\"Jen<\/p>\n

\u201cDancing With The Stars\u201d contestants\u00a0Jen Affleck\u00a0and\u00a0Whitney Leavitt\u00a0address the rift in their friendship during the highly anticipated third season of \u201cSecret Lives of Mormon Wives.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a video shared by the\u00a0official \u201cSecret Lives\u201d Instagram, Jen discusses how being on \u201cDWTS\u201d has always been a dream of hers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve taken time away from MomTok to focus on my mental health,\u201d Jen began explaining to a producer in one of her confessionals at the start of the video.<\/p>\n

In the next clip,\u00a0Taylor Frankie Paul\u00a0is shown announcing to the group, \u201c\u2018Dancing With The Stars\u2019 wants to choose one of us,\u201d which caused Jen to squeal in excitement.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo way!\u201d she exclaimed.<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2018Dancing With The Stars\u2019 is literally one of my dreams,\u201d Jen continued during a confessional. \u201cI am in a way better place, so bring it on.\u201d<\/p>\n

As seen on previous seasons of \u201cMormon Wives,\u201d Jen and Whitney used to be very close, but\u00a0season 3 picked up after a rift had already formed\u00a0between the two castmates that neither could quite understand.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m really conflicted with my relationship with Whitney because a couple of months ago, she really was the only person that was there for me during the lowest point of my life, but the minute I left MomTok, I never heard from her,\u201d Jen admitted in a confessional. \u201cAnd then she became best friends with Demi, the one person that was bullying me during that time.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whitney denied the claim from some members of the group that she willingly chose to leave MomTok. In a conversation she had with Jen, Whitney claimed she was being forced out.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like you\u2019re just gone\u2026I did feel like it was transactional on your end,\u201d Jen said.<\/p>\n

\u201cWow, that is like\u2026I don\u2019t even know how to relate to that,\u201d Whitney replied.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s only what\u2019s convenient for you,\u201d Jen said. \u201cYou\u2019re there for me if it\u2019s convenient for you, to get back into MomTok.\u201d<\/p>\n

This offended Whitney. \u201cI\u2019m so done with it. It\u2019s so delusional,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you were really there for me and you weren\u2019t just using me to get back into MomTok, why would you then become friends with Demi, the one person that was bullying me during that time?\u201d asked Jen.<\/p>\n

Whitney explained that she didn\u2019t understand what Demi did, and Jen pointed to Demi\u2019s TikToks about her and her marriage while \u201ctrying to get the whole group to turn against me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m just saying I expected more from you,\u201d Jen said, though Whitney maintained that she only became close to Demi after Jen \u201cghosted\u201d her.<\/p>\n

\u201cI definitely think Whitney is only here for herself and her own opportunities, and that our friendships within the group were actually never real or genuine to her,\u201d Jen admitted in another confessional.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is exactly why I didn\u2019t want to come back,\u201d Whitney referred back to her argument with Jen. \u201cBut there\u2019s this amazing opportunity,\u00a0\u2018Dancing With The Stars,\u2019 and it\u2019s something that I want. So I\u2019m going to go after it, and there\u2019s no shame.\u201d<\/p>\n

In\u00a0an exclusive interview with E! News, Jen explained that her and Whitney tried to keep their issues out of the ballroom, but \u201cthere is no relationship,\u201d between them.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, some things happened, so we\u2019ve just taken a step back,\u201d Jen said.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause being on\u00a0\u2018Dancing With the Stars\u2019 was a dream of both of ours, we\u2014at least for me\u2014just wanted to make that experience only positive and leave the drama for our other show,\u201d Jen continued. \u201cUnfortunately, there [were] moments where it was hard [for it to not] bleed into\u00a0\u2018Dancing With the Stars.’\u201d<\/p>\n

She concluded, \u201cBut I\u2019m happy for her and it\u2019s a dream for her to be there, too. And honestly, even though we\u2019re not on good terms, I\u00a0do<\/em> hope she makes it far. That\u2019s all I have to say.\u201d<\/p>\n

Did you know\u00a0Florence Pugh<\/strong>\u00a0was such a Housewives fan? The Marvel actress knows her stuff! When asked on the red carpet which of the\u00a0<\/p>\n

Florence was asked many questions while promoting Thunderbolts. The movie features the Marvel superhero team-up featuring Florence\u2019s Yelena and some of the other Marvel dark horses like Winter Soldier (played by Sebastian Stan) and U.S. Agent (played by Wyatt Russell).\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWhich Housewife do you think could take on the Marvel Universe?\u201d E! News asked her.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cErika Jayne,\u201d she answered without missing a beat. The reporter agreed and she quickly added, \u201cLisa Rinna.\u201d She was nodding and doubling down on her choices. The reporter told her Lisa was also a really good answer.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe is a superhero,\u201d Florence explained about choosing Lisa. \u201cLisa Rinna is a superhero. She\u2019s like a female Bowie.\u201d<\/p>\n

Florence\u2019s answers show the actress does know her Housewives. She picked ladies who\u00a0won\u2019t stand for anything\u00a0and aren\u2019t afraid to\u00a0fight for themselves. And ironically they\u2019re both from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Those girls are tough! Lisa, in particular, is\u00a0an immovable object. Fans in the comments said that Lisa could \u201ctake down Thanos singlehandedly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Many fans agreed wholeheartedly with Florence\u2019s answers, while some shared their thoughts too. One commenter said, \u201cDorinda (Medley) after two martinis.\u201d Others added Lisa Vanderpump, Nene Leakes, and Luann de Lesseps.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Some fans added fun thoughts on which Housewife would\u00a0make a good villain\u00a0too. Some answered Phaedra Parks, Teresa Giudice, and Jen Shah.<\/p>\n

Bravo\u2019s official account gave Florence her flowers and even cheekily commented, \u201cOur girl had that answer ready to go!\u201d<\/p>\n
