alleging that he has a self-destructive habit. While this might not be a recognized psychiatric condition, it can still lead to harmful behaviors.

Conner’s Past Trauma

The more pressing issue was why Conner was using a dating app in the first place. He opened up about his childhood trauma, revealing that he was a victim of sexual assault at the age of 5.

Conner expressed regret for not sharing this with his wife sooner. It’s devastating to hear about his experience, and one can only hope that he has been able to process his trauma through counseling.

It’s essential to recognize that childhood trauma can have long-lasting effects, and people may develop various coping mechanisms to process their experiences. Sometimes, these mechanisms can take the form of self-destructive behaviors, like creating a Tinder profile when happily married.

We can only hope that Conner has been able to find a way to heal and move forward from his past trauma.
