Aspyn Ovard joins The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County when the Hulu spinoff premieres on Thursday, November 12, 2026. She is one of nine women in the cast and a newcomer to the franchise. Jen Affleck is the only cast member crossing over from the original Utah series.
Ovard is not a new face to viewers. She has filmed her life on YouTube since 2011, starting with beauty and fashion videos in high school and growing into one of the platform’s long-running lifestyle creators. Her path to the show runs through a public divorce in 2024, a move from Utah to California, and a throuple relationship she went public with in 2026.

A New Face on Mormon Wives: Orange County
Hulu announced the Orange County spinoff on April 22, 2026, at its Get Real House event in Beverly Hills. The April announcement named eight women, including Chandler Higginson. Jordan McClanahan replaced Higginson in the September 29 teaser, and Jen Affleck joined later as the crossover from the Utah series.
The full season drops at once on November 12, 2026, on Hulu in the United States and on Disney+ internationally. The show follows young mothers in Orange County whose beliefs shape their daily lives, and it puts Ovard in front of a new audience beyond her YouTube following.
The trailer wastes no time on her storyline. In the first-look footage she kisses a man, asks what she would do without him, then turns to kiss a woman and asks the same of her. That moment is the hook for the part of her life viewers will ask about most.
Ovard addressed the casting herself on May 11, 2026, in a YouTube video titled “I’m going on reality tv!!!”. She said she expected questions about the show’s title, because she is neither Mormon nor a wife.
“Obviously, I’m not a wife. I’m not married,” she said in the video.
“There are a lot of Mormon girls in the cast. I think there’s only two of us that are not married.”
Fifteen Years of YouTube Before Hulu
Ovard started posting on YouTube in 2011, while she was still in high school in Utah. Her early videos covered beauty tutorials, do-it-yourself projects, fashion hauls and outfit-of-the-week posts. Over time the channel shifted toward lifestyle vlogs, travel and family life, and she kept posting through marriage, three pregnancies and a divorce.
She marked the scale of that run herself when the show was announced, writing on Instagram: “15 years with you all and now we are going to be on Hulu 2026!!!!!!!!!!” She arrives with an audience she built herself, video by video, over a decade and a half.
She also ran a second channel, Aspyn + Parker, with her then-husband Parker Ferris. That channel carried the couple’s joint vlogs and family content while they were married.
Her recent uploads show a channel still active in the weeks before the premiere. On October 11, 2026, she posted a 47-minute video titled “every detail of how i got into a throuple … story time!!”. On September 13, 2026, she posted “my ivf experience + why i never shared it in 2023”, about her own IVF experience in 2023.
The Divorce From Parker Ferris
Ovard and Parker Ferris went to the same elementary school but did not meet until high school, and started dating when Aspyn was 17. He proposed in August 2015, and they married two months later, in October 2015. She was 19 at the time.
The marriage ended in public view. Ovard filed for divorce on April 1, 2024, the same day she announced the birth of the couple’s third daughter, Elle. Proceedings were paused on April 17, 2024, to negotiate a settlement, and no finalization date has been verified. The timing made the news impossible to miss, and it set the tone for the two years that followed.
She has never given one clear reason for the split. She has hinted that she went through a betrayal with Parker, while also saying she does not believe she was cheated on, as far as she knows. She has said her next partner would be “someone who doesn’t lie.”
The divorce closed a chapter that had shaped most of her adult life. She married at 19, built a family channel with her husband, and spent eight years married before filing. In her May 11, 2026 YouTube video she described the years after the split as hard, saying it had been very, very, very hard to share her life in recent years, and she has said the show feels like a chance to stop hiding parts of her life.
Two and a half months after the filing, her father Casey Jay Ovard died on June 15, 2024, at 48. She said in a video posted in October 2024 that she was 28 when her dad died and had not said anything about it online. Elle’s name leaked publicly through his obituary.
A Move From Utah to California
After the divorce, Ovard moved her family from Salt Lake City, Utah, to California. She now lives in Orange County, which puts her in the middle of the world the spinoff films.
