No caffeine, no alcohol, and no premarital sex are just a few of the rules of Mormonism. “Soft swinging” is definitely not in the Word of Wisdom, but it might as well be. The term was popularized by OG MomToker Taylor Frankie Paul, who stars in the new Hulu reality series The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.

In June 2022, Taylor discussed a series of events that had taken place — all surrounding “soft swinging” adventures with her group of friends. “Soft swinging” is the term she used to refer to intimacy outside of her marriage, albeit with restrictions. The “soft swinging” scandal sent shockwaves through her MomTok community and threatened to destroy what they had built on TikTok. Only one other woman (who is on the show) was connected to the original scandal: Whitney Leavitt.
Over the course of the first season, viewers will be introduced to all the moms in the MomTok circle. From Taylor to one of Ben Affleck's relatives, scroll down for the scoop on the eight women at the center of the series.
