Whitney Leavitt is leaving “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”
The reality star announced her exit from the Hulu series after four seasons during her final performance in “Chicago” on Broadway on Sunday night.
Leavitt’s rep also confirmed the news to Deadline.
Im a video from the performance published by TMZ, Leavitt stayed in character as Roxie Hart while she read a headline from a newspaper that revealed her “SLOMW” exit.
“What is that?” she said, pointing to the open paper. “‘Whitney’…let me see. ‘Whitney Leavitt Announces She’s Leaving The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.’”
The 32-year-old then turned to the crowd and opened her arms, as the audience cheered for her.
Page Six has reached out to Hulu for comment.
Leavitt joined the hit reality show when it premiered in September 2024, alongside Taylor Frankie Paul, Jen Affleck, Jessi Draper, Demi Engemann, Mikayla Matthews, Mayci Neeley and Layla Taylor.
But after her impressive run on “Dancing with the Stars” last year helped blow up her career, Leavitt hinted that she was going to leave “SLOMW.”
“I’m figuring it out in real time,” she told the Hollywood Reporter in March. “But it feels like that’s the trajectory of where it’s going.”
The mother of three added, “But again, I wouldn’t be where I am without it, but it feels like it’s time to challenge myself in other ways and fulfill these dreams and passions that I’ve been trying to get even before the show.”
Page Six confirmed last month that the reality show started filming Season 5 following a halt triggered by multiple domestic violence abuse investigations involving Paul, 31, and her ex Dakota Mortensen.
In addition, Paul’s season of “The Bachelorette” was pulled by ABC in March after a disturbing video was leaked showing a 2023 domestic violence incident between her and her ex.
According to People, the former couple will not be apart of filming “SLOMW” Season 5, but a source told TMZ that Paul will get in front of the camera “at some point.”
On April 14, Salt Lake County District Attorney’s office declined to file new domestic violence charges against Paul due to an “evidentiary issue” in the investigations.
However, Paul is still embroiled in a heated custody battle with Mortensen, 33, after he petitioned the courts for an order of protection against her.
In a devastating blow to Paul, Mortensen was granted temporary custody of their 2-year-old son, Ever, while Paul only has “supervised” visitation with the toddler.