Realtor.com reported that she bought a Newport Beach house for $4.65 million in July 2024. The move gave her a fresh base and a new setting for her videos, and it placed her in the same county as the show’s cast well before Hulu announced the spinoff.
The Throuple With Bri and Billy Davis
Ovard is in a throuple with married couple Bri Davis and Billy Davis, and she calls them her partners. She is dating both of them, with separate relationships with each.
In Ovard’s own telling, in her October 11, 2026 story-time video, the story started with a direct message. Bri slid into Ovard’s DMs in October 2024, about six months after Ovard filed for divorce.
Bri was living in New Jersey with Billy at the time. The two women met in person at the end of October 2024, when Ovard was in Utah for a doctor’s appointment. Ovard flew to New Jersey in mid-November 2024 and met Billy for the first time.
More trips followed, and by May 2025 Bri and Billy were considering a move to California. They made the move five months later, in October 2025.
Ovard went public with the shape of the relationship in a March 10, 2026 TikTok video, after months of fan speculation. She said she had sworn off getting legally married again after her divorce, and that she had told herself she would have a life partner or two instead.
“So when I met Bri and she was married, it didn’t really mean that much to me,” she said. “We can do our thing, and I’m not looking for certain things, and she’s not either.”
She described the setup as a “pretty equal dynamic” and said there were no “weird rules” in the relationship. She also said she prefers not to label her sexuality, and she applies the same thinking to the relationship itself.
She thinks of Bri and Billy as partners rather than by a label, and she has said labels are an internet thing.
She has also said the relationship helped her heal after her marriage ended. “This [has] just honestly healed so many things in me from my previous relationship,” she said in the March video. “Things just kind of make sense now.”
What She Has Said About Faith and the Mormon Label
Ovard is not Mormon now, and she has been open about that from the start. Her father grew up Mormon, and her family went to church for the first part of her life. She was baptized in the LDS Church as a child, but has said religion was not a core piece of her upbringing. She grew up in Utah, married young, and lived inside Mormon culture for years.
That background is the link she points to when people question her casting. “I have so many ties to Mormonism from growing up in Utah, getting married young and just being surrounded by that culture,” she said in her May 2026 video. “I’ve talked about Utah culture and like how it has affected me and shaped my life in so many ways.”
She has also talked about her sexuality in the years since her divorce. She first signalled she was interested in women in October 2024, in a video with rainbow hearts that Bri read as a message to the gay community, and she spoke about exploring her bisexuality and dating women on the Wild ‘Til 9 podcast in March 2025. In her March 2026 TikTok, she said she chooses not to classify or label her sexuality.
The show’s title invites a debate she is ready for. She said in May that she had already seen people criticizing the words “Mormon” and “wife” in the show’s name, and she answered it head-on in her own video rather than waiting for the premiere.
A Mom of Three, With Her Kids Off Camera
Ovard has three daughters with Parker Ferris: Cove, Lola and Elle. As of May 2026, Cove was 6, Lola was 4 and Elle was 2. Elle’s birth was announced on April 1, 2024. Elle was born early, at 34 weeks.
Her children will not appear on the show. Ovard has said she plans to keep them out of it, blurring their faces or filming the back of their heads if they end up in a shot. Protecting their identities is the line she has drawn most clearly around the show.
Details of the custody arrangement have not been made public. TV Insider has reported that they appear to amicably co-parent.
The DIFF Eyewear Line and Brand Work
Ovard’s beauty roots still shape her work off YouTube. In July 2025, she launched a limited-edition eyewear collection with DIFF Eyewear. The frames were named after her daughters: Cove, Lola and Elle. The line covered sunglasses and glasses, and DIFF promoted it as a summer collection.
The deal fits the channel she started with. Beauty and fashion were her first subjects in 2011, and brand work in that space has run alongside her vlogs ever since. The DIFF collection tied the two sides of her work together, beauty and vlogging, in one launch.
