And as for how she and Connor are doing after sharing some of the more difficult aspects of their relationship on the show, Whitney reassured everyone that they are “in a great place, we’re better than ever.”
“I think it was, just because of what we shared and our personal lives,” she continued. “It was like, the most traumatic thing we’ve gone through in our marriage, and I feel like that was hard to share, but we came out stronger the other end.”
For now, she and Connor are focusing on their new baby, with Whitney joking that as her due date is in four weeks, she could very well “go into labor on this red carpet.”
They are also looking ahead to the future of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, as Whitney is “pretty positive” they’ll get a season two. And when it comes to the past season of the show, she knows she very much got the “villain edit,” explaining that she’s avoided much of the online conversation about the show in order to save her sanity.
