“Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” star Layla Taylor shared a glimpse of her new girlfriend on social media after coming out as bisexual.
Taylor shared a new video holding hands with a woman out of the frame so fans could only see her tattooed arm.
“‘You’re glowing lately.’ Thanks I’m dating a woman now,” Taylor wrote atop the clip.
“Chivalry isn’t dead it’s [with] the lesbians,” she added in the caption.
Her “SLOMW” co-star Jen Affleck commented, “You look so happy 🥺❤️,” in support of her new relationship with the mystery woman.
Fans wrote that the reality star seems to be her “authentic happy self” and that they “love this” for her.
Taylor came out as bisexual during her June 29 appearance on Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast.
“I’m gay and I’m bi and date women and men,” she proudly said at the time.
The model also divulged that she is currently “talking to” a woman, who kicked off their romance by “liking” one of her Instagram photos, but she did not name the person.
Although she kept the woman’s identity a secret, she gushed over how “emotionally aware” and “very patient” the individual is.
“She’s just been very understanding and letting me take this at my own pace because it is just still foreign to me and it is so new. [It’s the] level of understanding and just being there for me,” Taylor said.
As for why the she chose to come out when she did, Taylor explained, “It’s just something that I honestly didn’t really know how to formally address for a long period of my life.”
“I’m very proud now to be out,” she added.
The Hulu personality chose not to come out to her “SLOMW” co-stars prior to her podcast appearance because “it’s not really a text.”

“I feel like I want to see them in person to let them know. So they might see this before and then I’ll talk to them in person the next time I see them,” she explained.
Her co-star Miranda McWhorter joined Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” the day after she came out and exclusively told us her emotional reaction.
“I cried when she told me,” she told hosts Danny Murphy and Evan Real. “I was so happy for her.”
McWhorter — who was initially “taken aback” by the news — said Taylor was “oozing relief [and] confidence” and “glowing” after coming out.
Several other cast members voiced their support via social media with warm messages.
Taylor was previously married to Clayton Wessel, with whom she has co-parented sons Oliver and Maxwell since their 2023 split.
Since the couple called it quits, she has dated Cameron Jolley and Mason McWhorter, with both relationships documented on the reality show.
