Jessi Draper dropped several bombshell allegations regarding her estranged husband, Jordan Ngatikaura, in a new interview.
Draper, 33, sat down to speak with Alex Cooper on Call Her Daddy during the Wednesday, March 25, episode, and the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star revealed that people in her life actually congratulated her when they found out she was getting a divorce.
“Everyone in my life – friends, family, employees – everyone hates [Jordan],” Draper said. “When I got divorced, everyone I’ve told so far has been like, ‘Congratulations!’ Not one person has been like, ‘I’m so sorry.’”
People on social media have echoed similar sentiments after hearing that the former couple was calling it quits. Draper said seeing people’s comments supporting her was “validating in a way” because it made her feel as though she “made the right decision.”
“You know, if everyone feels this way, there’s got to be a reason,” the reality star continued. “I was a little bit in denial for a while. I will say that there’s a part of me – he’s getting ripped apart online right now – and I do feel bad.”

Draper added that because people are talking about “his looks, his personality,” and saying “he’ll never date anyone again,” does make her feel “guilty.”
Ngatikaura, 31, filed for divorce on March 19 and gave a statement to People shortly after he submitted the paperwork.
“This has not been an easy decision and it comes with a heavy heart,” the self-appointed DadTok leader said at the time. “I’m grateful for the shared memories and the lessons. While our paths are now moving in different directions, my priority remains my children and ensuring they feel loved, supported, and protected through this transition. I am committed to handling this next chapter with kindness and respect.”
According to Draper, however, it was her idea to end their marriage. “I told him on Friday the 13th, so not that long ago, and I just said I want a divorce,” the stylist shared. “He definitely didn’t want it, and now he’s the one rushing to do it, which is a little strange.”
During the podcast, Draper also accused Ngatikaura of hiring escorts, noting a woman who worked for the service had sent her “proof.”
