Chase McWhorter Clears Air on Kiss with Jessi Draper

0:00On April 7th, Chase McCordor from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives finally cleared the air about their kiss with castmate Jesse Draper. The 30-year-old said on Harry Jousey's boyfriend material podcast that it was just a quick smooch at a party after a few drinks, nothing more. Rumors blew away out of proportion, but he insists they are only friends. This all went down last month amid Jesse's fresh divorce from Jordan and Gautacora in March. Chase, who split from his ex-wife Miranda McWordor, a fellow castmate in 2024, wanted to cheer Jesse up by taking her out with friends. For a birthday bash downtown, Miranda felt disrespected when she heard, calling Chase an idiot after he confessed the next day. He owned up right away, saying honesty beats being a lying fool. Jesse smoothed things over by sending Miranda a voice note and flowers with a note. Chase has a history in this tight circle, having joined Taylor Frankie Paul's soft-swinging parties while married to Miranda, then briefly dating.
