Jennifer Affleck is set to appear in the reality TV show The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives
Jennifer Affleck, a mom of two, is a social media influencer who is set to appear in the upcoming reality TV show, The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The show centers around a group of TikTok moms from Utah. Her husband, Zac, will also appear in the series. In her recent viral post, Jen is getting her hair done at co-star Jessi Ngatikaura's salon.
She first made her familial ties with the Pearl Harbor star public in 2022, around the time Ben and Jennifer Lopez got hitched. In a TikTok video, Jennifer poked fun at not being the only Jennifer Affleck after Lopez took her husband's last name. The clip featured the influencer dancing in front of her toddler to the tunes of Wheels on the Bus, with the in-post title:
"When you thought you were going to be the next JLO. But instead... she stole your name & you’re busting it down to Ms. Rachel."
She captioned the video, "Can’t forget that Ben Affleck is my husband’s second cousin."
JLo filed for divorce from Ben this August after two years of marriage, listing their date of separation as April 26. Her petition requested that her maiden name be restored. In a November 2022 interview with Vogue, the On The Floor hitmaker addressed taking Ben's last name, stating:
"People are still going to call me Jennifer Lopez. But my legal name will be Mrs. Affleck because we’re joined together. We’re husband and wife. I’m proud of that. I don’t think that’s a problem."
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives debuts on Friday, September 6, on Hulu.
