“Villa Vanderpump” star Marciano Brunette has fans reading between the lines after sharing a few cryptic stories on Instagram Friday night. And these stories have interesting timing – shortly afterwards”Mormon wives” star Jessica Draper‘s divorce became public.
The two reality stars, who previously admitted to having an emotional affair after meeting on a crossover episode of the two shows, are now fueling further speculation after being spotted together in Salt Lake City.
Shortly after Marciano shared the mysterious IG stories, the internet got to work deciphering what’s going on and even proving that it’s actually Jessi he’s with. Let’s go…
Marciano Shares IG Stories That Scream He’s With Jessi
Marciano clearly knows what his IG followers want – mystery, intrigue and a good story – and that’s exactly what he gave them Friday night.
The “Vanderpump Villa” star shared an IG story of him at the airport with no context, right before sharing a few stories that lead into the plot of his return to Utah. But unlike the last time he did this, just a few weeks ago (which happened to be for “Mormon Wives” star Chase McWhorter’s birthday celebration), there are clues in these stories that lead to Jessi.
The next story is of a margarita with a woman in the background of the photo, the photo conveniently cutting off her head. But what we can see is hair that appears to be Jessi’s.
The next photo he shared was of a Swig mug. Anyone who watches “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” knows that it’s their drink of choice: a good dirty Swig soda. The clues are therefore revealing!
TikTok video shows more evidence it’s Jessi with Marciano
It didn’t take long before viral TikToker @stephwithdaddeets broke down what was going on and with some receipts.
She first shared something she saw on Deuxmoi: “What’s the last thing you heard about ‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’?” and the response was: “I saw Jessi and Marciano from SLOMW at Sol Agave in SLC on a date. Good for her?”
She then shared Marciano’s margarita IG story which confirms this claim.
“I guess it’s the Sol Agave place and the person in the background seems to be Jessi,” she said. “And I say I guess it’s the Sol Agave place because when I searched, Sol Agave Salt Lake City, that’s what their margaritas look like. Um, it looks a lot like it.”
She then talked about Marciano’s next IG story, the Swig cut photo. But she also noticed something in the background that proves once again that the two were together.
“So it looks like they went to Swig,” she continued. “But look at the walls in the background. It looks like it might be Jessi’s new house.” She then shared another photo shared by Jessi that matches the same kitchen walls.
TikTok viewers had a lot to say
“Mormon Wives” fans took to Steph’s comments section to share some of their thoughts, and it seems some are happy for her and others, not so much.
“Honestly what is wrong with Jessi,” one person wrote. Another added: “‘At least it’s not Chase’ but wasn’t Chase like 3 days ago even though I’m so confused.”
One viewer shared, “They totally hang out, but you know what? Honestly, I love that for her. She really put me on her side during this divorce because unfortunately, I can relate to some things when it comes to her marriage to Jordan.”
Another person seemed to agree with this thought, sharing, “I love it!! If they really hang out and it’s not just for drama, I’m happy for them. I think she really likes him and I also think he really cares about her too.”
Many others just wished the show was filming because it’s reality TV gold.
‘Mormon Wives’ Star Mikayla Matthews weighs in
All this confusion and mystery swirling online means that eventually, another “Mormon Wives” star will step in and at just the right time…there’s Mikayla Matthews giving the fans what they want.
“Mooded because I just found out some new information about someone in my group,” she wrote on her TikTok video. She captioned it: “Cut the show, I’m done.”
For anyone who doesn’t know what she’s referring to, viewers in the comments section have it all figured out.
“It’s because this girl posted Jessi and Marciano together on TikTok like 10 hours ago,” one person wrote. Another added: “The Jessi and Marciano video was right on top of this one. And another said: “So we’re all learning about Jessi and Marciano rn? »
To address the fact that the cameras aren’t rolling to capture all those hot Season 5 images, one person suggested, “Can you just film Season 5 yourselves? Camera recorder/Blair Witch style.” (I’m not going to lie – this sounds like a great plan! Can you make it happen, please, Mikayla?)
“Looks like Mayci and Mikayla aren’t fans of Jessi and Marciano reuniting”
Steph shared another video about Jessi and Marciano’s encounter, but this time the focus is on what Mayci Neeley and Mikayla from “Mormon Wives” have to say about it. She shared that another TikTok user posted photos from Marciano and Jessi’s night out and that Mikayla and Mayci commented on the post.
“Mayci commented, ‘Okay…I give up,’ and Mikayla commented, ‘That’s it, I’m fucking done,'” Steph said. “And after the news broke, Mikayla posted this video last night.” She then shows a clip from Mikayla’s TikTok video, seen above.
Overall, no matter what viewers think, it seems like they all like the added drama online since season 5 is not currently filming.
“Summer House and SLOMW keep trying to outdo each other every day,” one viewer wrote in the comments. Another said: “I knew she was going to come back to him. Another shared: “Jessi here doing her best to get those cameras rolling again.”
