Jessi Draper Navigates New Romance Post-Divorce

Jessi Draper is exploring new romantic connections following her March divorce from Jordan Ngatikaura. In an upcoming podcast episode, the 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' star, 34, opens up about her anxieties regarding dating and finding a partner. Draper, who has two children, stated she would be open to dating someone without children, provided they are willing to embrace her existing family.

Since her separation, Draper has had notable interactions with potential suitors. In late March, she shared a kiss with Chase McWhorter, an ex of her co-star Miranda Hope, an act for which she later apologized. She explained that the connection with McWhorter stemmed from a vulnerable period post-divorce.

In April, Draper was also seen with former flame Marciano Brunette, 33. The pair even attended the 2026 AMAs together, making a red carpet appearance. Despite this public display, Draper clarified to PEOPLE that she is still single and that she and Brunette are "just spending time together," emphasizing her current focus on navigating her divorce without seeking a serious commitment.
