Entertainment Weekly

The cast is not holding back. In this video, Mikayla Matthews and Mayci Neeley call out their 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' co-star, Whitney Leavitt. They discuss her return from 'Dancing with the Stars' and why they feel you can't be a victim and a villain simultaneously.

00:00She, like, we knew she was just coming back for Dancing with the Stars.

00:02I'm like, oh, so you don't care about us.

00:04I think in season, was it season two?

00:06Yeah, season two, I was like, I stuck very firm with these things.

00:10Because, again, there's things viewers are not seeing.

00:14They don't get the full picture.

00:15We're filming for hours.

00:16You guys are seeing two minutes of this.

00:18So if anyone's going to know it, trust me, it's us.

00:21And, I mean, mine and Whitney's relationship, obviously, is at a different place now.

00:25But I'll still say I still stand by all the characteristics that I was seeing.

00:30Like, they're coming back and forth.

00:31They're coming for only opportunities.

00:33And that's what I was trying to say the whole time.

00:35Like, when I'm like, yeah, no s***, we're filming a reality show, Whitney.

00:39But also, there are real friendships.

00:41And so it was confusing to have her.

00:44And I think she was confused, too.

00:45I think two things can be true.

00:47I think she can miss the sisterhood and miss the friendships.

00:49But also be here for opportunities.

00:51But you can't be playing victim while also being villain at the same time.

00:56And you have to, you know, voice that.

00:58If you're here for opportunities and just voice that's what it is.

01:00But then you can't say, well, no one's here for me at the same time.

01:03Yeah, I think that, at least for season three, the beginning or the first half of it with her was a little rough.

01:09Just because she, like, we knew she was just coming back for Dancing with the Stars.

01:12I'm like, oh, so you don't care about us.

01:13Like, cool.

01:14And I think for me, Mikhail is a little more of a touchy subject.

01:17Just because, like, we were closest with Whitney.

01:19Like, us three, before the show started, like, we hung out, like, twice a week.

01:24Like, we were very, very close.

01:26And so, like, obviously during this show, we've had some friendship fallout.

01:29But I think that's why it's a little more sensitive for us.

01:32At least in the beginning, I'm like, oh, so you don't give a s*** about us.

01:35Like, that sucks.

01:36Because I think deep down, even though, like, we've had our issues, I think at the end of the day, like, we still care about each other.

01:41And we always have wanted, like, things to work out, you know?

01:45And then, like, as you see towards the end of the season, like, things change.

01:48And I would say, like, our relationship, in my opinion, is pretty good with Whitney.

01:53Like, I was just at Dancing with the Stars supporting her last night.

01:55I'm super proud of her.

01:56And she's killing it.

01:58And I want nothing but the best for her.
